Hybridization-based reactions have attracted significant attention. The nucleic acid templated photocatalyzed azide reduction using catalytic amounts of a [Ru(bpy)₂phen]²⁺ conjugate is reported. The reaction could be performed with as little as 2% of the Ru nucleic acid probe and was shown to productively unquench 7-azido-coumarin as well as uncage a small molecule.
