In the reaction of 4′-(4-ethynylphenyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine ( 3) with trans-[PtI 2(PEt 3) 2] and CuI, ligand 3 scavenges Cu(I) and forms [Cu 2(PPh 3) 2(μ-I)(μ- 3)]I, structural characterization of which shows that ligand 3 adopts a helical twist that parallels that found in related double helicates.
