General description

2,2′:6′,2′′;-Terpyridine is a tridentate ligand that can be prepared in two steps, starting with 2-acetylpyridine. It coordinates with metal centers to form complexes. It is also utilized in the synthesis of chiral derivatives for asymmetric catalysis.

Application

Due to the presence of three near-coplanar nitrogen donor atoms, 2,2′:6′,2′′;-terpyridine may be used as a metal-binding domain to form metallo-supramolecular structures.

Dramatic improvements in ribozyme mimics have been achieved by employing the principles of small molecule catalysis to the design of macromolecular, biomimetic reagents. Ribozyme mimics derived from the ligand 2,9-dimethylphenanthroline (neocuproine) show at least 30-fold improvements in efficiency at sequence-specific
