Photo-excitation of electron donor–acceptor systems can lead to the generation of a charge separated state (CT). Sometimes the charge recombination occurs mainly to the local triplet excited state (T1). How does the spin flip?

Control of electron-transfer processes is described for a number of electron donor-acceptor dyads containing porphyrins or phthalocyanines as models for the photosynthetic reaction center. The rates for intramolecular electron transfer in the dyads are controlled by the driving force and reorganization energy of electron transfer. The small reorganization energy of electron transfer reactions and large driving force of charge recombination are required to form long-lived charge-separated states. A directly linked zinc chlorin-fullerene dyad, especially, has the longest lifetime of charge-separated state at 120 s at -150 °C, which is a much longer lifetime and higher energy than those of natural photosynthetic reaction centers. On the other hand, the charge-separated states of the phthalocyanine-based donor-acceptor dyads (silicon phthalocyanine-fullerene, and zinc phthalocyanine-perylenebisimide) are short-lived since charge recombination forms the low-lying triplet excited state of the chromophore. The energy of the charge-separated state of a zinc phthalocyanine-perylenebisimide dyad is decreased by binding of metal ions to the radical anion moiety in order to be lower than the triplet excited state. This results in formation of a long-lived charge-separated state. The mechanistic viability of formation of long-lived charge-separated states is demonstrated by a variety of examples based on the Marcus theory of electron transfer.

The Pt(ii)-based molecular triad engages in step-wise photoinduced charge-separation; the charge recombination occurs through-space via two distinct pathways.
