Complexes of the late transition metals with conjugated ligands efficiently populate triplet excited states owing to the heavy atom effect of the metal. Because of this, gold organometallics often show rich photophysical properties that support applications in luminescence, sensing, electric lighting, and nonlinear optics. This talk will present the synthesis and photophysical characterization for a variety of new organogold(I) complexes. In-depth photophysical studies of these compounds (both static and time-resolved) will be discussed, as well as inferable structure-property relationships. Effects of ancillary ligand substitution in addition to the effects of organic functionality will also be examined. Photophysical properties leading to white light emission from (organophosphine)gold(I) aryls will be discussed.
