Fullerene acting as an electron donor in a donor-acceptor dyad to attain the long-lived charge-separated state by complexation with scandium ion.
A long-lived charge-separated (CS) state of fullerene-trinitrofluorenone linked dyad in which fullerene acts as an electron donor is formed by photoinduced electron transfer from C60 to TNF in the presence of Sc(OTf)3; the CS lifetime is determined as 23 ms in PhCN at 298 K.
