Structure and luminescence properties of a well-known macrometallocyclic trinuclear Au(I) complex and its adduct with a perfluorinated fluorophore showing cooperative anisotropic supramolecular interactions

The structure and luminescence properties of a well-known trinuclear Au(I) imidazolate complex are determined for the first time along with its interaction with the organic π acid perfluoronaphthalene in the solid state and solution.
