In the solid state, a non-luminescent platinum(ii) dithiooxamide species adsorbs gaseous HCl, yielding a tight ion pair species which exhibits photoluminescence; the process is quantitatively reversed on heating or by exposing the sample to ammonia vapors.
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.
