title: A new class of highly solvatochromic dicyano rhenate(I) diimine complexes--synthesis, photophysics and photocatalysis.
abstract: A new class of dicarbonyl dicyano rhenate(I) diimine complexes, cis,trans-[Re(CO)(2)(CN)(2)(N-N)](-), with highly environmentally sensitive MLCT absorption and emission properties was synthesised and characterised. Preliminary experiments revealed that these complexes are active photocatalysts for CO(2) reduction.
