AI Article Synopsis

  • - A new copper(I) photosensitizer called CuPS, which is water-soluble and has four sulfonate groups, forms a 1:2 complex with hexamethonium cations in water.
  • - This combination significantly improves the photophysical and photocatalytic properties of the system.
  • - The enhancement is mainly due to reduced energy losses from non-radiative decay when the photosensitizer is excited by light.

Article Abstract

A water-soluble trianionic heteroleptic copper(I) photosensitizer having four sulfonate groups (CuPS ) was found to afford the 1 : 2 ion-pair adduct with dicationic alkylammonium (hexamethonium) cations (HM ) in aqueous media, leading to exhibit excellent photophysical and photocatalytic performances owing to the substantial suppression of water-derived non-radiative decay of the photoexcited state.
