Two series of platinum complexes, 1a6a and 1b-6b, based on tridentate cyclometalating ligands 2-aryl-6-(1H- pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine [Ar=phenyl (L1), 2,4-difluorophenyl (L2), 3,5-dimethylphenyl (L3), 3-methoxyphenyl (L4), 2-thienyl (L5), 2-benzothienyl (L6)], and phenylethynyl and phenyl ancillary ligand were synthesized and characterized. The X-ray crystal structures of 2b, 3b and 5b were determined, which revealed a twisted orientation of the phenyl ligand with respect to the coordination plane and a weaker Pt—C(phenyl) bond compared with the Pt—C(alkynyl) bond in 1a. Photophysical properties including electronic absorption and emission spectra were studied. Complexes 1a6a based on the phenylethynyl ligand were strongly emissive, while 1b3b based on the phenyl ligand were only weakly emissive. However, 4b6b displayed lower but decent photoluminescent quantum yields than those of 4a6a, which is explained by the localization of the excited states in the tridentate cyclometalating ligands. The higher quantum efficiencies displayed by the complexes 1a6a may be attributed to the stronger and more rigid acetylide ligand.
