Mw. George et al., ELECTRON-DISTRIBUTION IN THE EXCITED-STATE OF [(OC)5W(4,4'-BIPY)W(CO)5] (4,4'-BIPY = 4,4'-BIPYRIDYL) DETERMINED BY TIME-RESOLVED INFRARED-SPECTROSCOPY, Journal of the Chemical Society. Dalton transactions, (14), 1994, pp. 2217-2219
Employing fast time-resolved infrared (TRIR) spectroscopy, the pattern
of the nu(CO) IR bands in the lowest excited state of [(OC)5W(4,4'-bi
py)W(CO)5] (4,4'-bipy = 4,4'-bipyridyl) shows that the electron distri
bution in this state is localised on the IR time-scale.
