Abstract

The CD spectrum of Δ-Ru(bpy)2+3 has been remeasured. Gaussian analyses of the CD and absorption spectra in the metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (MLCT) region show that, contrary to earlier reports, the most intense visible absorption band carries CD activity. An assignment of the MLCT transitions in agreement with recent quantum-mechanical calculations is proposed.
