Optically induced cis-trans isomerisation of (eta6-cis-stilbene)Cr(CO)3.
The femto- and picosecond time resolved spectroscopy of (eta(6)-cis-stilbene)Cr(CO)(3) provides evidence for three optically accessible excited states one leading to cis-trans isomerisation of the coordinated stilbene ligand and another which results in a slow release of CO.
