Free energy diagram for energetically accessible excited states of 2B (In blue) and 3B (in red) from PBE0-D3/BS1. The 3MLCT state is readily accessed and should lead to singlet oxygen formation. Furthermore, the 3MC (which leads to ligand loss) is not accessible and this explains the relative lack of photodissociation for 2B and 3B.
