ChemInform Abstract: Molecular Helicity in Inorganic Complexes; Double Helical Binuclear Complexes of 2,2′:6′,2′′:6′′,2′′′:6′′′,2′′′′‐Quinquepyridine (L): Crystal Structures of (Cu2L2(O2CMe)) (PF6)3·H2O and (Cu2L2) (PF6)3·2 MeCN.

Abstract

AbstractThe Cu complex (I) and its Ni and Zn analogues are prepared from the title ligand and the metal acetates in boiling MeOH and isolated as PF6 salts (60‐80% yield).
