X-ray crystallography has traditionally been limited to the study of the ground-state structure of molecules and solids. Recent technical advances are removing this limitation as demonstrated here by a time-resolved stroboscopic study of the photo-induced 50 mus lifetime excited triplet state of the [Pt-2(pop)(4)](4-) ion [pop = pyrophosphate, (H2P2O5)(2-)], performed at helium temperatures with synchrotron radiation. The shortening of the Pt-Pt bond by 0.28 (9) Angstrom upon excitation is compatible with the proposed mechanism involving promotion of a Pt-Pt antibonding dsigma* electron to a weakly bonding p orbital. The contraction is accompanied by a 3degrees molecular rotation. The time-resolved diffraction technique described here is applicable to reversible light-driven processes in the crystalline solid state.
