Resum
We report a novel cluster, [{Pt(C6F5)(bzq)} 2Pb(Spy)2] 1, that displays reversible vapoluminescence to specific organic vapours; this behaviour can be related to the stereochemical activity of the lone pair around the PbII in the ground state and to the distinct distortion of the coordination environment (1 and 1-solvent) upon photoexcitation.
