Abstract
Dissociation of an axial CO ligand from Cr(CO)4bpy under irradiation i nto the MLCT absorption band is a prompt process that takes place from directly excited vibronic levels of the 1MLCT state. Qualitative mode l of such processes based on a vibronic coupling between MLCT and LF s tates that activates promoting asymmetric vibration is proposed.
