A new series of group 6 UV activable photoCORMs were synthesized by reacting the ligand (((1,10-phenanthroline-5-yl)imino)methyl)naphthalen-2-ol (1) with group 6 (Cr, Mo, and W) hexacarbonyl to form 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The structural elucidations of all compounds were conducted via IR, NMR, a...
