Abstract
Three iridium photosensitizers, [Ir(dCF3ppy)2(N-N)]+, where N-N is 1,4,5,8-tetraazaphenanthrene (TAP), pyrazino[2,3-a]phenazine (pzph), or benzo[a]pyrazino[2,3-h]phenazine (bpph) and dCF3ppy is 2-(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl-phenyl)pyridine), were found to be remarkably strong photo-oxidants with enhanced light absorption in the visible region. In particular, judicious ligand design provided access to Ir-bpph, with a molar absorption coefficient, ε = 9800 M-1 cm-1, at 450 nm and an excited-state reduction potential, E(Ir+*/0) = 1.76 V vs NHE. These complexes were successful in performing light-driven charge separation and energy storage, where all complexes photo-oxidized seven different electron donors with rate constants (0.089-3.06) × 1010 M-1 s-1. A Marcus analysis provided a total reorganization energy of 0.7 ± 0.1 eV for excited-state electron transfer.Entities:
