Abstract
The complexes M(II)(binap)Cl-2 with M = Ni and Pd and binap = 2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl show an IL phosphorescence in the solid state under ambient conditions. The nickel(II) complex is a unique example of a triplet emitter. Generally, any triplet emission of Ni(II) complexes is quenched by non-emissive low-energy LF excited states. In the case of the binap complex, the LF ...
Abstract
The complexes M(II)(binap)Cl-2 with M = Ni and Pd and binap = 2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl show an IL phosphorescence in the solid state under ambient conditions. The nickel(II) complex is a unique example of a triplet emitter. Generally, any triplet emission of Ni(II) complexes is quenched by non-emissive low-energy LF excited states. In the case of the binap complex, the LF states are apparently located at energies well above the IL triplet. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
