Pre-planarized triphenylamine-based linear mixed-valence charge-transfer systems: dedicated to Professor Fred Wudl on the occasionof his 80th birthday

Three linear dimers with two redox-active planarized triphenylamines were synthesized and their structures verified by X-ray crystallography. Their radical cations, which exhibit electron self-exchange between the two redox centers, are of great interest. This process was thoroughly investigated by...

Description
Summary:Three linear dimers with two redox-active planarized triphenylamines were synthesized and their structures verified by X-ray crystallography. Their radical cations, which exhibit electron self-exchange between the two redox centers, are of great interest. This process was thoroughly investigated by means of electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, absorption spectroscopy, and (time-dependent) density functional theory calculations. A comparison of the key parameters of electron transfer with non-planarized nitrogen-centered building blocks emphasizes the impact of using redox centers with low internal reorganization energies. However, the distance-dependence attenuation factor of the super-exchange mechanisms remains similar.
