Herein we report the synthesis and time-resolved spectroscopic characterization of a homoleptic Fe(II) complex exhibiting a record 3MLCT lifetime of 26 ps promoted by benzimidazolylidene-based ligands. Time dependent density functional molecular modeling of the triplet excited state manifold clearly reveals that, at equilibrium geometries, the lowest 3MC state lies higher in energy than the lowest 3MLCT one. This unprecedented energetic reversal in a series of iron complexes, with the stabilization of the charge-transfer state, opens up new perspectives towards iron-made excitonic and photonic devices, hampering the deactivation of the excitation via metal centered channels.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
