Abstract
We present charge transfer absorption, resonance Raman and time-resolved infrared
spectral data for (CN)5FeCNRu(NH3)5− in various solvents. The transient infrared
spectra and anisotropies reveal both non-equilibrium vibrational populations of high
frequency modes and local solvent heating.
