Synthesis, photoluminescent and electroluminescent behaviour of four- coordinate tetrahedral gold(I) complexes. X-ray crystal structure of [Au(dppn)2]Cl

Two tetrahedral four-coordinate Au(I) complexes, [Au(4-R-dppn)2]PF6 (R = H or Me), have been synthesized and the crystal structure of [Au(dppn)2]Cl has been determined by X-ray crystallography; the complexes have been found to exhibit both photoluminescent and electroluminescent behaviour.link_to_subscribed_fulltex
