Abstract

We report here on one of the rare cases that realizes a reductive charge shift from a primary electron acceptor (C ) to a secondary electron acceptor (C ) in a ZnP-C -C conjugate. Initially, charge separation evolves from an excited state electron donor (ZnP). By far the most far reaching benefit from such a reductive pathway is a marked slow down of the energy wasting charge recombination when compared to the ZnP-C conjugate (i.e., picoseconds versus nanoseconds). © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2011.
