4,4′,4″-Trimethyl-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine by Oxidative Coupling of 4-Picoline
نویسندگان
چکیده
Alkylated terpyridine ligands are an increasingly important component of catalysis and dyes but are costly because their synthesis is challenging and often low-yielding. We report an improved method for the Pd/C-catalyzed dehydrogenative coupling of 4-picoline to form the bi- and terpyridine. The addition of MnO2 improves the yield of the reaction, making the reaction useful on a large scale (up to 200 mmol). The use of Pd(OAc)2 or Pd/C/pivalic acid leads to the selective formation of bipyridine.

Synthesis and redox behavior of biferrocenyl-functionalized ruthenium(II) terpyridine gold clusters.
Spectroscopic and electrochemical characterizations of ferrocene- and biferrocene-functionalized terpyridine octanethiolate monolayer-protected clusters were investigated and reported. The electrochemical measurements of Ru2+ coordinated with 4'-ferrocenyl-2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine and 4'-biferrocenyl-2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine complexes were dominated by the Ru2+/Ru3+ redox couple (E(1/2) at appr...

In the title compound, [PtCl(C(27)H(35)N(3))]Cl·C(7)H(8), the Pt(II) atom is coordinated in a pseudo-square-planar fashion by the N atoms of a 4,4',4''-tri-tert-butyl-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (tbtrpy) ligand and a Cl atom. The Pt-N distance of the N atom on the central pyridine is 1.941 (4) Å, while the peripheral N atoms have Pt-N distances of 2.015 (4) and 2.013 (4) Å. The Pt-Cl bond distance ...

The central pyridine ring of the 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine fragment of the title compound, C(35)H(24)N(4)O(2), forms dihedral angles of 8.3 (2), 10.6 (3) and 39.4 (3)°, respectively, with the two outer pyridine rings and the attached benzene ring. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯O inter-actions link the mol-ecules into chains in [010].
