Photoinduced One-Electron Reduction of MV2+ in Titania Nanosheets Using Porphyrin in Mesoporous Silica Thin Films

Abstract: Composite films of a meso-(tetramethylpyridinium)porphyrin (TMPyP) hybrid incorporated in mesoporous silica (MPS) and cast on a methyl viologen (MV2+)/titania nanosheet hybrid were synthesized and a light-induced charge separation between the two could be observed. These composite thin films were able to initiate a one-electron reduction of the MV2+ ions accompanied by the simultaneous decomposition of the TMPyP organic dye within the mesoporous silica channels.

“…Post-synthesis grafting involves the same types of alkoxysilane or chlorosilane linkers that are commonly utilized in the bifunctional strategy. A wide variety of functionalized materials have been produced using the post synthesis grafting method; [19,35] specific examples include mesostructured selective titania membranes, [36] bifunctional accessible mesopores, [31] hybrid materials for light induced charge separation [33] and zeolites with coumarins for light harvesting. [49] The organic functionality that is introduced to the material can also act as a site for further derivatizations.…”

“…4 Because of these desirable characteristics, viologens have been largely investigated in solutions, the immobilized electrodes by the casting and molecular assembly techniques, the diads or triads with other optical molecules, as well as in the hybrids with mesoporous or inorganic nanomaterials. 5 Garcia and coworkers recently prepared a hybrid of single-walled CNTs (SWCNTs) covalently anchored viologens, which was able to form a charge-transfer complex * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed. with 2,6-dimethoxynaphthalene.…”
