“…From the slopes of E λ φ 1 in Figure and using a value of 1 for the quantum yield of formation of the MLCT complex in every solution, an average contraction of Δ V R,1 = −3.4 ± 0.5 cm 3 /mol was obtained. This volume change is in agreement with the value reported previously for the formation of the MLCT state of Ru(bpy) 3 2+10,23 and attributed to a shortening of the metal−ligand bonds, which corresponds to a small effective radial decrease of about 0.01 Å . The lack of dependence of the volume change for the MLCT formation on the salt composition confirms the assignment of this process to an internal arrangement of the ruthenium complex after light excitation.…”

“…This value is ca. 10 times smaller than the experimental Δ V MLCT , indicating already that the contraction upon 3 MLCT formation in water is mainly due to internal rearrangements and that electrostriction effects can be neglected, as it was postulated …”

“…This volume reduction of the excited state relative to the ground state has been assigned to a small shortening (ca. 0.01 Å) of the Ru−bpy bonds, after the photoinduced intramolecular electron transfer from the central metal to the bpy ligand . Thus, Ru(bpy) 3 2+ and its 3 MLCT state have essentially the same effective radius.…”

“…The high-spin to low-spin conversion in a d 6 metal ion represents one of the largest intramolecular structural changes one can come across in the transition block: the change from a to configuration results in a ∼15 cm 3 mol –1 volume contraction of the compound37 due primarily (though not exclusively) to a ca. 10% reduction in metal–ligand bond length that accompanies depopulation of the σ* orbitals.…”
