Abstract

AbstractNew multifunctional ligands based on the combination of 4H‐imidazoles with pyridine subunits have been synthesised. The long wavelength absorptions originating fromthe merocyanine‐chromophore can be shifted towards the near infrared (NIR) region by introduction of additionalauxochromic groups. Due to different complexation spheres these hybrid‐ligands form the requirements for the construction of heterobimetallic complexes. In addition, the hybrid ligands are redox active compounds showing two separated fully reversible reductions. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2009)
