Abstract:Abstract—
Kinetics of photoinduced electron transfer from a lipid functionalized pyrene, 1-(10-(6(8)-octadecylpyrenyl)decanoyl)-2-hexanoyl-.sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine (OPyPC), to a two component viologen acceptor system have been measured by laser flash photolysis. N, N'-tetramethylene-2,2'-bi-pyridinium ion (DQ2+) and N, N' -dipropyl-4,4'-bipyridinium sulfonate (PVS), have been utilized as the primary and secondary acceptors. It has been shown that utilization of a lipid with a net negatively charged phosphatidylglycerol headgroup provides a driving force for localizing high concentrations of primary acceptor (DQ2+) in the region of donor. Subsequently, the charged interface can act to maintain long-term separation between the oxidized pyrene donor (OPyPC+) and the reduced secondary acceptor, PVS-. When a dioleoyl lipid is used, reaction of (OPyPC+) with the double bond competes significantly with back reaction. However, substitution of diphytylphosphatidylglycerol for the dioleoyl analog results in a cation lifetime of about 0.5 ms and a continued very long-lived reduced species (?4 h). Quantum yields of ?0.15 may be obtained in this system.
