Abstract
A photophysical study is reported for the trinuclear copper(I) complex {[3,5-(CF3)2Pz]Cu}3. The neutral compound exhibits multicolor bright phosphorescent emissions both in the solid state and in solution. The emission can be tuned to multiple visible colors by controlling the temperature, solvent, and {[3,5-(CF3)2Pz]Cu}3 concentration, giving rise to luminescence thermochromism, luminescence solvatochromism, and a new optical phenomenon called “concentration luminochromism”, respectively.Keywords
