Distance-dependent energy transfer occurs from the Metal-to-Ligand Charge Transfer (MLCT) excited state Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)* to an anthracene-acrylate derivative (Acr-An) incorporated into the polymer network of a semirigid poly(ethyleneglycol) dimethacrylate monolith. Following excitation, Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)* to Acr-An triplet energy transfer occurs followed by long-range, Acr-3An-Acr-An -> Acr-An-Acr-(3)An, energy migration. With methyl viologen dication (MV2+) added as a trap, Acr-(3)An + MV2+ -> Acr-An(+) + MV+ electron transfer results in sensitized electron transfer quenching over a distance of approximately 90 angstrom.
