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.

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.
