Photoinduced electron transfer across a molecular wall : coumarin dyes as donors and methyl viologen and TiO2 as acceptors
Coumarins C-153, C-480, and C-1 formed 1:2 (guest:host) complexes with a water-soluble cavitand having eight carboxylic acid groups (OA) in aqueous borate buffer solution. The complexes were photoexcited in the presence of electron acceptors (methyl viologen, MV(2+), or TiO(2)) to probe the possibil...

Zusammenfassung: | Coumarins C-153, C-480, and C-1 formed 1:2 (guest:host) complexes with a water-soluble cavitand having eight carboxylic acid groups (OA) in aqueous borate buffer solution. The complexes were photoexcited in the presence of electron acceptors (methyl viologen, MV(2+), or TiO(2)) to probe the possibility of electron transfer between a donor and an acceptor physically separated by a molecular wall. In solution at basic pH, the dication MV(2+) was associated to the exterior of the complex C-153OA(2), as suggested by diffusion constants (~1.2 × 10(-6) cm(2)/s) determined by DOSY NMR. The fluorescence of C-153@OA(2) was quenched in the presence of increasing amounts of MV(2+) and Stern-Volmer plots of I(o)/I and τ(o)/τ vs [MV(2+)] indicated that the quenching was static. As per FT-IR-ATR spectra, the capsule C-153@OA(2) was bound to TiO(2) nanoparticle films. Selective excitation (λ(exc) = 420) of the above bound complex resulted in fluorescence quenching. When adsorbed on insulating ZrO(2) nanoparticle films, excitation of the complex resulted in a broad fluorescence spectrum centered at 500 nm and consistent with C-153 being within the lipophilic capsule interior. Consistent with the above results, colloidal TiO(2) quenched the emission while colloidal ZrO(2) did not |
