Graphical Abstract

Zentrale Bedeutung: Der Schweratom-Effekt bestimmt nicht als einziger Faktor die Effizienz des Intersystem-Crossings und die Geschwindigkeit des stahlenden Zerfalls von Triplettzuständen. Experimente und Rechnungen stellen die entscheidende Bedeutung des Brückenliganden für die Lumineszenzeigenschaften von Tetra(gold(I)-ethinyl)-Komplexen heraus (siehe Strukturen und Darstellungen der höchsten besetzten Molekülorbitale).
