A long-lived 2E state for a Cr(III)N6 amine chromophore at 298 K: [Cr(fac-Me5-D3htricosaneN6)]Cl3†
Abstract
The 2E state lifetime of the C3 ion [Cr(fac-Me5-D3htrico-saneN6)]3+ is 235 µs in H2O and 1.5 ms in D2O at 298 K, the longest lifetimes yet reported for a saturated Cr(III)N6 chromophore at room temperature.
