Photoexcitation of hexabromoplatinate and hexabromoosmate dianions in CT and ligand field states results in remarkably fast formation (sub 100 fs) of coherently excited photoproducts assigned to 3PtBr5- and 3OsBr5-. This is explained by the fact that one of the lowest triplet excited states in both PtBr62- and OsBr62- is repulsive. Surprisingly, the damping time and amplitude of the observed coherent oscillations in the pentabromoosmate (209 cm-1) and pentabromoplatinate (112 cm-1) species is quite different. The shorter damping time (0.4 ps) of 3PtBr5- in comparison with the damping time (1 ps) of 3OsBr5- in aqueous solution is related to faster dephasing in 3PtBr5-. The large-amplitude bending oscillations in pentabromoplatinate are tentatively assigned to the passage of the wavepacket through the Janh-Teller conical intersection(s), whereas in pentabromoosmate, the umbrella type of oscillations appears to be due to the coupling to the Os-Br symmetric stretching mode in the parent dianion. The coherent oscillations in both photoproducts show no dependence on solvent. The results are supported by DFT, TD-DFT and CASSCF/CASPT2 calculations of electronic structures, vertical electronic transitions and harmonic frequencies of initial dianions and photoproducts.
