This highlight focuses on various luminescent complexes with different transition metal
centres of d6, d8 and d10 electronic configurations. Through the systematic study on the …

Complexes of platinum (II) with polypyridine (that is, the multidentate ligands related to
pyridine, such as bipyridine or terpyridine) have rich photophysical properties. These …

A dramatic color change and tremendous emission enhancement have been “switched on”
upon increasing diethyl ether ratio in acetonitrile or acetone solution of [Pt (tpy)(C⋮ C− C⋮ …

Considerable effort is being devoted to the fabrication of nanoscale devices. Molecular
machines, motors and switches have been made, generally operating in solution,,,,,, but for …

Research in the field of supramolecular chemistry has rapidly grown in recent years due to
the generation of fascinating structural topologies and their associated physical properties …

Face-capped octahedral clusters of the type [Re6Q8 (CN) 6] 4-(Q= S, Se) are used to space
