Trapping intermediate MLCT states in low-symmetry {Ru(bpy)} complexes
The picosecond excited state dynamics of [Ru(tpm)(bpy)(NCS)]+ (RubNCS+) and [Ru(tpm)(bpy)(CN)]+ (RubCN+) (tpm = tris(1-pyrazolyl)methane, bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) have been analyzed by means of transient absorption measurements and spectroelectrochemistry. Emissive 3MLCTs with (GS)HOMO(h+)-(GS)LUMO(e-...
