Long live the complex! A heteroleptic ruthenium(II) complex of a click‐derived tridentate triazolylidene ligand (see graphic) and the parent terpyridine were prepared and investigated by experimental and computational methods. The new ligand enables excited‐state lifetimes and room‐temperature emission quantum yields that can compete with tris(bipyridine)ruthenium(II) complexes, but with the structural benefits of bis(terpyridine)ruthenium(II) complexes.
