Kinetic traces. (A) Reaction of 1a (2 × 10−5 M) with Fe(ClO4)3 (5 × 10−4 M) in acetonitrile at room temperature monitored at 396 nm; the iron(IV) complex 2a was formed in 0.3 s and decayed to 3a. (B) Laser irradiation of 2b monitored at 403 nm; the pre-trigger sequence was initiated (t = 0 ms) at 0.2 s after mixing, and the laser fired ca. 50 ms later.
