Chemistry · Supramolecular Chemistry
When an electron-donating zinc porphyrin covalently linked to guanosine and an electron-accepting quinone linked to cytosine associate via hydrogen bonding and are irradiated with light, efficient electron transfer occurs from the porphyrin to the quinone. This assembly demonstrates which property of supramolecular systems?
- 1The physical properties change only due to the generation of new covalent bonds within the structure.
- 2Interconnected macromolecules in a supramolecular assembly are too weakly bonded to allow energy transfer.
- 3A permanent dipole-dipole moment is generated explicitly between the two metal centers.
- 4Electrical or electronic communication can be achieved between molecular components via non-covalent interactions.✓
Correct answer
Electrical or electronic communication can be achieved between molecular components via non-covalent interactions.
