title: Photoswitching tetranuclear rhenium(I) tricarbonyl diimine complexes with a stilbene-like bridging ligand.
abstract: Highly efficient photoswitching tetranuclear rhenium(I) tricarbonyl diimine complexes with a stilbene-like bridging ligand are reported. The ability to directly populate excited states localized on the bridging ligand is the key for the observed efficient photoisomerization.
