Ab initio QM/MM study of excited state electron transfer between pyrene and 4,4′‐bis(dimethylamino)‐diphenylmethane with different solvent systems: Role of hydrogen bonding within solvent molecules

The exciplex is a charge transfer species formed in the process of electron transfer between an electron donor and an electron acceptor and hence is very sensitive to solvent polarity. In order to understand the role of solvent in exciplex formation between pyrene (PY) and 4,4′‐bis(dimethylamino)diphenylmethane (DMDPM), we used two types of solvent approximations: an implicit solvent model and an explicit solvent model. The difference in energies between the excited and the meta‐stable Frank–Condon state (ΔE) of the structures were assumed to correspond to the emission maximum of the exciplex in different solvents. The ΔE values show the trend of stabilization of the exciplex with an increase in solvent polarity. This trend in stabilization is substantially more prominent in the explicit solvent model than that with the implicit solvent model. The ΔE value obtained in methanol reflects equal stabilization compared to that in a more polar solvent, N,N‐dimethylformamide. This extra stabilization of the exciplex may be explained on the basis of the H‐bonding capability of the protic solvent, methanol. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2005     

Fourier transform-EPR studies of photoinduced electron transfer in homogeneous and micellar solutions

Fourier transform (FT) EPR was used to study the pulsed-laser-induced electron transfer from porphyrins to quinones in homogeneous and micellar solutions. By monitoring the EPR signal of the quinone anion radicals as a function of delay time (τ_d) between laser and microwave pulses, with τ_d ranging from nanoseconds to 1 millisecond, information was obtained on the kinetics of free radical formation and decay. The time evolution of the signal also gave an insight into the chemically induced dynamic electron polarization (CIDEP) mechanisms that affect signal amplitudes. FT-EPR spectra of electron transfer products generated in micellar solution provide evidence for the generation of long-lived spincorrelated radical pairs.

Self-organized monolayer assemblies of octopusporphyrins: photoinduced electron transfer and O 2 coordination in aqueous media

Bolaamphiphilic tetraresorcinolporphyrins with eight long side chains (octopusporphyrins) and their metal complexes form monolayered assemblies in bulk aqueous solution. The nano-structure, the photoinduced electron transfers and the O₂ coordination of these octopusporphyrin assemblies are described. In the micellar fibers of 1a and 1b, a unique spherical arrangement of eight methyl groups on both sides of the porphyrin ring plane provides hydrophobic porphyrin centers which align in a string of pearls. Exciton calculations indicated a tilt stacking porphyrins arrangement with a separation of 11 Å. These fibers fluoresced strongly; electron transfer reaction was therefore observed between the porphyrin center and hydrophobic quenchers as well as hydrophilic quenchers. The fibers were also active as photocatalysts in the reduction of dimethylviologen by triethanolamine. Octopusporphyrins with different metal centers can also produce fibrous aggregates, for example, H₂P/Zn(II)P and Zn(II)P/Fe(III)P couples. The fluorescence quenching of Zn(II)P in the Zn(II)P/Fe(III)P hybrid fibers can be ascribed to the intermolecular electron transfer within the fibers. In H₂P/Zn(II)P couple, excitation energy transfer from excited Zn¹*P to H₂P occurred after photoexcitation. Octopusporphyrin with four dialkylglycerophosphocholine groups on both sides of the ring plane ( 2b ) forms spherical unilamellar vesicles. Based on cryomicroscopy, a white line was observed with a diameter of 15 Å in the middle of the membrane which are obviously a porphyrin layer with low molecular packing. The octopusheme ( 2c ) vesicles prepared in a similar manner with 20-fold excess molar coexistence of 1-dodecyl-2-methylimidazole (DMIm) can bind and release oxygen reversibly at 25°C. Moreover, water-soluble octopusporphyrin ( 3a ) produced fluorescent and non-fluorescent monolayer assemblies by anion exchange of the head groups, e.g. 3a with sodium perchlorate showed planar sheets. An exciton calculation is consistent with a two-dimensional arrangement with porphyrin separations of 25.6 and 17.4 Å in the x- and y-directions, respectively. External addition of negatively charged electron acceptors, naphtoquinone sulfonate and anthraquinone sulfonate, led to partial quenching of the fluorescence of the central porphyrin layer. The results have been evaluated using equations derived for this special quenching. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Quantum electron transfer processes induced by thermo-coherent state

When the reactant surface is not in a thermal equilibrium, but in a thermo-coherent state we have derived the rate and discussed about the quantum features of the rate. In the limit of very low and very high temperature the expressions are derived analytically and compared with the case of thermal distribution. We have investigated the dependence of temperature on the rate due to displacement, distortion of the harmonic potential energy surfaces of the reactant and product manifold.
