Abstract
Low-temperature absorption and luminescence spectra of four organorhenium compounds were measured in the visible and near-infrared spectral regions. Effects of the temperature, formal oxidation state, and the oxo-, bromo-, and organic ligands on the metal center are reported. The emission maxima of the four compounds show a large variation between 9000 and 14 200 cm−1. Stokes shifts show a smaller variation from 3700 to 4200 cm−1. Luminescence intensities are used to qualitatively characterize nonradiative relaxation processes. Key words: luminescence spectra, absorption spectra, organorhenium compounds.
