An object of the present invention is to provide a novel metal complex. A metal complex having a composition of [(Pt II ) 2 (M I ) 4 (L) 8 ], where M I is H + , Ag I , Au I or Cu I , and L is a compound represented by the following chemical formula. A metal complex having a composition of [(Pt II ) 2 (M I ) 4 (X) 2 (L) 6 ], where M I is Ag I , Au I or Cu I , X is Cl − , Br − or I − , and L is a compound represented by the following chemical formula. In the formula, R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently a hydrogen atom, a chlorine atom, a bromine atom, an iodine atom, a hydroxyl group, a phenyl group, a trifluoromethylphenyl group, a pentafluorophenyl group, a naphthyl group, a methyl group, an ethyl group, an i-propyl group, a t-butyl group, a trifluoromethyl group, a hydroxymethyl group or a hydroxyethyl group. At least one of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 in the formula is not a hydrogen atom. |
