New publication out in JACS

Congratulations to Josh, Dan Preston, Keith and James Crowley who, with researchers in Germany and the UK recently published a paper in the Journal of the American Chemical Society (https://doi.org/10.1021/jacs.1c02755 ). The paper describes the synthesis of a series of metal complexes with donor-acceptor moieties on the ligands.  These systems have unusual excited state properties in which long-lived intra-ligand charge transfer states may be accessed.  Such long-lived states can be utilised in photo catalysis or in the solar energy capture.
