[2,2′‐biisoindoline]‐1,1′,3,3′‐tetraone (4A2B) crystal with high n‐electrons undergoes photo‐induced reversible homolysis resulting in two room‐temperature phosphorescence (RTP). One of the 4A2B molecules responds strongly to 250 nm via fast intersystem crossing (ISC) processes among high‐lying excited states.
