For coordination compounds containing CO or CN groups, fast time-resolved infrared spectroscopy (TRIR) provides a convenient method of probing excited states and intermediates. TRIR has proved particularly powerful for probing the structure and kinetics of organometallic intermediates. The interpretation is particularly straightforward when combined with IR data from matrix isolation experiments, although there can be some subtle differences. In excited state studies, shifts in ν(CO) and ν(CN) frequencies, from ground to excited state, are sensitive to the changes in electron distribution on excitation, thus allowing the distinction between charge-transfer and non-charge-transfer transitions. Subtle effects on excited state ν(CO) band positions occur with change from fluid to rigid solvent-“infrared rigidochromism”. There is often a change in ν(CO) band width on excitation; this can be interpreted in terms of specific interactions between the excited species and the solvent. This paper presents some of our recent work in this area.

<p>Building molecular machine has long been a dream of scientists as it is expected to revolutionize many aspects of technology and medicine. Implementing the solid-state molecular motion is the prerequisite for a practical molecular machine. However, few works on solid-state molecular motion have been reported and it is almost impossible to “see” the motion even if it happens. Here the light-driven molecular motion in solid state is discovered in two non-conjugated molecules <i>s</i>-DPE and <i>s</i>-DPE-TM, resulting in the formation of excited-state though-space complex (ESTSC). Meanwhile, the newly formed ESTSC generates an abnormal visible emission which is termed as clusteroluminescence. Notably, the original packing structure can recover from ESTSC when the light source is removed. These processes have been confirmed by time-resolved spectroscopy and quantum mechanics calculation. This work provides a new strategy to manipulate and “see” solid-state molecular motion and gains new insights into the mechanistic picture of clusteroluminescence.<br></p>

We adopted excited state ab initio dynamics and a new time resolved vibrational analysis to unveil coupling between modes promoting photorelaxation.
