Deprotonation of polycarboxylic acids induces the self‐assembly of terpyridylplatinum( II ) complexes (see picture) and triggers remarkable changes in the UV/Vis spectra and emission intensities. The changes in the electronic spectra arise from metal‐metal‐to‐ligand charge transfer transitions resulting from the aggregation of the complexes.
