- Abstract:
- Herein, the new concept of thiol- para -fl uorine “click” chemistry is employed for the formation
of ruthenium(II) bis terpyridine metallopolymers in a fast and effi cient manner. In general,
the assembly of comparable metallopolymers requires high temperatures and long reaction
times. In contrast to established methods, when utilizing a
pentafl uorophenyl-substituted homoleptic Ru II bis terpyridine
complex, as a monomer, thiol-functionalized organic spacer
units can easily be introduced at low temperatures and in
very short reaction times. Furthermore, alternating arrangements
of different metal ions (e.g., Ru II and Fe II ) in metallopolymers
can be achieved.
