K. Yoshinaga et al., Photoinduced electron transfer catalysis of titania particles modified with a Ru(2,2 '-bipyridyl)(3)(2+)-grafted polymer by visible light, COLLOID P S, 278(5), 2000, pp. 481-484
The preparation and photocatalysis of colloidal titania modified with Ru(2,
2'-bipyridyl)(3)(2+)- grafted polyacrylate were investigated. Visible light
irradiation of the Ru(2,2'-bipyridyl)(3)(2+)-tethered titania in pH 7.0 bu
ffer solution gave electron transfer to methyl viologen to form the cation
radical via electron migration from the Ru(II) complex to the titania surfa
ce.
