title: Probing nitrobenzhydrol uncaging mechanisms using FerriCast.
abstract: The FerriCast derivative FC-NDBF was synthesized from 3-methyl-2-nitrodibenzofuran (NDBF). The photochemistry of the target Fe(3+) photocage and several related congeners provides mechanistic insight into the uncaging quantum yields of nitrobenzhydrol-derived ligands.
