Acceleration of the through space S1 energy transfer rates in cofacial bisporphyrin bio-inspired models by virtue of substituents effect on the Förster J integral and its implication in the antenna effect in the photosystems†
Abstract
The singlet kET for cofacial β-octaalkylporphyrin/bis(meso-aryl)porphyrin dyads increases linearly with the gap between the donor–acceptor 0–0 fluorescence peaks at 77 K.
