title: Luminescent heteroleptic tris(dipyrrinato)indium(III) complexes.
abstract: To provide an improvement over the low fluorescence efficiencies often shown by homoleptic tris(dipyrrinato)indium(III) complexes, luminescent heteroleptic tris(dipyrrinato)indium(III) complexes bearing two types of dipyrrinato ligands are designed here by theoretical calculation and then synthesized. They possess frontier orbitals linked to suppression of the nonemissive charge-separated states; one shows a high fluorescence quantum yield (0.41) in toluene, which exceeds that of the corresponding BF2 complex.
