Scientific Significance

Abstract The scientific significance of excited-state aromaticity concerns with the elucidation of processes and properties in the excited states. Here, we focus on TMTQ, an oligomer composed of a central 1,6-methano[10]annulene and 5-dicyanomethyl-thiophene peripheries (acceptor-donor-acceptor system), and investigate a two-electron transfer process dominantly stabilized by an aromatization in the low-energy lying excited state. Our spectroscopic measurements quantitatively observe the shift of two π-electrons between donor and acceptors. It is revealed that this two-electron transfer process accompanies the excited-state aromatization, producing a Baird aromatic 8π core annulene in TMTQ. Biradical character on each terminal dicyanomethylene group of TMTQ allows a pseudo triplet-like configuration on the 8π core annulene with multiexcitonic nature, which stabilizes the energetically unfavorable two-charge separated state by the formation of Baird aromatic core annulene. This finding provides a comprehensive understanding of the role of excited-state aromaticity and insight to designing functional photoactive materials.

Excitation Process

Photoacoustic spectroscopy provides information about both amplitude and phase of the response of a system to an optical excitation process. This paper presents the studies of the phase in the electron transfer process between octaethylporphyn (OEP) and quinone molecules dispersed in a polymeric matrix. It was observed a tendency in the phase behavior to small values only in the spectral region near to 620 nm, while for shorter wavelength did not show any tendency. These measurements suggested that the electron transfer to acceptor occurred with the participation of octaethylporphyn singlet excited state.

Electron Transfer Processes

This chapter continues our discussion of electron transfer processes, now focusing on the interface between molecular systems and solid conductors. Interest in such processes has recently surged within the emerging field of molecular electronics, itself part of a general multidisciplinary effort on nanotechnology. Notwithstanding new concepts, new experimental and theoretical methods, and new terminology, the start of this interest dates back to the early days of electrochemistry, marked by the famous experiments of Galvani and Volta in the late eighteenth century. The first part of this chapter discusses electron transfer in what might now be called “traditional” electrochemistry where the fundamental process is electron transfer between a molecule or a molecular ion and a metal electrode. The second part constitutes an introduction to molecular electronics, focusing on the problem of molecular conduction, which is essentially electron transfer (in this context better termed electron transmission) between two metal electrodes through a molecular layer or sometimes even a single molecule. In Chapter 16 we have focused on electron transfer processes of the following characteristics: (1) Two electronic states, one associated with the donor species, the other with the acceptor, are involved. (2) Energetics is determined by the electronic energies of the donor and acceptor states and by the electrostatic solvation of the initial and final charge distributions in their electronic and nuclear environments. (3) The energy barrier to the transfer process originates from the fact that electronic and nuclear motions occur on vastly different timescales. (4) Irreversibility is driven by nuclear relaxation about the initial and final electronic charge distributions. How will this change if one of the two electronic species is replaced by a metal? We can imagine an electron transfer process between a metal substrate and a molecule adsorbed on its surface, however the most common process of this kind takes place at the interface between a metal electrode and an electrolyte solution, where the molecular species is an ion residing in the electrolyte, near the metal surface. Electron transfer in this configuration is the fundamental process of electrochemistry.

The effect of titania-silica binaries on the processes of PET and the decay kinetics of the Anthracene (An) fluorescence and An radical cation in presence of the co-adsorbed electron donor N,Ndimethylaniline (DMA) has been studied. The fluorescence of excited An adsorbed on pure silica is quenched by the addition of DMA, while co-adsorption of DMA on Ti/Si binaries resulted in increase of fluorescence intensity of adsorbed An. We suggest that competitive adsorption between DMA and An results in DMA occupying more active “titania” sites causing the shift of An molecules to weaker adsorption sites located on the silica support. An and DMA molecules being adsorbed simultaneously on the surface, effectively produce reduced titanium ions due to an electron transfer process. These data appear to lend weight to the suggestion of a pre-exciplex An-DMA state on the surface and effective PET from the excited molecular pair to the acceptor sites on the surface. These sites may be titania aggregates, or titania ions when there is a low content of Ti in the binaries.
