Abstract

Abstract : The Cover Feature shows the contrasting emission properties of crystal polymorphs of a clothespin‐shaped bimetallic platinum(II) complex bearing iodine atoms. The polymorph with an interpenetrating alignment brought about by one‐dimensional infinite I⋯π interactions is less emissive, while the polymorph with a non‐interpenetrating alignment resulting from a two‐dimensional constraint network consisting of I⋯I and Pt⋯Pt interactions exhibits strong phosphorescence.
