Triplet Excited States

The dynamics of naphthalene derivatives with different hydrophobicities bound to F127 polyethyleneoxide-polypropyleneoxide-polyethyleneoxide (PEO-PPO-PEO) micelles in the gel and sol phases were studied using a quenching methodology for the triplet excited states of the naphthalenes. Studies with triplet excited states probe a larger reaction volume than the volumes accessible when using fluorescent singlet excited states. The use of triplet excited states enables the determination of the dynamics between different compartments of a supramolecular system, which in the case of F127 micelles are the micellar core, the micellar corona and the aqueous phase. This report includes laser flash photolysis studies for the four naphthalene derivatives in the F127 gel and sol phases. The triplet excited states were quenched using the nitrite anion as the quenchers. The association and dissociation rate constants of the naphthalenes from the micelles and the quenching rate constants for the naphthalenes bound to the micelles were determines from the curved quenching plot (observed decay rate constant vs. nitrite concentration).

The kinetics of the outer-sphere oxidation of Cr(NN)32+ ions (NN = 2,2'-bipyridine, 1,10-phenanthroline, and their substituted analogs) by hexaammineruthenium(III) was studied using laser flash photolysis. The Cr(NN)32+ ions were generated via the reductive quenching of the *Cr(NN)33+ excited states by oxalate ions or by H2edta2–. The second-order rate constants were found to vary with the driving force of the reaction. The rate constants increase from (7.1 ± 0.5) × 106 M–1 s–1 for Cr(5-Clphen)32+ to (2.6 ± 0.2) × 108 M–1 s–1 for Cr(4,7-Me2phen)32+. The self-exchange rate constant for the couple (Cr(NN)33+/2+) was calculated by applying Marcus cross relation to present and other known reactions of Cr(NN)3n+ ions, where n = 3 or 2 with various reactants and is estimated to be (6 ± 4) × 107 M–1 s–1.Key words: tris(polypyridyl)chromium(II)/(III) self-exchange rate, hexaammineruthenium(III), oxidation of Cr(NN)32+.
