✦ Synopsis


We show that the rate of through-bond-mediated intramolecular singlet-singlet electronic energy transfer (EET) in the rigid novel 10-bond DMN-bridge-dione 2(10) is five orders of magnitude faster than that predicted for 1(10) DMN monoketone and observed in the steroid systems exhibiting comparable interchromophore separations of 12.5A. The efficiency of energy transfer (>99.5% calculated based on the measured rate) is also much larger than that observed in flexibly linked systems containing the same donor-acceptor chromophores, for which through space EET via exchange interaction is dominant, thus indicating the possibility of controlling EET by judicious molecular engineering.
