Abstract

Ruthenium(II)-polypyridyl complexes of similar size but with variable reduction potential undergo efficient photoinduced electron-transfer reactions with phenolate ions in aqueous medium. All these reactions are exergonic and are in accordance with the Marcus theory of electron transfer. At high negative Δ G° Marcus inverted region is observed in this bimolecular photoinduced charge separation reaction.
