Phosphorescent Pt(ii) complexes bearing cyclometalated difluorophenylpyridinate and diphosphine building blocks

Abstract

Two distinct categories of cycloplatinated(II) complexes [Pt(dfppy)(P^P)]Cl, 2, and [Pt2Cl2(dfppy)2(μ-P^P)], 3, where dfppy = 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)pyridinate, P^P = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm), 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (dppe) and 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)benzene (dppbz), were synthesized and characterized. These compounds...
