Construction of triangular metallomacrocycles: [M3(1,2-bis(2,2':6',2''-terpyridin-4-yl-ethynyl)benzene)3][M = Ru(II), Fe(II), 2Ru(II)Fe(II)].
Complexation of a predesigned (1,2-bis(2,2':6',2''-terpyridin-4-yl-ethynyl)benzene) ligand possessing a 60 degrees angle between two terpyridines with transition metals [Fe(II) and Ru(II)] afforded the self-assembled, triangular metallomacrocycles.
