We report the synthesis and characterization of a new family of pentavalent uranyl amide complexes, supported also by photoluminescence and theoretical investigations. These studies reveal for the first time that the UV-visible emission of uranyl(V) is an admixture of charge transfer transitions accompanied by vibronic coupling of the quartet excited state with uranyl oxo and amide vibrations, thereby offering new insights into the electronic structure of the reactive uranyl(V)

Dissipative quantum dynamics simulations reveal a branching of charge separation dynamics in Drosophila Cryptochrome due to subtle balanced energetics within the enzyme. In silico mutations of charged amino acids provide control over charge transfer directionality.

The electronic absorption spectra of the solid tetraethylammonium salts of [OsFnCl6-n]- are measured at 10 K. The strong bands in the UV/YIS region are assigned to charge transfer transitions from π(t1 u, t2 u) and σ(t1 u ) Cl orbitals into the π(t2g3) Os(V) level. The weak intraconfigurational excitations within the t2g3 manifold of Os(V) are split by spin-orbit coupling and lowered symmetry into Kramers doublets, observed in the range 5500-18000 cm-1. The 0 - 0-transitions are deduced from vibrational fine structure; for the centrosymmetric complexes they are confirmed by hot bands recorded in the normal temperature spectra. There is a systematical shift of all absorption bands to higher energy with increasing number of F-ligands.

The electronic absorption spectra of some derivatives of benzenethiol were studied in the visible-ultraviolet regions in a number of solvents. Solvent effects on the position of band maxima helped in identifying the different types of transitions obtained, namely n → π*, π → π*, and intramolecular charge transfer transitions. Energies of the charge transfer bands were computed theoretically and agreed well with the experimental results. Transition probability coefficients and oscillator strength were calculated for the different transitions. Numerical values of the oscillator strength helped to differentiate between the various types of transitions.

The synthesis and physico-chemical parameters are described of a new complexone based on natural amino acids, viz. ethylenediamine-N,N'-di-S-α-isovalerate (SS-EDDIV). 1H- and 13C-NMR data revealed that the methyl group in the substance are not equivalent. The isomers of the cobalt(III) complex with the asymmetric tetradentate SS-EDDIV ligand were prepared and separated; their characteristics are given. The absolute configuration of two of the five theoretically feasible isomers was determined based on their electronic absorption spectra and circular dichroism data.
