The sign and intensity of photoinduced electron spin polarization (ESP) in the electronic ground doublet states (²S_o/D_o) of chromophore-radical complexes can be controlled by changing the nature of the metal ion. The complexes consist of an organic radical (nitronylnitroxide, NN) covalently attached to a donor acceptor chromophore via a meta-phenylene bridge, (bpy)M(CAT-m-Ph-NN) (1) (bpy = 4,4’-di-tert-butyl-2,2’-bipyridine, M = Pd^II (1-Pd) or Pt^II (1-Pt), CAT = 3-tert-butylcatecholate, m-Ph = meta-phenylene). In both complexes, photoexcitation with visible light pro-duces an initial exchange-coupled, 3-spin (bpy^•-, CAT^+• = semiquinone (SQ) and NN^•), charge-separated doublet ²S₁ (S = chromophore excited spin singlet configuration) excited state that rapidly decays to the ground state via a ²T₁ (T = chromophore excited spin triplet configuration) state. This process is not expected to be spin selective and only very weak emissive ESP is found for 1-Pd. In contrast, strong absorptive ESP is generated in 1-Pt. Furthermore, it is postulated that zero-field splitting induced transitions between the chromophoric ²T₁ and ⁴T₁ states (1-Pd and 1-Pt) and spin-orbit induced transitions between ²T₁ and NN-based quartet states (1-Pt) ac-count for the differences in polarization.
