Photoinduced spin transitions are studied by femtosecond electron diffraction to understand ultrafast structural dynamics associated with intersystem crossing. The results indicate the structural reorganization occurs within 2.3 ps, as the metal-ligand bond distribution narrows during intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution.
