- W2000169833 abstract "We have performed computational simulations of porphyrin-dendrimer systems--a cationic porphyrin electrostatically associated to a negatively charged dendrimer--using the method of classical molecular dynamics (MD) with an atomistic force field. Previous experimental studies have shown a strong quenching effect of the porphyrin fluorescence that was assigned to electron transfer (ET) from the dendrimer's tertiary amines (Paulo, P. M. R.; Costa, S. M. B. J. Phys. Chem. B 2005, 109, 13928). In the present contribution, we evaluate computationally the role of the porphyrin-dendrimer conformation in the development of a statistical distribution of ET rates through its dependence on the donor-acceptor distance. We started from simulations without explicit solvent to obtain trajectories of the donor-acceptor distance and the respective time-averaged distributions for two dendrimer sizes and different initial configurations of the porphyrin-dendrimer pair. By introducing explicit solvent (water) in our simulations, we were able to estimate the reorganization energy of the medium for the systems with the dendrimer of smaller size. The values obtained are in the range 0.6-1.5 eV and show a linear dependence with the inverse of the donor-acceptor distance, which can be explained by a two-phase dielectric continuum model taking into account the medium heterogeneity provided by the dendrimer organic core. Dielectric relaxation accompanying ET was evaluated from the simulations with explicit solvent showing fast decay times of some tens of femtoseconds and slow decay times in the range of hundreds of femtoseconds to a few picoseconds. The variations of the slow relaxation times reflect the heterogeneity of the dendrimer donor sites which add to the complexity of ET kinetics as inferred from the experimental fluorescence decays." @default.
