Photoinduced electron transfer to TiO2 nanoparticles has been examined for the 1-, 2-, and 9-isomers of anthracenecarboxylic acid. TiO2 samples with either anatase or amorphous crystal structures were used for these experiments. The results from time-resolved transient absorption measurements show that the rates of the forward (dye-to-semiconductor) and reverse (semiconductor-to-dye) electron transfer reactions depend on the chemical structure of the dye and the method used to synthesize the particles. These effects arise from differences in both the energetics and the coupling elements for the reactions. Specifically, the reverse electron transfer reactions for the 1- and 2-isomers are significantly faster than that for the 9-isomer due to differences in the oxidation potentials of the dye molecules. In addition, both the forward and reverse electron-transfer times are faster for the anatase TiO2 particles compared to the amorphous particles. For example, the forward electron transfer time for the anatas...
