LETTERS Photoinduced Organic Donor to Metal Electron Transfer across a Rigid Spacer Thomas A. Perkins, Brian T. Hauser, John R. Eyler, and Kirk S. Schanze* Department of Chemistry, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida 3261 I (Received: August 20, 1999)

Two compounds (b)ReCH-DTF, which contain the metal complex chromophore (b)Re’(C0)3 (where b = 2,2’-bipyrazine or 5,5’-bis(N,N-diethylcarbamido)-2,2’-bipyridine)covalently linked to a 1,3-benzodithiafulvene (DTF) electron donor via a trans-l,4-cyclohexane (CH) spacer, have been prepared and studied by emission and transient absorption spectroscopy. Steady-state and time-resolved emission data indicate that the metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (MLCT) excited state of the (b)ReCH-DTF complexes is quenched compared to the model compounds (b)ReCH which contain the (b)Re1(CO)3 chromophore but not the DTF donor. The MLCT quenching is ascribed to a rapid intramolecular DTF Re electron transfer (ET) which competes with normal radiative and nonradiative MLCT decay. The Occurrence of intramolecular ET is confirmed by nanosecond transient absorption studies which reveal that the charge-transfer state, (b’-)Re1(C0)3-CH-DTF‘+, is formed rapidly following photoexcitation. The rate constants for forward ET (DTF Re) in the (b)ReCH-DTF complexes at 25 OC were determined from time-resolved emission data in CH$N and in CH2C12,and the activation parameters for forward ET in CH3CN were determined from temperature-dependent emission data. The rates for back ET were determined from the decay of the transient absorption in CH3CN and CH2CI2.

We have developed a synthetic methodology that allows the use of transition-metal chromophores such as (b)Re'(CO), (where b is a bidentate diimine ligand such as 2,2'-bipyridine) in studies of photoinduced electron transfer (ET) across rigid organic spacers. This effort affords a method to tune the redox properties of the excited-state chromophore and thereby to study the effect of driving force on ET across a variety of rigid organic spacers.*' In a project aimed at testing the new synthetic methodology, the two novcl trans- 1,4-cyclohexane-bridged complexes (b)ReCH-DTF were prepared.

Results and Discussion Cyclic voltammetry was carried out on the (b)ReCH-DTF complexes in CH3CN and CH2CI2 with tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (TBAP) as a supporting electrolyte. Potentials are referenced to the SSCE electrode (+0.236 V vs NHE). Cathodic scans of each complex reveal a single reversible wave with a half-wave potential of -0.65 V (bpz) and -0.90 V (dab) in CH3CN and -0.5 V (bpz) and -0.86 V (dab) in CH2C12. In each case the cathodic wave corresponds to reduction of the coordinated diimine ligand. Anodic scans reveal a single irreversible wave with a peak potential of +0.97 V (bpz) and +1.06 V (dab) in CH,CN and +1.06 V (bpz) and +1.07 V (dab) in CH2CI2. A similar irreversible wave was observed for CH-DTF. The irreversible anodic process is assigned to oxidation of the DTF moiety. By use of the electrochemical data and the energy of the d*(Re) x*(diimine) MLCT excited state, the free energy changes for forward and back ET in the (b)ReCH-DTF complexes were estimated (AGFETand AGBET, respectively; Table II).25 The data

indicate that the photoinduced forward ET process is moderately exothermic in both solvents and is slightly more exothermic in (bpz)ReCH-DTF than in (dab)ReCH-DTF. Note that the back ET reaction is strongly exothermic in both solvents and is more exothermic in (dab)ReCH-DTF than in (bpz)ReCH-DTF. The lowest energy absorption band for all of the Re complexes occurs at approximately 400 nm (c = 4 X I O 3 M-I cm-I). This band is assigned to the dn(Re) n*(diimine) MLCT absorption. Photoexcitation of each complex into this absorption results in the appearance of a broad, long-wavelength emission band which is assigned to the MLCT excited state. The interesting feature is that the lifetime ( 7 ) and quantum yield (@em) of the MLCT emission is significantly lower for each of the (b)ReCH-DTF complexes compared to the corresponding (b)ReCH complex (Table I). The emission quenching in the DTF-substituted complexes is attributed to the occurrence of forward ET (see eq

The fact that ET is the predominant mechanism for excitedstate quenching in the (b)ReCH-DTF complexes is supported by the results of several transient absorption experiments. For example, pulsed laser photolysis of the model complex (bpz)ReCH (Nd:YAG, X = 355 nm, 5 ns fwhm, 8 mJ) produces a transient that absorbs weakly throughout the visible region that is assigned to the dn(Re) r*(bpz) MLCT excited state (Figure la). The transient decays with a lifetime of 36 ns in CH2C12/TBAP,27which is in excellent agreement with the lifetime determined from the MLCT emission decay (37 ns). By contrast, laser photolysis of (bpz)ReCH-DTF produces a transient that absorbs strongly in = 530 nm, Figure Ib) that decays with the visible region ,X(, a lifetime of 27 ns in CH3CN and 32 ns in CH2CI2/TBAP. The strong transient absorption observed for (bpz)ReCH-DTF suggests that the charge-transfer state, (bpz-)Re'(CO),-DTF+, is produced by photoinduced intramolecular ET; the visible transient absorption band is very likely due to the donor radical cation, DTF'+. The transient absorption spectrum of (dab)ReCH-DTF is qualitatively similar to the spectrum of (bpz)ReCH-DTF, suggesting that forward ET occurs in this complex as well. The decay lifetime of the transient absorption for (dab)ReCH-DTF is 77 ns in CHJN and 98 ns in CH2CI2/TBAP. Further evidence that the visible absorption band is due to DTF" was provided by laser flash photolysis of a mixture of the model complex (bpz)ReCH and CH-DTF in C H j C N (c = 5 X and 2 X M, respectively). In the bimolecular experiment, a visible transient absorption was observed that was identical with that observed following flash excitation of the covalently linked complex (bpz)ReCH-DTF; however, in the bimolecular system the transient absorption decayed with a half-life of approximately 25 ks. These observations are consistent with the following reaction sequence:

The half-life observed for the decay is consistent with the rate expected for diffusion-controlled reaction of two species present at an initial concentration of approximately M.

Force field calculations indicate that the trans- 1 ,Ccyclohexane spacer is restricted to the equatorial, equatorial conformation and that the only degrees of freedom involve rotation about the bonds between the ring and the DTF and styryl-pyridine substituents. The separation distance between the Re atom and the center of the DTF moiety is approximately 16 8, and is not significantly affected by the bond rotations mentioned above. Note that both kFETand kBET are comparatively large (ranging from IO7 to IO9 s-l), despite the large separation distance between the Re center and the DTF donor.

Network Recrystatllzation in a Supercritical Fluid D. C. Steytler,* P.S. Moulson, S. A. Clark, and M. L. Parker AFRC Institute of Food Research, Colney Lane, Norwich NR4 7UA. U.K. (Receiued: September 25, 1990)

A new mechanism of network recrystallization has been demonstrated in supercritical C 0 2 in which a "saw tooth" pressure oscillation has been employed to induce growth of a filament microstructure in a crystalline material (aspartame). During the pressure cycles repeated deposition of material occurs onto the filaments which ultimately grow and interconnect to form small, discrete clusters of approximately 100 p n diameter.

Introduction

The benefits of supercritical fluids (SCF's) have been widely reviewed' and reports of their application in a variety of extraction processes are continually appearing2v3 Moreover, in recent years growing consumer awareness of residual solvent levels has led to increasing interest in applications of S C F C 0 2 extraction in the food indus t ry.435 Apart from the natural benefits of a nontoxic, nonflammable medium, C 0 2 , with a critical temperature of 31.05 OC, has many advantages over conventional petrochemical solvents. In particular, the high degree of compressibility in the S C F state enables large changes in density which in turn affect solvation. Under the control of pressure (and temperature) this facilitates selective separation of components. Also the high vapor pressure of C 0 2 ensures its complete removal at low temperatures so that volatile ( I ) McHugh, M. A.; Krukonis, V. J. Supercritical Fluid Extraction.

and thermolabile substances are completely retained. This is particularly important in the recovery of more "natural" flavors and essential o i k 6 Chemical degradation is also minimized in C 0 2 extraction by the provision of a chemically inert, nonoxidative environment. Recently, interest in SCF's has broadened to include applications as a reaction and as a solvent for controlled recrystallization. The unique control of density through pressure (and temperature) in SCF's offers a new route to nucleation of solutes that is not provided by liquid solvents. One technique that has been commonly adopted, and is inherent in the separation stage of many extraction processes, is rapid expansion/decompression (6) Moyler, D. A.; Heath, H. B.
