A series of π conjugated naphthalimide derivatives were prepared. Compounds display efficient photoinduced charge transfer in solution which was rationalized by time-resolved spectroscopy and modelled by TD-DFT calculations.

The dynamics of photo-driven charge transfer-induced spin transition (CTIST) in two Fe/Co Prussian Blue Analogues (PBAs) is revealed by femtosecond IR and UV/vis pump-probe spectroscopy. Depending on temperature the known tetranuclear square-type complex [Co<sub>2</sub>Fe<sub>2</sub>(CN)<sub>6</sub>(tp*)<sub>2</sub>(4,4’-dtbbpy)<sub>4</sub>](PF<sub>6</sub>)<sub>2</sub> (<b>1</b>) exists in two electronic states. In acetonitrile solution at <240 K the low temperature (<b>LT</b>) phase is prevalent consisting of low-spin Fe(II) and low-spin Co(III), [Fe<sup>II</sup><sub>LS</sub>Co<sup>III</sup><sub>LS</sub>]<sub>2</sub>. Temperature rise causes thermally induced CTIST towards the high temperature (<b>HT</b>) phase consisting of low-spin Fe(III) and high-spin Co(II), [Fe<sup>III</sup><sub>LS</sub>Co<sup>II</sup><sub>HS</sub>]<sub>2</sub>, being prevalent at >300 K. Photo-excitation into the intervalence charge transfer (IVCT) band of the <b>LT</b> phase at 800 nm induces electron transfer in one Fe-Co edge of PBA <b>1</b> and produces a [Fe<sup>III</sup><sub>LS</sub>Co<sup>II</sup><sub>LS</sub>] intermediate which by spin crossover (SCO) is stabilized within 400 fs to a long-lived (>1 ns) [Fe<sup>III</sup><sub>LS</sub>Co<sup>II</sup><sub>HS</sub>]. In contrast, IVCT excitation of the <b>HT</b> phase at 400 nm generates a [Fe<sup>II</sup><sub>LS</sub>Co<sup>III</sup><sub>HS</sub>] species with a lifetime of 3.6 ps. Subsequent back-electron transfer populates the vibrationally hot ground state, which thermalizes within 8 ps. The newly synthesized dinuclear PBA, [CoFe(CN)<sub>3</sub>(tp*)(pz*<sub>4</sub>Lut)]ClO<sub>4</sub> (<b>2</b>), provides a benchmark of the <b>HT</b> phase of <b>1</b>, i.e. [Fe<sup>III</sup><sub>LS</sub>Co<sup>II</sup><sub>HS</sub>], as verified by variable temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements and <sup>57</sup>Fe Mößbauer spectroscopy. The photo-induced charge transfer dynamics of PBA <b>2</b> indeed is almost identical to that of the <b>HT</b> phase of phase of PBA <b>1</b> with a lifetime of the excited [Fe<sup>II</sup><sub>LS</sub>Co<sup>III</sup><sub>HS</sub>] species of 3.8 ps.

The nonequilibrium Fermi’s golden rule (NE-FGR) describes the time-dependent rate coefficient for electronic transitions, when the nuclear degrees of freedom start out in a <i>nonequilibrium</i> state. In this letter, the linearized semiclassical (LSC) approximation of the NE-FGR is used to calculate the photoinduced charge transfer rates in the carotenoid-porphyrin-C<sub>60</sub> molecular triad dissolved in explicit tetrahydrofuran. The initial nonequilibrium state corresponds to impulsive photoexcitation from the equilibrated ground-state to the ππ* state, and the porphyrin-to-C<sub>60</sub> and the carotenoid-to-C<sub>60</sub> charge transfer rates are calculated. Our results show that accounting for the nonequilibrium nature of the initial state significantly enhances the transition rate of the porphyrin-to-C<sub>60</sub> CT process. We also derive the instantaneous Marcus theory (IMT) from LSC NE-FGR, which casts the CT rate coefficients in terms of a Marcus-like expression, with explicitly time-dependent reorganization energy and reaction free energy. IMT is found to reproduce the CT rates in the system under consideration remarkably well.
