title: 4'-Vinyl-2,2':6',2"-terpyridine
abstract: The title compound, C(17)H(13)N(3), is a versatile precursor for polymeric terpyridine derivatives and their metal complexes. The molecule has transoid and near-coplanar pyridine rings. However, the vinyl group is forced out of the plane of the terpyridyl moiety by a close H.H contact.
