Thorium chalcogenolates react with bipyridine or terpyridine to form a series of chelate stabilized Th(ER)4 compounds (E = S, Se; R = Ph, C6F5). 77Se NMR shows that the eight coordinate structures are maintained in solution. These compounds are thermochromic, with color originating from a visible ligand to ligand charge transfer excitation.

The complex CuI(COD)(hfac) with COD = 1,5- cyclooctadiene and hfac = hexafluoroacetyl-acetonate shows two long-wavelength absorptions at λmax = 308 and 241 nm which are assigned to hfac intraligand (IL) and CuI →COD metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) transitions, respectively. The photolysis of CuI(COD)(hfac) in hexane leads to the release of the olefin and the subsequent disproportionation of CuI(hfac) to elemental copper and CuII(hfac)2 with the quantum yields Φ = 10−3 at λirr =313 nm and Φ = 3×10−3 at λirr = 254 nm. It is suggested that the reactive excited state is of the MLCT type.

Exploring the structure-property relationships is a fundamental but significant work for the design of new molecular. Rationaly designing of electrochromic materials that can switch rapidly and durably requires sophisticated understanding of the correlations between molecular structure and the performance. This work presents four electro-polymerizable metallosupramolecular coordinations self-assembled from triphenylamine-based terpyridine ligands and metal ions (Fe2+, Ru2+). The polymerized metal complexes can exhibit reversible change of the metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) absorption intensity. Along with the increase of voltage, the intensity of MLCT absorption peaks gradually reduced to disappear. Structure/performance correlations in electrochromic performance, especially the influence of different ligands and metal ions upon the coloration efficiency have been discussed.

Abstract The irradiation of [Au(CN)2]- in oxygen-saturated acetonitrile leads to photooxidation of Au(I). In the presence of additional chloride [Au(CN)2CL2]- is formed with φ= 0.5 x 10-4 at λirr = 254 nm. It is assumed that [Au(CN)2]- in its metal-to-ligand charge transfer state undergoes an excited state electron transfer to oxygen in the primary photochemical step.
