Asymetric Bipyridine-Terpyridine-Copper(II) Complexes: An Approach for New Supramolecular Architectures

Hofmeier, Harald; Herdtweck, Eberhardt; Schubert, Ulrich S.

Abstract:

On the way towards novel supramolecular assemblies and polymers, several copper(II) complexes consisting of one terpyridine as well as one bipyridine ligand were synthesized in a one-step reaction. The compounds were characterized by UV/VIS spectroscopy and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Single crystals were obtained and their structures were determined by X-ray analyses.
