Abstract

Abstract 2, 2′: 6′, 2′′-Terpyridines functionalized in the 4′-position have been prepared by reaction of 2, 6-bis-(pyrid-2-yl)-4-pyridone under basic conditions with different electrophiles. The electrophiles consist of functionalized alkyl chains, which are terminated with different anionic leaving groups such as bromides, chlorides and tosylates. These reactions yielded terpyridines, which were modified at the 4′-position with heptoxy-, ...
