Synthesis and cation-mediated electron transfer in intramolecular fluorescence quenching of donor–acceptor podands: observation of Marcus inverted region in forward electron transfer reactions
نویسندگان
چکیده
The synthesis of a series of donor–acceptor podands is described. The dependence of the rate constants of intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer on the exothermicity of the reaction was studied by stationary and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. H NMR and computational studies suggest that the conformational change of the podands is restricted by K binding. As a result, the occurrence of highly exothermic photoinduced electron transfer reaction within the Marcus inverted region was observed.

Two classes of fullerene-based donor-bridge-acceptor (D-B-A) systems containing donors of varying oxidation potentials have been synthesized. These systems include fullerenes linked to heteroaromatic donor groups (phenothiazine/phenoxazine) as well as substituted anilines (p-anisidine/p-toluidine). In contrast to the model compound, an efficient intramolecular electron transfer is observed from...
