Picosecond resonance Raman has been employed in a two-color pump/probe experiment to re-evaluate the assignments of metal to ligand charge transfer ground and excited state bands in tris-2,2'-bipyridine Ru(II). It is shown that there is no spectral overlap between ground and excited state bands and

✦ Synopsis
The magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) and circular dichroism (CD) of Ru(bpy)F (RBY) doped in siqzleaystal Zn(bpy)s(BF& (BF) and dissolved in poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) are presented, as well as the MCD of a number of related materials in PVA. Two A terms of opposite sign are observed in the singlet region for RBY and other dicarboxylic acid bipyridine derivatives when all three ligands are identical. The largest A term is nor associated with the strongest absorption as previously assumed but with a weaker shoulder that is also responsible for the CD activity. The MCD and CD measurements force a reassignment of the singlet region of the absorption spectrum which must be compatible with the charge transfer origin of its intensity.

## Abstract The light‐induced spin crossover in Fe^II^ complexes is studied with complete active space second‐order perturbation theory. The potential energy surfaces of the low‐spin and high‐spin states are determined as function of the Fe‐‐ligand distance interpolating between the high‐spin and l
