23. The bleach intensity increased approximately linearly with the laser intensity, indicating that the laser intensity was not so high as to cause two photon absorption.
24. This number represents an upper limit based on a 1.0 quantum yield and neglecting any recombination of the 17e radicals. For data presented in Figs. 2b and c, a greater portion of the dimer molecules within the sample volume may be consumed. This effect is not included in the yield analysis of the experimental data (see Table 2) but would only increase the discrepancy between the dimer mechanism and experimental data, thus strengthening the arguments made in the section.

37. 3 indicate the W-CO bonds are significantly weakened so CO loss from excitation in the visible region is reasonable.
