Cyclometalated Pt(II)beta-diketonates are widely used as efficient luminescent materials but are typically prepared at high temperatures in low yields using excess reagents. A one-pot synthesis of these complexes is described employing stoichiometric reagents and short reaction times at ambient temperature, giving yields of up to 94%. The method is applicable to a broad range of substrates including (NC)-C-boolean AND, (PC)-C-boolean AND, and (CC)-C-boolean AND chelate Pt(II) complexes and different beta-diketonate ligands.
