Abstract:Silver bis(carbene) complexes featuring ditopic N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have been synthesized which enable the assembly of supramolecular architectures via reaction with silver triflate. Through a systematic exploration of crystal structures and emissive properties, this study investigates the impact of the substituents on the NHC ditopic ligands [R-Im-2-Z-py], where R = Me, benzyl (Bz), or 2-naphthylmethyl (NaphCH 2 ), and Z = H or Cl in the structural framework and emissive properties observed i… Show more
