Oligomer and Mixed-Metal Compounds: Potential Multielectron Transfer Agents. Progress Report, July 1, 1988-February 28, 1989

摘要

We have made progress in synthesizing new ligands systems based on 2,2'-bipyridine. These new ligands have potential for designing square planar transition metal complexes and for providing photochemical stability to transition metal photocatalysts. A copper(II) derivative was synthesized and an x-ray structure was obtained to illustrate the coordination character of this new class of ligands. The following have also been synthesized and examined: multimetallic Ru(II), Re(I), Pt, Pd, and bispyridine complexes. 4 figs. (ERA citation 14:020161)
