<div>The primary photochemical dynamics of [Cp*Cr(CO)2]2 have been studied using picosecond time-resolved infrared (TRIR) spectroscopy. Upon visible or UV photoexcitation, the primary photochemical pathway is formation of a transient rear- rangement isomer with a weakened Cr≡Cr bond and two terminal carbonyl ligands rearranged to a bridging conformation. This species reverts to the parent dimer on the time scale of 378 ± 15 ps, and Density Functional Theory calculations suggest that this transient species is characterized by a triplet spin state and a trans conformation of the two terminal CO ligands. Photolysis in neat THF solution is unable to trap the transient intermediate via solvent-coordination. The excited state transient rearrangement isomer appears to adopt a distorted structure in THF, relative to cyclohexane, evidenced by the observation of an additional bridging-CO stretching band in THF solution. The lifetime of the transient in THF is just slightly shorter at 344 ± 17 ps. The CO-loss product of 1 has been characterized previously and adopts an asymmetric arrangement of the three bridging CO ligands. In neat THF solution, the CO-loss complex is not observed to react with THF on the picosecond timescale, although a previous study on longer timescales observed formation of a THF adduct of the CO-loss complex in dilute alkane/THF solutions. Though the molybdenum congener, [Cp*Mo(CO)2]2, is unstable in solution, decaying on the timescale of a few hours in cyclohexane, TRIR experiments demonstrate that no bridged photoproducts (transient or long-lived) are formed from the Mo complex in cyclohexane solution. </div><div><br></div>

We demonstrate a new high resolution grazing incidence spectrometer system for spectroscopic applications in the range 50 to 400 Å. The instrument is comprised of a laser-plasma VUV continuum source, a 1.5 m grazing incidence spectrometer, and a 1024-channel VUV optical multichannel analyzer (VUV-OMA). The VUV-OMA is of new design, featuring a special resolution-enhanced channel electron multiplier array in an overall configuration chosen to optimize the spatial resolution of the detector while maintaining single-photoelectron sensitivity. The instrument has the capability of bringing the advantages of linear response and parallel spectral detection to general VUV photoabsorption studies of atoms, ions, molecules, and thin solid samples, as well as studies involving laboratory plasmas. The instrument has the additional special capability of performing time resolved absorption spectroscopy of transient species. The characteristics of the source and detector, along with various applications of the instrument to atomic physics will be discussed.
