Enhanced electron transfer by dendritic architecture: energy transfer and electron transfer in snowflake-shaped Zn porphyrin dendrimers.
[structure: see text] Photoinduced electron transfer was observed for the snowflake-shaped dendrimer with the Zn porphyrin core and anthraquinonyl terminals. Comparison of the electron-transfer efficiency of the dendrimer with the linear analogues indicates the advantage of the dendritic structure for the electron-transfer process.
