Isomers of 2,2′;6′,2′′-terpyridine and 2,6-dipyrazin-2-ylpyridine with aliphatic substituents: synthesis, coordination chemistry, catalytic and anticancer activities

While the synthesis of 4′-aryl substituted 2,2′;6′,2′′-terpyridine and its common isomer 4,2′;6′,4′′-terpyridine is trivial using the one-pot Krönke condensation procedure, their 4′-alkyl substituted ligands have been sparsely approached. 2,2′;4′,2′′-Terpyridine and...
