Abstract
A photo-induced valence tautomerism was observed in a Co complex, [CoIII-LS (phen)(3,5-DBSQ)(3,5-DBCat)]. In this system, visible light illumination in duces an electron transfer from 3,5-DBCat to CoIII-LS, producing [CoII-HS(p hen)(3,5-DBSQ)(2)]. The resultant photo-induced metastable state could be t rapped more than 1 h at 5 K.
