A gold(I) complex containing an open‐shell luminescent (3,5‐dichloro‐4‐pyridyl)bis(2,4,6‐trichlorophenyl)methyl (PyBTM) radical was prepared. The complex showed fluorescence centered mainly on the coordinated PyBTM ligand. The photophysical and photochemical properties were positively modulated upon coordination to Au I ; the photoluminescence quantum yield, fluorescence wavelength, and the stability in the photoexcited state all increased.
