14. The classification of the (π,π*) excited states in terms of "singdoublets" and "tripdoublets" was originally introduced by Gouterman and co-workers [15]. Interaction between the 1(π,π*) states of the macrocycle and the unpaired d electron on the metal results in doublet states (singdoublets) while interaction between the 3(π,π*) states of the macrocycle and the unpaired d electron results into doublets (tripdoublets) and quartets.

20. All calculations were performed with the ADF program package [21, 22]. Geometry optimizations and ground-state electronic structure calculations were performed using the local density approximation (LDA) functional of Vosko-Wilk-Nusair (VWN) [23], plus the Becke88-Perdew86 (BP) [24, 25] generalized gradient approximation (GGA). The spin-unrestricted DFT formalism was employed to examine the open-shell Co- and Cu complexes. The structures of the open-shell CoNc(OMe)8 and CuNc(OMe)8 complexes were optimized by assuming a S = 1/2 spin state. The excitation energies were calculated using ordinary (spin-restricted/spin-unrestricted) TDDFT and spinflip (SF)-TDDFT based on a non-collinear representation of the XC potential [26-28]. Vertical absorption energies, Eva, were evaluated at the ground-state geometry. For selected excited states, adiabatic energies, Eadia, were computed according to the expression Eadia = Eve + ΔE, where Eve is the vertical emission energy, which is computed at the TDDFT level using the relaxed excited-state geometry. The ΔE term accounts for the change in energy of the ground state upon deformation to the relaxed geometry of the excited state (for a schematic definition of the calculated energies, see Fig. 10 in Reference 11). Solvent effects on the excitation energies were modeled by the conductor-like continuum solvent model (COSMO) [29-32], using the structures optimized in the gas-phase.
