Back Cover: Approaching White‐Light Emission from a Phosphorescent Trinuclear Gold(I) Cluster by Modulating Its Aggregation Behavior (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 50/2013)

Abstract

Light up the world … … with white light from gold. In their Communication on page 13472 ff., D. Li and coworkers introduce an organic chromophore, thiophene, into a classical trinuclear gold(I) pyrazolate core that gives off aurophilic phosphorescence. The cooperation of dual emissions in the blue-green and orange-red regions underlies this solid-state white-light emitter, along with a red-emitting crystalline polymorph that assists the interpretation of this unusual observation in gold photochemistry.
