Graphical Abstract
  • symmetrically 4,4″-functionalized 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridines is reported. In addition to the biscarboxylic acid 4,4″-tpy(CO2H)2 (3), the anthryl esters 4,4″-tpy(CO2CH2Anth)2 (5a) and 4,4″-tpy(CO2CH2CH2OAnth)2 (5b) were synthesized. Furthermore, both anthryl esters were used to synthesize symmetric iron(II)-bis
  • (terpyridine)complexes 6a–b. Irradiation experiments were carried out with both the free ligands and an iron(II)-complex in order to investigate the photochemistry of the compounds.

  • diarylethenes [10][11]. There have also been reports about anthracene functionalized terpyridines in which an anthracene unit was used as a fluorescent sensor [12], spacer [13] or intercalator [14]. Herein we report the synthesis of two twofold anthracene functionalized terpyridines, their iron(II) complexes

  • ), Co(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II). The UV–vis-spectra of the iron(II) complex [Fe2+@10a], obtained by reaction of 10a with ferric chloride tetrahydrate, are shown in Figure 4. Apart from the expected bathochromic shift of the UV-bands of the ligand [18], an MLCT band at λ = 570 nm was observed. While the UV
  • absorption decreases upon UV-irradiation, no significant change of the absorption in the visible region occurred. This indicates inhibition of the photochromic reaction of the diarylethene by the MLCT transition, as previously reported for other iron(II) complexes of bisterpyridine thienylethenes [10]. In
  • contrast to the iron(II) complex, the ditopic ligand seems to retain its photochromic properties in the cobalt(II) and nickel(II) complexes – synthesized from CoCl2 and [Ni(acac)2], respectively – although the photocyclisation takes much longer than with free 10a (about 5 minutes compared to ca. 30 seconds
