Pushing the Thermodynamic and Kinetic Limits of Near-Infrared Emissive CrIII Complexes in Photocatalysis Photoactive CrIII complexes are typically based on polypyridine coordination environments, exhibit red luminescence, and are good photo-oxidants but have modest photoreducing properties. We report new...

Cr(III) complexes with enhanced metal–ligand covalency enable tunable NIR luminescence and red-light photoreduction.

@giacomo-morselli94.bsky.social & team find signs of doublet–doublet annihilation, or excited-state disproportionation.
