We introduce a new caged glutamate, based in a ruthenium bipyridyl core, that undergoes heterolytic cleavage after irradiation with visible light with wavelengths up to 532 rim, yielding free glutamate in less than 50 ns. Glutamate photorelease occurs also efficiently following two-photon (2P) excitation at 800 nm, and has a functional cross section of 0.14 GM. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
