Intermolecular Energy Transfer
D* + A D + A* Donor Acceptor
E-E transfer – both D* and A* are electronically excited.
Often referred to as “quenching” as it removes excess electronic energy of initially excited molecule.

Formation of collision complex Intramolecular energy transfer within complex – Apply
Fermi’s Golden Rule
H’ is perturbation due to intermolecular forces (Coulombic, long range – “Forster”) or electronic orbital overlap (exchange, short range – “Dexter”)

Energy Gap Law Collisional energy transfer most efficient
when the minimum energy taken up as translation
i.e., ED*-ED EA*-EA
This can be thought of arising from Franck Condon principle within collision complex

Long-range energy transfer Interaction between two
dipoles A, D at a separation r.
Insert H’ into Fermi’s Golden Rule
Dependence on transition moments for A and D

Long range energy transfer
Overall energy transfer rate must be summed over all possible pairs of initial and final states of D and A* subject to energy conservation
- Depends on overlap of absorption spectrum of A and emission spectrum of D

There will be a critical distance r0 at which the rate of energy transfer is equal to the rate of decay of fluorescence of D (Typically r0 = 20 – 50 Å)

Define wT the rate of energy transfer, ET the efficiency of transfer relative to other processes
w0 is the rate of competing processes (fluorescence, ISC etc)
wT can be identified with the rate of energy transfer at the critical distance R0 (see above)

Short range energy transfer (Dexter) Exchange interaction; overlap of
wavefunctions of A and D
L is the sum of the van der Waals radii of donor and acceptor
Occurs over separations collision diameter
Typically occurs via exciplex formation (see below)

Spin Correlation Resultant vector spin of collision partners must be
conserved in collision complex and subsequently in products
D(S1) + A(S0) both spins zero, thus resultant spin SDA=0 - can only form products of same spin
D(T1) + A(S0) SD=1, SA=0, thus SDA=1 – must form singlet + triplet products
D(T1) + A(T1) SDA = 2, 1, or 0 thus can form e.g., S + S, S + T, or T + T

Oxygen (3g-) recognised as strong inducer of
intersystem crossing.
De-oxygenated solutions used where reaction from S1 state necessary.

Triplet sensitization Use intermolecular energy transfer to
prepare molecules in triplet state
e.g., benzophenone (T1) + naphthalene (S0)
benzophenone (S0) + naphthalene (T1)
Important in situations where S1 state undergoes slow ISC or reacts rapidly.

Dynamic versus static quenching Dynamic quenching: in solution energy transfer
processes depend on D* and A coming into contact by diffusion – very fast processes may be diffusion limited. As quencher concentration increases, fluorescence
decays more rapidly.
Static quenching – in a rigid system, energy transfer is effectively immediately if a quenching molecule is within a certain distance of D*. Thus the initial fluorescence intensity is lower.
![Page 20: Photochemistry Lecture 5 Intermolecular electronic energy transfer.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56649efe5503460f94c13bfe/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Dynamic vs static quenching- effect on fluorescence decay of increasing quencher concentration
Dynamic quenching – fluorescence decays more rapidly as [A]
Static quenching – no change in lifetime but initial intensity lower
