A novel series of cyclometalated platinum(II) complexes bearing acyclic diaminocarbene (ADC) ancillary ligands were designed and prepared. Their photophysical properties were systematically studied through experimental and theoretical investigations. All complexes exhibit green phosphorescence with a quantum efficiency of up to 45% in 2 wt% doped PMMA film at room temperature. The complexes are used as light-emitting dopants for organic light-emitting diode (OLED) fabrication. The devices displayed a green emission with a maximum current efficiency of 2.9 cd A and a luminance of 2700 cd m. These results show that these cyclometalated platinum(II) complexes can be used as efficient green emitting components of OLED devices.

The synthesis, structure, and circularly polarized phosphorescence (CPP) properties of axially chiral cyclometalated binuclear platinum(II) complexes were described. A series of optically pure binuclear platinum(II) complexes were synthesized in five steps from commercially available ()- or ()-1,1'-bi-2-naphthol (BINOL) as starting materials. Their three-dimensional molecular structures and square-planar coordination geometries were elucidated from X-ray diffraction and 2D NMR analysis.

Bidentate Pt(II) complexes with cyclometalated -heteroarene or -heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have been extensively studied as phosphorescent emitters over the past two decades. Herein, we introduce a difluoromethyl group (CFH) into the wingtip of NHCs, where CFH acts as a lipophilic hydrogen bond (HB) donor. Their cyclometalated Pt(II) complexes show excellent PLQYs (up to 93%) and phosphorescence lifetimes mainly due to the rigid structure with hydrogen bonding between the CFH group and the adjacent O atom at the β-diketonate ligand.

Controlling the size and morphology of supramolecular assemblies is still an enormous challenge for the development of novel functional materials. Herein, cyclometalated platinum(II) complexes were designed and used as effective theragnostic supramolecular nano agents. Benzoquinoline was used as the main C^N ligand, and the increased number of aromatic rings in the N^N ligand of Pt complexes could greatly improve lipophilicity and cytotoxicity towards cancer cells over normal cells.

In recent years, the near-infrared (NIR) light-emitting materials have attracted increasing attention due to the broad application prospects in the fields of military industry, aerospace, lighting, display and wearable devices. As the transition metal complexes, platinum(II) complexes have been shown to emit luminescence efficiently in NIR organic light-emitting diodes because of the unique d electron structure. This structure ensures that the platinum(II) complex molecules exhibit a high planarity, variety of excited states, and strong intermolecular interactions.

We present a previously unknown series of cyclometalated platinum(IV) NHC complexes, obtained by oxidative addition of iodine, iodomethane, and different benzyl bromides to platinum(II) complexes with cyclometalated C^C* dibenzofuran, dibenzothiophene, and phenylimidazole ligands together with an acetylacetonate ligand. All compounds were characterized by standard techniques (H, C, and Pt NMR and elemental analysis), and for three complexes, solid-state structures could be obtained. DFT calculations (B3LYP(d3)/def2-TZVPP including dispersion interactions in dichloromethane and acetone) were performed to investigate the mechanism of the oxidation and explain the exclusive formation of the observed products.
