Abstract

Correction for ‘Dye-sensitized electron transfer from TiO2 to oxidized triphenylamines that follows first-order kinetics’ by Brian N. DiMarco et al., Chem. Sci., 2018, DOI: 10.1039/c7sc03839a.


The authors regret that Scheme 1 is incorrect in the original manuscript as an arrow was not properly displayed. The correct scheme is shown below.

Scheme 1 Mechanism for the photoinitiation of the desired reaction. Visible light absorption by the ruthenium sensitizer induced rapid excited-state electron injection to the acceptor state of TiO2, kinj > 108 s−1. The oxidized sensitizer is then regenerated by triphenylamine (TPA) with a rate constant kreg. This sequence provides the reactants for the desired charge recombination reaction of the injected electron with the oxidized triphenylamine redox mediator (krec) that was quantified over a 0.5 eV change in driving force.

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
