A series of complexes containing hypodentate didentate 2,2':6',2 ''-te
trpyridine (terpy) ligands of general formula [Ru(L-N,N')(2)(terpy-N,N
')](2+) [L = 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy) or 1,10-phenanthroline] have been
prepared. The complexes [Ru(bipy-N,N')(2)(terpy-N,N')][PF6](2) and [Ru
(bipy-N,N')(2)(bterpy-N,N')][PF6](2) (bterpy = 6-bromo-2,2':6'2 ''-ter
pyridine) have been structurally characterised and shown to contain th
e didentate terpy ligand in the solid state.
