1 Evolution of the MLCT band following changes in oxidation state for highly coupled mixed valence complexes Benjamin Lear and Malcolm Chisholm 64th International Symposium on Molecular Spectroscopy June 23 rd 2009

2 Mixed-valence systems and their classification Localized electronic states Non- adiabatic Adiabatic Localized electronic states Class I Free Energy X Delocalized electronic states Class III Free Energy X Class II Free Energy X Solvent dependent IVCT band Solvent independent IVCT band 1+

3 M M mixed valence complexes

9 MLCT simulation Neutral

10 PES offsets Nuclear Coordinate 1

11 Mixed-valence systems and their classification Localized electronic states Non- adiabatic Adiabatic Localized electronic states Class I Free Energy X Delocalized electronic states Class III Free Energy X Class II Free Energy X Solvent dependent IVCT band Solvent independent IVCT band 1+

12 Symmetric coordinate PES and classification Asymmetric coordinate Symmetric coordinate Class IClass IIClass IIIClass IV

13 Conclusions MLCT band in mixed valence complexes contains information regarding the underlying states Coupling in mixed valence systems tends to make states more similar to one another

16 Classification of mixed valence complexes: The “nesting” criterion View along the symmetric coordinate Class IClass IVClass III

17 Theories for absorption profiles Time dependent pictureFranck-Condon picture

18 Three-state model: Orbital picture

19 Concerning the current models Class IV IVCT MLCT “IVCT” “MLCT” Class I Nuclear coordinate

20 Conclusions MLCT band in mixed valence complexes contains information regarding the underlying states Coupling in mixed valence systems tends to make states more similar to one another Orbital pictures for describing coupling between states are dangerous ≠
