Hole trapping : The hole transfer and trapping in a G‐quadruplex has been investigated using laser flash photolysis and pulse radiolysis. The results show that the charge separation in the G‐quadruplex takes place efficiently between riboflavin and G‐bases because of the excellent hole‐trapping ability of planar G‐quartets.
