From Energy Matching to Lifetime Control: Tunable Excited-State Equilibria in an Iron–Pyrene Dyad
electron transfer reactivity from different excited states and compared to the unsubstituted iron complex. These findings establish external stimuli like solvent or salt as powerful tools for controlling excited-state dynamics in iron-based molecular dyads and highlight clear pathways to tune excited states and increase the efficiency of triplet state population for a rational design of next-generation iron photosensitizers.
