Terpyridine derivatives: preparation and complexation properties

In this thesis we report synthesis of chosen terpyridine derivatives and their availability to make a complex with Zinc (II) ions and Iron (II) ions. These complexes were characterised and we studied their suitability to build supramolecular materials. Iron (II) complexes are more stable, but the Zinc (II) complexes are more suitable due to their good stability combined with great photophysical properties. We also report the polymerization of 4'-ethynyl-2, 2': 6', 2''-terpyridine as substance, which combines in the structure the possibility to make common covalent and non-covalent polymers. Last part of this thesis considers the synthesis of phosphole-based substances, which make as well as the terpyridine derivatives full conjugated system. Keywords: terpyridine, complexation, stability constan
