The Ag(I) complex with o-bis(diphenylphosphino)benzene shows reversible interconversion between blue-emitting (1b) and green-emitting (1g) materials on grinding and heating; comparison of the structure of 1b with another green-emitting crystals (2) having the same formula suggests the chromism results from intermolecular interactions between adjacent phenylene rings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
