Abstract

A Cu(I) complex, 1, and a Pt(II) complex, 2a, of a triarylboron ligand, Bnpa, with bright ambient-temperature phosphorescence have been obtained. The phosphorescence of these complexes is highly sensitive toward molecular oxygen and has a distinct response to fluoride ions. For 1, the fluoride ion causes phosphorescent quenching and Bnpa dissociation, and for 2a, it switches phosphorescent color from yellow to green. The Cu(I) complex has an exceptionally high emission quantum yield (0.88) in the solid state.
