Table 4.
Internal conversion rates (kIC, s−1) between T1 and Tn of 1–3 calculated by different methods (n = 2 for compound 1 and 2, n = 3 for compound 3). Geometries and frequencies are calculated at TD-ωB97XD/6-31G(d,p) level of theory, and energy differences are calculated at TD-ωB97X-D3/def2-TZVP(-f) level of theory
