An amphiphilic A(2+)-S-D triad molecule and its reference compounds, S-D, A(2+)-S, and S type molecules, were synthesized and studied using time-resolved transient absorption spectroscopy. The three moieties in the triad, i.e., an electron acceptor moiety (A(2+), viologen), a sensitizer moiety (S, perylene), and an electron donor moiety (1), ferrocene, were Linearly combined by sigma-bonded tunneling bridges. Intramolecular electron transfer reactions were initiated by photoexcitation of the S moiety to S-1*, and the long-lived final charge separated state, A(.+)-S-D.+, was formed. Although the yield of the initial charge separated state, A(.+)-S.+-D, was very high (0.93), the overall yield of the final charge separated state was ca. 0.2. The rate of the backward electron transfer from A(.+) to S.+ was observed to be two times lower than that of the forward electron transfer from S-1* to A(2+), suggesting that with suitable molecular engineering, the yield of long-lived charge separation in such triads could be improved.
