Abstract The irradiation of [Au(CN)2]- in oxygen-saturated acetonitrile leads to photooxidation of Au(I). In the presence of additional chloride [Au(CN)2CL2]- is formed with φ= 0.5 x 10-4 at λirr = 254 nm. It is assumed that [Au(CN)2]- in its metal-to-ligand charge transfer state undergoes an excited state electron transfer to oxygen in the primary photochemical step.

Bislactone linked porphyrin-fullerene dyads show promising photophysical properties for mimicking photosynthesis. Optical and transient displacement current investigations of the dyads demonstrate efficient intramolecular electron transfer from porphyrin to fullerene with the lifetime of the charge transfer state on the order of a few nanoseconds in low polarity solvents. Solvent polarity effect on the yield of charge separation and conformations in the charge transfer state are investigated in detail. The facile synthesis could readily be applied to constructing extended compounds with high yields of photoinduced charge separation.

Neither the rates of photoinduced charge separation nor charge recombination account for the substantial damage observed in the 5′-ABrU sequence.
