title: Syntheses and photophysical properties of optical-active blue-phosphorescent iridium complexes bearing asymmetric tridentate ligands.
abstract: Novel blue-phosphorescent iridium complexes bearing 1-(2-pyridyl)-3-(N-methylimidazol-2-yl)-4,6-difluorobenzene(LH) as an asymmetric tridentate ligand have been optically resolved into a pair of enantiomers that exhibits opposite circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) spectra.
