Towards Molecular Construction Platforms: Synthesis of a Metallotricyclic Spirane Based on Bis(2,2′:6′,2“‐Terpyridine)Ru II Connectivity

The design and construction of the first multicomponent stepwise assembly of a ‐based (tpy=terpyridine), three‐dimensional, propeller‐shaped trismacrocycle, 8 , are reported. Key steps in the synthesis involve the preparation of a hexaterpyridinyl triptycene and its reaction with dimeric, 60°‐direct...

Description
Summary:The design and construction of the first multicomponent stepwise assembly of a ‐based (tpy=terpyridine), three‐dimensional, propeller‐shaped trismacrocycle, 8 , are reported. Key steps in the synthesis involve the preparation of a hexaterpyridinyl triptycene and its reaction with dimeric, 60°‐directional, bisterpyridine‐Ru II building blocks. Characterization includes ESI‐ and ESI‐TWIM‐MS and TEM, along with 1D and 2D 1 H NMR spectroscopy.
