The dinuclear compound [{PtII(C^C*)(µ-N^N)}2] (HN^N: diphenylformamidine; HC^C* = 3-methyl-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1H-imidazol-2-ylidene, 3) was obtained as a pure single anti-isomer, with a Pt–Pt distanc...

A set of neutral platinum(ii) complexes bearing a bis-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) pincer ligand with stoichiometry [Pt(CR*^CCN^CR*)L] (R = Me (a), Et (b); L = Cl (2), Cbz (3), and CN (4)) have been p...

Complexes [PtII(Cbz-C^C*bzim/im)(L^L)], bearing carbazole-appended cyclometalated NHCs, show bright phosphorescence, peaking from the blue to the yellowish–green spectral range depending on the carbe...
