Visible pump-probe spectroscopy has been used to identify and characterize short-lived metal-to-metal charge transfer (MMCT) excited states in a group of cyano-bridged mixed-valence complexes of the formula LCo(III)NCM(II)(CN)(5), where L is a pentadentate macrocyclic pentaamine (L(14)) or triamine-dithiaether (L(14S)) and M is Fe or Ru. Nanosecond pump-probe spectroscopy on frozen solutions of L(14)Co(III)NCFe(II)(CN)(5) and L(14S)Co(III)NCFe(II)(CN)(5) at 11 K enabled the construction of difference transient absorption spectra that featured a rise in absorbance in the region of 350-400 nm consistent with the generation of the ferricyanide chromophore of the photoexcited complex. The MMCT excited state of the Ru analogue L(14)Co(III)NCRu(II)(CN)(5) was too short-lived to allow its detection. Femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy on aqueous solutions of L(14)Co(III)NCFe(II)(CN)(5) and L(14S)Co(III)NCFe(II)(CN)(5) at room temperature enabled the lifetimes of their Co(II)-Fe(III) MMCT excited states to be determined as 0.8 and 1.3 ps, respectively.
可见泵浦 - 探测光谱已被用于识别和表征一组通式为[LCo(III)NCM(II)(CN)(5)]-的氰基桥联混合价配合物中的短寿命金属 - 金属电荷转移(MMCT)激发态,其中L是五齿大环五胺(L(14))或三胺 - 二硫醚(L(14S)),M是Fe或Ru。在11K下对[L(14)Co(III)NCFe(II)(CN)(5)]-和[L(14S)Co(III)NCFe(II)(CN)(5)]-的冷冻溶液进行纳秒级泵浦 - 探测光谱,能够构建差分瞬态吸收光谱,其特征在于在350 - 400nm区域吸光度增加,这与光激发配合物的铁氰化物发色团的产生一致。Ru类似物[L(14)Co(III)NCRu(II)(CN)(5)]-的MMCT激发态寿命太短,无法检测到。在室温下对[L(14)Co(III)NCFe(II)(CN)(5)]-和[L(14S)Co(III)NCFe(II)(CN)(5)]-的水溶液进行飞秒级泵浦 - 探测光谱,能够确定它们的Co(II)-Fe(III) MMCT激发态寿命分别为0.8和1.3皮秒。
