Synthesis and characterization of phosphorescent platinum and iridium complexes with cyclometalated corannulene.

Photophysical and cellular uptake properties of novel phosphorescent cyclometalated iridium(III) bipyridine D-fructose complexes.

We report here the synthesis, characterization and photophysical properties of two novel phosphorescent cyclometalated iridium(III) polypyridine D-fructose complexes and their fructose-free counterparts. The cellular uptake of the complexes and their cytotoxicity have also been examined.

Cyclometalated iridium(III) polypyridine dibenzocyclooctyne complexes as the first phosphorescent bioorthogonal probes.

We report the synthesis, photophysical behavior, and biological properties of new cyclometalated iridium(iii) polypyridine complexes appended with a dibenzocyclooctyne (DIBO) moiety; these complexes have been utilized as the first phosphorescent bioorthogonal probes for azide-modified biomolecules.

Synthetically Tailored Excited States: Phosphorescent, Cyclometalated Iridium ACHTUNGTRENNUNG(III) Complexes and Their Applications

Developing strongly luminescent platinum(IV) complexes: facile synthesis of bis-cyclometalated neutral emitters.

A straightforward, one-pot procedure has been developed for the synthesis of bis-cyclometalated chloro(methyl)platinum(IV) complexes with a wide variety of heteroaromatic ligands of the 2-arylpyridine type. The new compounds exhibit phosphorescent emissions in the blue to orange colour range and represent the most efficient Pt(IV) emitters reported to date, with quantum yields up to 0.81 in flu...

Synthesis and Characterization of Aminocarboxylato Iridium(III) Complexes

Aminocarboxylic acids, such as 2-aminobenzoic acid, react easily with [Ir(COD)(PMe3)3]Cl, (COD=1,5-cyclooctadiene), in THF to produce hydridoaminocarboxylato iridium(III) complexes in high yields. These octahedral complexes are formed via oxidative addition reaction of the O-H bond of the carboxylic group with the central metal. The starting iridium(I) complex losses t...
