Abstract
Using an adaptation of the Jameson method for the synthesis of 2,2':6' ,2''-terpyridine (terpy), a ditolyl-functionalised ligand has been pre pared in which the substituted groups are located in the highly unusua l 3,3 '' position. The new ligand represents an attempt to develop ter py-based systems with di-functionality that emerges from the 'back sid e' of the chelator. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
