Strong electronic coupling and electron transfer in a Ce2@Ih-C80–H2P electron donor acceptor conjugate

Electron transfer through exTTF bridges in electron donor-acceptor conjugates.

Rigid and soluble electron donor-acceptor conjugates combining exTTF and/or TTF as donors and C60 as acceptor have been synthesized; fluorescence and transient absorption measurements confirm the generation of charge-separated radical-ion pairs with lifetimes in the micros timescale.

Solvent as Electron Donor: Donor/Acceptor Electronic Coupling Is a Dynamical Variable

Quantum effects in electron transfer reactions with strong electronic coupling

Ion-mediated electron transfer in a supramolecular donor-acceptor ensemble.

Ion binding often mediates electron transfer in biological systems as a cofactor strategy, either as a promoter or as an inhibitor. However, it has rarely, if ever, been exploited for that purpose in synthetic host-guest assemblies. We report here that strong binding of specific anions (chloride, bromide, and methylsulfate but not tetrafluoroborate or hexafluorophosphate) to a tetrathiafulvalen...

Ultrafast Photoinduced Electron Transfer in Spiro-type Donor- Acceptor Systems

Perpendicular orientation of the electron donor in relation to the acceptor in the ground state seems to contribute significantly to high rate constants of the photoinduced intramolecular electron transfer (PET) in electron donor-acceptor (DA) type molecules [1]. A very interesting class of molecules in this respect are systems build around a spiro-type carbon atom, separating mutually orthogon...
