Abstract

A rigid rod-like organic molecular ensemble comprised of a triarylamine electron donor, a 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) ligand, and a 9,10-anthraquinone acceptor was synthesized and reacted with suitable metal precursors to yield triads with Ru(bpy)32+, Os(bpy)32+, and [Ir(2-(p-tolyl)pyridine)2(bpy)]+ photosensitizers. Photoexcitation of these triads leads to long-lived charge-separated states (τ = 80–1300 ns) containing a triarylamine cation and an anthraquinone anion, as observed by transient absorption spectroscopy. From a combined electrochemical and optical spectroscopic study, the thermodynamics and kinetics for the individual photoinduced charge-separation and thermal charge-recombination events were determined; in some cases, measurements on suitable donor–sensitizer or sensitizer–acceptor dyads were necessary. In the case of the ruthenium and iridium triads, the fully charge-separated state is formed in nearly quantitative yield.
