Early Relaxation Dynamics in the Photoswitchable Complex trans‐[RuCl(NO)(py)4]2+
Résumé
The design of photoswitchable transition metal complexes with tailored properties is one of the most important challenges in chemistry.S tudies explaining the underlying mechanismsa re, however,s carce. Herein, the early relaxation dynamics towards NO photoisomerization in trans-[RuCl(NO)(py) 4 ] 2 + is elucidated by meanso fn on-adiabatic dynamics, which provided time-resolved information and branching ratios. Three deactivation mechanisms(I, II, III) in the ratio 3:2:4w ere identified. Pathways Ia nd III involve ul-trafast intersystem crossinga nd internal conversion, whereas pathway II involves only internal conversion.
