Unexpected photochemistry and charge-transfer complexes of [CB11H12]−carborane

Charge-transfer mediated photochemistry in alkene–O2 complexes

The photochemistry of a series of alkene–O2 complexes was studied in a supersonic expansion using a resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization probe of the O(P j) photoproduct at 226 nm. The relative yield of oxygen atoms from each complex was correlated to the ionization potential of the alkene species and indicates that initial excitation of an intermolecular charge-transfer state mediates the...

Photochemistry and electron-transfer mechanism of transition metal oxalato complexes excited in the charge transfer band.

The photoredox reaction of trisoxalato cobaltate (III) has been studied by means of ultrafast extended x-ray absorption fine structure and optical transient spectroscopy after excitation in the charge-transfer band with 267-nm femtosecond pulses. The Co-O transient bond length changes and the optical spectra and kinetics have been measured and compared with those of ferrioxalate. Data presented...

Determination of Trimethoprim Based on Charge-Transfer Complexes Formation

A spectrophotometric study concerning the interaction between Trimethoprim (TMP) ,Sulfamethoxazole (SFMx), as n-donor and 2,3-dichloro-5,6- dicyano-P-benzoquinine (DDQ) and chloranilic acid (CA) as π-acceptor were been performed at 25°C. The results of interaction of CA and DDQwith TMP indicate the formation of a 1:1, 1:2, charge transfer complexes through non equilibrium reactions. In the case...

Photochemistry of Transition Metal Complexes Induced by Outer-Sphere Charge Transfer Excitation

The intermolecular (outer sphere, OS) interaction of a reducing and an oxidizing metal complex generates a new optical transition involving charge transfer (CT) from the electron donor to the acceptor. OS C T transitions are classified according to the redox site (metal or ligand). Generally, the interaction between donor and acceptor is facilitated by ion pairs consisting of an oxidizing compl...
