A chiral Schiff base platinum(II) complex 1 bearing polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains was synthesized. The complex was found to melt at 44 °C whereas its non‐substituted analogue 2 has a high melting point (>300 °C). Upon cooling after melting, the complex remained liquid at room temperature over 30 minutes and exhibited yellow phosphorescence. Circularly polarized phosphorescence (CPP) properties were examined and it was found that the absolute value of the luminescence dissymmetry factor (glum) increases significantly in the liquid state compared to the dilute solution state. Herein, we report the first example of CPP from solvent‐free supercooled liquids.

A series of chiral Schiff-base boron difluoride complexes was synthesized and their photophysical properties were examined. These complexes showed multi-colour (blue, yellow and red) photoluminescence in solution and in the...

Optically inactive, paramagnetic Ir(III)(ppy)3 and Ir(III)(ppy)2(acac) (ppy: 2-phenylpyridinate and acac: acetylacetonate) showed nearly mirror-symmetric magnetic circularly polarised luminescence (MCPL) spectra in dilute dichloromethane and dimethyl sulfoxide under N-up and S-up...

The magnetic circularly polarized luminescence (MCPL) and photoluminescence (PL) spectra of achiral (2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethylporphyrinato)platinum(II), PtOEP, and [2-(4',6'-difluorophenyl)pyridinato-N,C 2' ]platinum(II) acetylacetonate-O,O, F 2 -ppyPt(acac), in toluene and dichloromethane solutions were recorded under an external magnetic field of 1.6 T with N-up and S-up Faraday geometries. The MCPL signs of PtOEP and F 2 -ppyPt(acac) were controlled solely by changing the N-up and S-up geometries. The MCPL/ PL wavelengths of F 2 -ppyPt(acac) in solutions were varied by the ratio of the monomeric and excimeric species.

Invited for this month's cover picture are the groups of Masahiro Ikeshita and Takashi Tsuno at Nihon University and Yoshitane Imai at Kindai University (Japan). The cover picture shows the comparison of circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) properties of square planar platinum(II) complexes with different coordination geometry. Computational studies have been carried out to investigate these structure‐dependencies, and revealed that the distortion of the coordination geometry results into an enhancement the chiroptical responses of these compounds.
