Synthesis and photophysical properties of bis-NHC platinum(II) complexes bearing bipyridine ligands furnished with two anionic closo-monocarborane clusters [CB11H12]−

Four Pt(II) complexes have been synthesized by utilizing the primary ligand of bis-NHC (dpdb, dpdi) and featuring cyclometalated ligands of bipyridine (bpy) decorated with two monoanionic closo-monocarborane clusters. All four...
