HOMO = −[Eox vs Fc/Fc+ + 4.8] eV.
LUMO = −[Ered vs Fc/Fc+ + 4.8] eV.
Predicted from TD-DFT calculations in THF at 298 K by estimating the energy difference between the optimized T1 and singlet S0 states.
Calculated according to the equations kr = Φ/τobs and knr = (1 – Φ)/τobs, where kr is the radiative rate constant, knr is the nonradiative rate constant, Φ is the quantum yield, and τobs is the excited-state lifetime.
