Abstract

A synthetic route to new gold(III) complexes was developed. From a [(tBuC∧N∧C)AuCl] complex as a precursor, a substitution by different azulene moieties was achieved. Because of the extraordinary photophysical properties of both substituted [(C∧N∧C)Au] compounds and azulene building blocks, the fusion of these generated organometallic azulene/gold(III) pincer hybrids. The isolated complexes were fully characterized and investigated, including X-ray single-crystal structure analysis, the electrochemical properties, and UV–vis spectra.
