摘要

Cyclic voltammetry experiments revealed the inversion of the standard potentials of the 1st and 2nd electron transfers in the oxidation of β-carotene (1) and 15,15′-didehydro-β-carotene (2) (but not in their reduction) as well as in the reduction of canthaxanthin (3) (but not in its oxidation). The factors that control standard potential inversion in these systems, and more generally in symmetrical molecules containing polyconjugated chains, were investigated by B3LYP calculations. Two main interconnected effects play in favor of potential inversion. One is the localization of the charges in the di-ion towards the ends of the molecule, thus minimizing coulombic repulsion. This effect is enhanced by solvation of the di-ion providing its additional stabilization. Localization of the charges in the di-ion is favored by the presence of electron-accepting terminal groups for reductions and of hole-accepting terminal groups for oxidations. The second effect is the delocalization of the charge in the radical ion over the whole molecular framework, which is also disfavoring its stabilization by solvation.
