Intermolecular electron-transfer catalyzed on nanoparticle surfaces.
Surface-functionalized nanoparticles enhance the rate of electron transfer (ET) between Cyt c(Fe(2+)) and Co(phen)(3)(3+) by a factor of 10(5) through simultaneous electrostatic binding of an ET donor and acceptor.
متن کاملAn engineered CuA Amicyanin capable of intermolecular electron transfer reactions.
The type I copper center of amicyanin was replaced with a binuclear CuA center. To create this model CuA protein, a portion of the amino acid sequence that contains three of the ligands to the native type I copper center of Paracoccus denitrificans amicyanin was replaced with the corresponding portion of sequence that provides five ligands for the CuA center of cytochrome c oxidase from P. deni...
متن کاملIntermolecular electron transfer reactivity determined from cross-rate studies.
Electron-transfer cross-reactions between neutral molecules and their radical cations spanning a wide range of structural type and intrinsic reactivity have been analyzed using classical Marcus theory. The principal factor found to govern intrinsic reactivity is the inner-shell bond reorganization energy. The HOMO-LUMO overlap of alkyl groups on reacting molecules is generally sufficient to pro...
متن کاملElectron Transfer and Solvent-Mediated Electronic Localization in Molecular Photocatalysis.
This work provides a detailed mechanism for electron transfer in a heterodinuclear complex designed as a model system in which to study homogeneous molecular photocatalysis. With efficient Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics simulations, we show how intermediate, charge-separated states can mediate the electron transfer. We observe how Jahn-Teller distortion effects play out in solution, when t...
متن کاملSpin-orbit quenching via solvent mediated electron transfer
We simulate the 395 nm photodissociation of I2 2 embedded in clusters of 6 to 22 CO2 molecules. In the isolated molecule, photodissociation at this wavelength leads exclusively to spin-orbit excited iodine (I*) plus I. In the larger clusters we observe efficient electronic relaxation, leading both to dissociated products containing ground-state iodine and to recombined products containing I2 2 ...
