A new N , O ‐bischelator‐bridged dirhenium(I) metallacycle, [Re 2 (CO) 6 (μ‐η 4 ‐mpdo)(μ‐4,4′‐tmdp)] ( 1 , H 2 mpdo = 2‐methylpyrimidine‐4,6‐diol, 4,4′‐tmdp = 4,4′‐trimethylenedipyridine) has been self‐assembled in a one‐pot reaction in p ‐xylene at 140 °C. Compound 1 displays unusual multiple phosphorescence emissions at room temperature; an emission quantum yield of 0.26 ± 0.03 and triexponential decay with an average radiative decay constant of 0.052 μs ( λ max = 342 nm) were determined. These results as well as those of DFT/TDDFT calculations confirmed the nature of the emitting states.
