Abstract
The narrow rim of an alpha-cyclodextrin has been AD-capped with a photoacti ve ruthenium(II) tris(2,2'-bipyridyl) fragment giving a diastereomeric mixt ure of complexes that bind 1,4-benzoquinone in water. Steady-state and time -resolved emission studies have been used to probe electron-transfer proces ses occurring inside and outside the cavity.
