Time-resolved Laue diffraction of excited species at atomic resolution: 100 ps single-pulse diffraction of the excited state of the organometallic complex Rh2(μ-PNP)2(PNP)2·BPh4

Abstract

The polychromatic Laue technique has been applied in 100 ps delay synchrotron pump–probe experiments of the triplet excited state of a Rh(I) dinuclear complex. The observed contraction of the Rh–Rh distance of 0.154 (13) Å is less than predicted by a series of theoretical calculations, a difference attributed to the constraining effect of the crystal lattice.
