Platinum (II) complexes have been attractive due to their intriguing luminescence and spectroscopic properties. To better understand the spectroscopy of platinum(II) complexes, a series of platinum (II) complexes with bisoxazoline has been synthesized and characterized. These complexes exhibit strong emission at room temperature in solid state and fluid solution, as well as at 77K in the glassy solutions. The NMR data indicate the dangling nucleophiles stabilize the platinum(II) complexes. In this presentation, we will discuss the electrochemistry properties, electronic spectroscopy, and the roles of the dangling nucleophile playing in the stability of the platinum (II) complexes and oxidation chemistry.
