Time-resolved spectroscopy of a photoactive dinuclear W/Ru complex: spectroscopic evidence for a metastable intermediate with side-on coordinated carbonyl ligand

JBJan‐Hendrik BorterSBSambhu N. BanikKKKristian Kunze

Key Points

  • The research aims to investigate the dynamics of a redox-active dinuclear W/Ru complex under light-activation.
  • Used femtosecond infrared and UV-vis pump-probe spectroscopy
  • Analyzed the light-induced dynamics of the complex
  • Identified intermediates during the reaction process
  • Discovered a metastable intermediate with a side-on coordinated carbonyl ligand
  • Observed specific light-induced dynamics of the complex
  • Revealed the importance of the carbonyl ligand in the reaction pathway

Abstract

An in-depth investigation of the light-induced dynamics of a redox-active binuclear W( ii )/Ru( ii ) complex using femtosecond IR and UV-vis pump-probe spectroscopy allows for the identification of a side-on carbonyl complex intermediate.
