Abstract
The complex Ag(NH3)NO2, which can be viewed as a ligand-based mixed-valence compound, undergoes a photoconproportionation of nitrogen from -III and +III to 0. It is suggested that this photolysis originates from a NH3 to NO2- LLCT state which is populated from a NO2- IL state. In this context, the excited state properties of AgNO2 and Ag(H2O)NO2 are also discussed. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
