Spectroscopic Investigation of Fe(II)-Complexes on the fs-Time Scale — •Aleksej Friedrich1, Peter Zimmer2, Matthias Bauer2, and Stefan Lochbrunner11Institute of Physics, University of Rostock — 2Department Chemie, Universität Paderborn

Iron-complexes are interesting for photocatalytic applications, because they could act as photosensitizers and replace noble metals. A problem of such Fe-complexes is a short lifetime of the metal-to-ligand charge transfer state (MLCT). One promising way to extend the lifetime is to use ligands in the complex with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) moieties.
To get insight into the impact of the NHC ligands on the photophysics of the complexes ultrafast transient absorption measurements are performed. We see a nice correlation between the number of NHC sites and the lifetime of the MLCT state. Fe(II)-complexes with a low NHC number (2) relax from the MLCT state to the lowest metal-centered state within 100 fs while four NHC sites result in a MLCT lifetime of 8 ps.[1]
