I am especially interested in the possibility of using pdepe for solving this problem.

I do not believe it is possible to solve this problem with pdepe.

However I have written a one-dimensional PDE solver which is similar to

pdepe (similar syntax and runs in MATLAB)

but contains some enhancements including the capability to couple a

set of ODE with the set of PDE. These ODE can be used, for example, to model

the two reservoirs at the ends of your diffusion region.

My PDE solver can be downloaded here.

I have also tried to create a rough example that is similar to yours.
