Terpyridine isomerism as a tool for tuning red-to-NIR emissive properties in heteronuclear gold(i)–thallium(i) complexes

Abstract

The polymeric linear chain [AuTl(C6Cl5)2]n reacts with three terpyridine-type ligands substituted with thiophene groups containing the N-donor centres in different relative positions (L1, L2 and L3) leading to the Au(I)/Tl(I)...
