Proton-coupled electron transfer from a luminescent excited state.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A luminescent cationic iridium complex with a 2,2'-biimidazole ligand forms hydrogen-bonded 1 : 1 adducts with benzoate anions; photoexcitation of the metal complex in presence of 3,5-dinitrobenzoate triggers a proton-coupled electron transfer.

Photochemistry between a ruthenium(II) pyridylimidazole complex and benzoquinone: simple electron transfer versus proton-coupled electron transfer.
A ruthenium(II) complex with two 4,4'-bis(trifluoromethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine chelates and a 2-(2'-pyridyl)imidazole ligand was synthesized and characterized by electrochemical and optical spectroscopic means. The respective complex has the potential to act as a combined electron-proton donor when promoted to its long-lived (3)MLCT excited state with visible light. The possibility of proton-couple...
متن کاملProton-coupled charge-transfer reactions and photoacidity of N,N-dimethyl-3-arylpropan-1-ammonium chloride salts.
Photoinduced intermolecular proton-transfer processes from N,N-dimethyl-3-arylpropan-1-ammonium chloride salts (ArCl, with aryl as 1-pyrenyl, 9-anthryl, and 2-naphtyl) to a solvent molecule have been investigated by steady-state and dynamic spectroscopic methods. The intermolecular proton-transfers are coupled either to the formation of an exciplex or to a solvent-separated ion pair in what we ...
متن کاملPhotoinduced proton coupled electron transfer in 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)-benzothiazole.
We characterize the structural and electronic changes during the photoinduced enol-keto tautomerization of 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)-benzothiazole (HBT) in a nonpolar solvent (tetrachloroethene). We quantify the redistribution of electronic charge and intramolecular proton translocation in real time by combining UV-pump/IR-probe spectroscopy and quantum chemical modeling. We find that the photophysi...
متن کاملRedox modulation of flavin and tyrosine determines photoinduced proton-coupled electron transfer and photoactivation of BLUF photoreceptors.
Photoinduced electron transfer in biological systems, especially in proteins, is a highly intriguing matter. Its mechanistic details cannot be addressed by structural data obtained by crystallography alone because this provides only static information on a given redox system. In combination with transient spectroscopy and site-directed manipulation of the protein, however, a dynamic molecular p...
متن کاملKinetic isotope effect of proton-coupled electron transfer in a hydrogen bonded phenol-pyrrolidino[60]fullerene.
Proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) plays a central role in photosynthesis and potentially in solar-to-fuel systems. We report a spectroscopy study on a phenol-pyrrolidino[60]fullerene. Quenching of the singlet excited state from 1 ns to 250 ps is assigned to PCET. A H/D exchange study reveals a kinetic isotope effect (KIE) of 3.0, consistent with a concerted PCET mechanism.
