Over the last five decades, diimine rhenium(I) tricarbonyl complexes have been extensively investigated due to their remarkable and widely tuned photophysical properties. These systems are regarded as attractive targets for design functional luminescent materials and performing fundamental studies of photoinduced processes in transition metal complexes. This review summarizes the latest developments concerning Re(I) tricarbonyl complexes bearing donor-acceptor (D-A) and donor-π-acceptor (D-π-A) ligands.

Pendant organic chromophores have been used to improve the photocatalytic performance of many metal-based photosensitizers, particularly in first-row metals, by increasing π conjugation in ligands and lowering the energy of the photoactive absorption band. Using a combination of spectroscopic studies and computational modeling, we rationalize the excited state dynamics of a Co(III) complex containing pendant pyrene moieties, , where = 1,1'-(4-(pyren-1-yl)pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(3-methyl-1-imidazol-3-ium). displays higher visible absorptivity, and blue luminescence from pyrene singlet excited states compared with [ = 1,1'-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(3-methyl-1-imidazol-3-ium)] in which the pyrene moiety is absent.

Three 1-(anthracene-9-ylmethyl)-3-isopropyl-imidazol-2-thione Zn(II) halide complexes (1-3) and one 1-(anthracene-9-ylmethyl)-3-isopropyl-imidazol-2-selone Zn(II) dichloride complex (4) were synthesized and characterized. Complexes 2, 3, and 4 exhibited distorted tetrahedral geometries, while complex 1 adopted a regular tetrahedral geometry. All these complexes displayed emission in the crystalline state, with complex 3 emitting in the yellow region and complex 1 and 4 in the blue region, while complex 2 gave a bluish-green emission.

AuCl(PMe) and AuCl(PEt) were used to react with quinoline-8-thiolate (8-QNS) to give three Au(I) complexes, i.e., [8-QNS(AuPMe)]ClO (), [(8-QNS)Ag(AuPMe)]ClO (), and [8-QNS(AuPEt)]ClO (), which have been structurally determined by X-ray diffraction to show various intra- and intermolecular metal···metal contacts (i.

Reports on highly efficient silver(I)-based thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials are scarce due to challenges in molecular design, although these materials show great potential for photoluminescent and electroluminescent applications. Herein, a silver(I)-iodine cluster, namely AgI(dppb-Ac), is synthesized by employing a donor-acceptor (D-A) type bisphosphine ligand. Due to the introduction of electron-donating iodine ligands, AgI(dppb-Ac) exhibits an emissive singlet state characterized by (metal + iodine)-to-ligand charge transfer and intra-ligand charge transfer transitions, as well as a small singlet-triplet energy gap.
