Abstract

Correction for ‘New insight into the effects of N^N ligand isomerization and methyl modification on the phosphorescence properties of Cu(I) complexes with (1-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole/imidazole) ligands’ by Lu Shen et al., New J. Chem., 2018, 42, 3660–3670, https://doi.org/10.1039/C7NJ04879C.


The authors regret that some of the data in Tables 7 and 8 in the main manuscript were incorrect. The corrected versions of Tables 7 and 8 are shown below. In Section 3.6.2 of the original article, the kdnr values calculated using eqn (4) were underestimated with respect to the experimental findings; therefore, the subsequent discussions focus on the kenr values which were calculated using eqn (5). The corrected values for ΔE display the same trend as in the original article so the discussion of the relationship between the knr and the ΔE is still accurate in the original article and the overall conclusions of the article remain unchanged.
