Excited-state emission and lifetimes are reported for the complexes Os(phen)32+ and Os(4,4'-Ph2phen)32+ (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline; 4,4'-Ph2phen is 4,4'-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) as a function of counterion in CH2Cl2 solution.The changes in nonradiative decay rate constants are observed to vary with changes in emission energy maxima as predicted by the energy gap law.The variations in emission energies and through them the decay rates appear to be induced by changes in ion-dipole interactions in the excited state.
