Modulation of Heterogeneous Electron Transfer Dynamics: Osmium Bis-Bipyridyl Triazole Monolayers

摘要

Direct modulation of bridge-mediated electron transfer dynamics has wide-ranging implications,from sensor development to understanding biological electron transfer reactions.The structure of the bridging ligand between electron donor and acceptor moieties can drastically affect the rate of electron transfer.An important goal is to develop systems in which the bridge structure can be reversibly altered by a change in the local microenvironment,so as to modulate the rate of electron transfer.These systems can provide an insight into the role of bridge electronic levels in mediated electron transfer reactions.
