The combination of π-donating amido with π-accepting pyridine coordination units in a tridentate chelate ligand causes a strong nephelauxetic effect in a homoleptic Cr<sup>III</sup> complex, which shifts its luminescence to the NIR-II spectral range. Previously explored Cr<sup>III</sup> polypyridine complexes typically emit between 727 and 778 nm (in the red to NIR-I spectral region), and ligand design strategies have so far concentrated on optimizing the ligand field strength. The present work ...[more]
