Metalloporphyrins are well-known as electron donors in photoinduced electron transfer processes. [60]fullerene is an excellent electron acceptor, thus stabilizing radical ion-pair states in dyads of metalloporphyrins and fullerene. In these model systems for photosynthesis, the two chromophores are forced into a rigid stacking arrangement by covalent bonding and crystal packing, which leads to an interaction of the electron density of the central metal and the fullerene π-system on both sides of the porphyin plane. Also a weak back-bonding is found.
In the current study, the electronic structure of thick films of (Mn, Fe, Co, Zn, Sn)-porphyrins and (Mn, Fe, Co)-dyads on Au-plated Si was investigated with NEXAFS spectroscopy. The presented N1s spectra reflect the electronic interaction of the central metal ion with the esurrounding N atoms. Differences in the metal 2p-edge spectra between porphyrin and dyad arise mainly from electron density in the dz2-orbital (single occupation for Fe3+ and Co2+). The measured spectra will also be compared to DFT calculations. This work was funded by DFG (SFB 583).
