The employment of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) to design luminescent metal
compounds has been the focus of recent intense investigations because of the strong σ …

Metal complexes featuring acyclic diaminocarbene ligands have recently emerged as
powerful emitters for prospective use in OLEDs and other electroluminescent technologies …

The main difficulties hindering development of a deep-blue phosphorescent cyclometalated
Ir (III) complex are insufficient colour purity, ie, failure to achieve ideal Commission …

Four blue-emissive iridium (III) complexes bearing a 3, 3′-(1, 3-phenylene) bis [1-isopropyl-
6-(trifluoromethyl)-3 H-imidazo [4, 5-b] pyridin-2-ylidene]-based pincer chelate, which are …

The design of molecular phosphors with near-unity photoluminescence quantum yields in
the low-energy regions of the spectrum, red to near-infrared, is a long-standing challenge …

In this Perspective, we highlight many examples of photoluminescent metal complexes
supported by isocyanides, with an emphasis on recent developments including several from …

In this report, we synthesized two series of deep-blue-emitting homoleptic iridium (III)
phosphors bearing 1, 2, 4-triazol-3-ylidene and 5-(trifluoromethyl)-1, 2, 4-triazol-3-ylidene …

A new class of bis-tridentate Ir (III) complexes (Dap-1–4) was synthesized using carbene
pincer pro-chelates PC1· H3 (PF6) 2 or PC2· H3 (PF6) 2 with either imidazolylidene or …

Two new platinum (II) compounds with trans-(NHC) 2Pt (C≡ C–C≡ C–R) 2 (where NHC= N-
heterocyclic carbene and R= phenyl or trimethylsilyl) architecture exhibit sharp blue-green …

A new application for bis (cyclometalated) iridium (III) species containing ancillary acyclic
diaminocarbene ligands, viz. for sensing of mercury (II) ions, is disclosed. A family of bis …
