Financial support of this work by the Australian Research Council (to MNPR and KPG) is acknowledged. The investigations were supported in part by the Netherlands Foundation for Chemical Research (SON) with financial aid from the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO). We thank Dr. A.M. Oliver (UNSW) for generously purifying the naphthalene systems and Dr. T. Smith and M. LaRosa (UM) for assistance with the photophysical measurements.

N2 - Singlet state (S1) radiative and non-radiative decay rates and S1 polarisabilities have been determined for naphthalene dimers where the chromophores are separated by a rigid polynorbornane bridge of varying length corresponding to 2, 4 and 6 σ-bonds. The dramatic increase in S1 radiative rates and polarisabilities as interchromophore separation is reduced is attributed to the contribution of a 'through-configuration' interaction (involving interchromophore charge-transfer states) to the electronic coupling.
