Notes:
Copolymer pendant tris(2,2′-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) complexes were prepared from the copolymers of 4-methyl-4′-vinyl-2,2′-bipyridine with styrene, acrylic acid, methyl methacrylate, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, acrylonitrile, N-vinylpyrrolidone, 4-vinylpyridine, and quaternized 4-vinylpyridine. The quenching of the photo-excited state of the polymer complexes by methylviologen was studied. Pendant anionic groups such as acrylate enhanced remarkably the quenching of the cationic sensitizer by the cationic substrate, however, pendant cationic groups such as quaternized pyridine did not affect the reaction. The polymer chain showed generally retarding effect on the quenching reaction.
