Photophysics and reductive quenching reactivity of gadusol in solution

The photostability and photophysics of gadusol in aqueous solution has been studied. The photodecomposition quantum yields (ca. 4 × 10-2 and 1 × 10-4 at acidic and neutral pH, respectively) confirm the high photostability of the metabolite, independently of the presence of oxygen, under physiological conditions. The nature of the electronic transition of gadusol has been assigned as π → π* on the basis of the solvatochromic shifts of the UV absorption spectrum and the time-dependent density functional theory calculation of the vertical transition energies. The results from the photoacoustic calorimetry point to the rapid non-radiative decay as the dominant relaxation pathway of the excited species at pH 7, which is consistent with the proposed UV-sunscreening role of the molecule in the early atmosphere. Laser flash photolysis experiments probed that the ground state of the enolate form (gadusolate) undergoes electron transfer reactions with some triplet sensitizers in water or methanol solution. A rate constant of 2 × 108 M-1 s-1 has been determined for the quenching of rose bengal triplet state in water at pH 7. This reductive quenching reactivity may be considered as one of the underlying mechanisms that support the antioxidant capacity of gadusol in biological environments. © The Royal Society of Chemistry and Owner Societies 2011.Fil: Arbeloa, Ernesto Maximiliano.

A photophysical and spectroelectrochemical study on N-phenyl-carbazoles and their oxidized species

A series of N-phenyl-carbazole derivatives namely TCz (N-tolyl-carbazol), TCz-TCz (a 3,3´-linked dimer), and CzPh-CH2-PhCz (a methylene-bridged N-phenyl-carbazole), have been synthesized and studied by means of absorption and fluorescence spectra, DFT calculations, cyclic voltammetry and spectroelectrochemistry. It is concluded that the methylene bridge in CzPh-CH2-PhCz isolates the two TCz units, whereas TCz-TCz allows extending the electronic coupling along both carbazoles. Moreover, the phosphorescence spectrum of TCz-TCz showed a high energy triplet state (2.76 eV). It was observed that oxidation of CzPh-CH2-PhCz generates an electrochromic polymer containing TCz-TCz dimer units separated by methylene bridges. Oxidized TCz-TCz subunit was analyzed by EPR spectroscopy, and found to be a Class III mixed valence ion in Robin and Day classification. All results suggest that these molecules might be suitable as selective probes in fluorescence sensing or as host materials in electroluminescent devices.Fil: Ramirez, Cristina Lujan.

Sensitized photo-oxidation of gadusol species mediated by singlet oxygen

Gadusols are efficient nature UV sunscreens with antioxidant capacity. The kinetics of the quenching reactionsof singlet oxygen O2(1Δg) by gadusol species was evaluated in aqueous solution as well as in the presenceof direct charged micelles. Time-resolved phosphorescence detection of O2(1Δg) indicated that gadusolate, themain species under biological pH, is a more efficient quencher than the enol form with a rate constant of ca.1.3 × 108 L mol−1 s−1. The deactivation proceeds via a collisional mechanism with clear dominance of chemicalpathways, according to the rates of gadusol and oxygen consumptions, and typical photooxidation quantumyields of ca. 7%. The relative contributions of the chemical and physical quenching steps were not affected bythe presence of anionic or cationic micelles emulating simple pseudo-biological environments. The products ofthe photo-oxidative quenching support a type II mechanism initiated by the addition of O2(1Δg) to the C-C doublebond of gadusolate. These results point to the relevance of considering the role of sacrifice antioxidant along withthe UV-screening function for gadusol, particularly in the context of potential biotechnological applications ofthis natural molecule.Fil: Orallo, Dalila Elisabet.

Quenching of the triplet state of safranine-O by aliphatic amines in AOT reverse micelles studied by transient absorption spectroscopy

The photophysics of Safranine-O (3,6-diamino-2,7-dimethyl-5 phenyl phenazinium chloride) (SfH+Cl-) was investigated in reverse micelles (RMs) of AOT  (sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate) with special emphasis on the triplet state processes. The excited singlet state properties were measured by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. Steady state anisotropy was also measured as a function of the water content. All the measurements indicate that the dye is localized in the interface, sensing a medium of polarity similar to EtOH:water (3:1) mixtures. The triplet is formed in its monoprotonated form, independently of the pH of the water used to prepare the RMs. The  maximum of the T-T absorption spectrum in RMs confirms this conclusion. The triplet lifetime is much longer in AOT RMs than in homogeneous organic solvents. The intersystem crossing quantum yields are similar to those in organic solvents. A remarkable difference is observed in the quenching by aliphatic amines, while the quenching by the hydrophobic tributylamine is similar to that in methanol, the hydro-soluble triethanolamine is one order of magnitude more effective in RMs than in homogeneous solution. In the latter case  the quenching process is interpreted by a very fast intramicellar quenching, the overall kinetics being controlled by the exchange of amine molecules between RMs. Semireduced dye is formed in the quenching process in RMs in the di-protonated state with a comparable quantum yield to the monoprotonated state formed in homogeneous solvents. The results point to the advantage of the reverse micellar system for the generation of active radicals for the initiation of vinyl polymerization, since a much lower concentration of amine can be employed with similar quantum yields.Fil: Porcal, Gabriela Valeria.

Diketopyrrolopyrrole-fullerene C60 architectures as highly efficient heavy atom-free photosensitizers: Synthesis, photophysical properties and photodynamic activity

Chromophore-fullerene C60 hybrids possess interesting properties that enable them to act as heavy atom-free photosensitizers and reactive oxygen species (ROS) producers. Here, two new diketopyrrolopyrrole-C60 conjugates were efficiently synthesized and characterized. The conjugates show broadband absorption in the visible spectral region, in which diketopyrrolopyrrole dyes act as light-harvesting antenna with very high capacity to populate excited triplet states. Furthermore, the ability of diketopyrrolopyrrole-C60 systems to generate singlet molecular oxygen was explored for the first time in solvents of different polarities. The experimental results show that these architectures exhibit very high production rates of this ROS. In addition, a preliminary study on Staphylococcus aureus cell suspensions indicates that both conjugates exhibit phototoxicity after irradiation with green LED light. Thus, the data obtained provide evidence that these diketopyrrolopyrrole-C60 architectures act as potential heavy atom-free photosensitizers in photodynamic inactivation of microorganisms and other singlet oxygen-mediated applications.Fil: Agazzi, Maximiliano Luis.

Photophysics and photochemistry of porphyrin core PAMAM dendrimers. Excited states interaction with quinones

Quenching of excited states of the meso-substituted tetraphenyl porphyrins with PAMAM branches, and one with PAMAM generation 1 peripherally-modified with thiazole groups by p-benzoquinones, were studied in DMF solution. Fluorescence lifetime measurements evidence a static component in the quenching process. The dynamic quenching rate constants were close to the diffusional limit except for the case of duroquinone. Apparent association constants of the porphyrin compounds with the quinones were determined by comparison of static and dynamic measurements of fluorescence quenching. The ground state interaction is very weak with the exception of tetrachlorobenzoquinone. The triplet state decay kinetics and the transient absorption spectra in the presence of the quinones were determined by laser flash photolysis. Triplet quenching rate constants were lower than those of singlet quenching. An electron transfer mechanism was proposed to explain the results. The long-time transient absorption spectra were assigned to the radical cation of the dyes. Relative radical yields were determined and a dependence on the side chains and the quencher was observed.Fil: Militello, María Paula. Universidad Nacional de Río Cuarto.

Comparison of the Kinetics of Electron Transfer in the Diffusion Limit for the Singlet and Triplet Quenching of Eosin Y by Quinones

Electron transfer (ET) rate constants were determined by means of lifetime measurements for the fluorescence quenching and by laser flash photolysis for the triplet quenching of the dye eosin Y by benzoquinones in acetonitrile. The results represent a new aspect of the dependence of the rate constants with the driving force in the diffusion limit region. That is, the rate constants for singlet quenching in the highly negative region of DGet do not decrease as predicted by Marcus theory, but rather show a small positive dependence on the driving force. However, it is found that, in the same free energy range, the triplet rate constants are lower than those for the singlet process. They also increase with the exergonicity of the reaction, but the dependence with DGet is less marked than that found for the singlet reaction. Even at a Gibbs energy change of 1.0 eV the triplet quenching rate constants do not reach the theoretical diffusion limit. The results are analyzed using the current theories for diffusionmediated ET reactions.Fil: Bertolotti, Sonia Graciela. Universidad Nacional de Río Cuarto.

Photophysicochemical characterization of mycosporine-like amino acids in micellar solutions

The properties and photochemical and photophysical behavior of the mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) shinorine and porphyra-334 were experimentally evaluated in solutions of direct ionic micelles as simple biomimicking environments. The preferential partition of the natural molecules in the aqueous phase of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) or cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) micellar systems is confirmed. Although the proton dissociation of the carboxylic groups in the MAAs is slightly inhibited in CTAC solutions, the molecules are predicted to be in the form of zwitterions in all the explored media around physiological pH. The increase in the fluorescence quantum yield, emission lifetime and stationary anisotropy in the presence of CTAC micelles suggest electrostatic attractions of the MAAs with the surface of the cationic micelles. Consistently, the triplet-triplet absorption spectra in CTAC solutions reveal the typical environmental features of the micellar interface, while in the presence of SDS they are similar to those determined in neat water. Finally, the photostability of the MAAs increases in the micellar systems, more noticeably in the case of CTAC. It is concluded that the ability of the two MAAs to act as UV screens is susceptible to the influence of electrostatic interactions with organized microheterogeneous environments.Fil: Orallo, Dalila Elisabet.

Excited states quenching of phenosafranine dye by electron donors

The quenching of the excited singlet and triplet states of phenosafranine by aromatic amines, methoxybenzenes and triethanolamine was investigated in acetonitrile and methanol. The rate constants for the aromatic quenchers present a typical dependence of an electron transfer process with the one-electron redox potential of the donor. A Rehm-Weller correlation is obtained with the driving force. The fitting parameters are very similar in both solvents. The electron transfer nature of the quenching reaction is further confirmed by the detection of the radical cations of the quenchers and the semireduced form of the dye in laser flash photolysis experiments. The absorption coefficients of the transient species were estimated, and the quantum yield of the charge separation process was determined.Fil: Broglia, Martin Federico.

Photochemical study of Eosin-Y with PAMAM dendrimers in aqueous solution

A steady-state and time-resolved study of the xanthene dye Eosin-Y (Eos) in the presence of amino-terminated polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers in alkaline aqueous solution is presented. Stationary photolysis experiments in deaerated and air equilibrated solutions were carried out. The absorption spectra of the photolyzed solutions in the absence of oxygen showed the formation of several intermediate species. With the aid of laser flash photolysis technique (LFP) those transients could be ascribed to semireduced and partially debrominated species of Eos. The triplet quenching rate-constant (3kq) and radical quantum yields (ΦR) were determined by LFP. In the presence of PAMAM, the triplet lifetime of Eos is greatly decreased and the data fitted to a Stern–Volmer treatment. These experiments indicated that the electron transfer from dendrimers to Eos is a highly favored process. Based on the results found in this work, we concluded that Eos/PAMAM couple might act as a promising photoinitiator of vinyl polymerization with low ecological impact.Fil: Arbeloa, Ernesto Maximiliano.
