Photochemistry of Transition Metal Complexes Induced by Outer-Sphere Charge Transfer Excitation
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 complex cation and a reducing complex anion. There are also ion pairs which are composed of a metal complex and an organic counter ion as electron donor or acceptor. In addition, the review

Photoredox Reaction of [Hg(cyclam)|2+[Co(CO)4r Induced by Outer Sphere Charge Transfer Excitation
Photoredox processes induced by metal-tometal charge transfer (MMCT) excitation have a t tracted much attention in recent years [1-4]. These processes may be exploited for applications in arti ficial photosynthesis and photocatalysis [5, 6], They also facilitate our understanding of optical and thermal electron transfer in general [7, 8], A point of particular interest is the relationship be...
متن کاملPhotochemistry 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...
