A ligand strand that displays anion-dependant reactivity with acetonitrile; formation of either a mononuclear complex or head-to-tail circular helicate
The ligand L 2,2 contains two bidentate domains separated by a 3,3-diamino-2,2′-biphenyl spacer unit and with Cu(ClO 4 ) 2 a mononuclear species is formed ( e.g. [Cu( L 2,2 )] 2+ ). Upon coordination with Cu(triflate) 2 the ligand undergoes reaction with an acetonitrile solvent, producing a differen...

contains two bidentate domains separated by a 3,3-diamino-2,2′-biphenyl spacer unit and with Cu(ClO

a mononuclear species is formed (
e.g.
[Cu(

2+
). Upon coordination with Cu(triflate)
2
the ligand undergoes reaction with an acetonitrile solvent, producing a different ligand with unsymmetrical bidentate and tridentate domains (

). This new ligand results in the formation of a tetranuclear head-to-tail circular helicate [Cu

showing that in the presence of the triflate anion the ligand denticity is changed.
