Abstract: The structures of Au(I) complexes, H3PAuC≡CPh(a), H3Pau(C≡C-1,4-C6H4)Ph(b) and H3PAu(C≡C-1,4-C6H4)C≡CPh(c) were optimized by the ab initio MP2 and CIS methods for the ground states and excited states, respectively. It was shown that the electron transitions weaken the bonding between Au and ligands. The lowest-energy phosphorescent emissions from A3A′→1A′ were predicted at 530, 610, and 615 nm for complexes a—c, respectively, agreeing well with experimental data. The emissions were attributed to the pπ*(Ph)→pπ(Ph) transition nature modified by the Au→C charge transfer(MLCT) and the Au(6p)→Au(5d) transition (MCCT). With the increase of conjugated lengths of complexes, the participation of Au(p) orbital decreases in the excited state. Consequently, the corresponding emission wavelength redshifts.
