Abstract:Enantiomerically pure, C2‐symmetric 2,6‐bis(pyrazol‐3‐yl) pyridine ligands were obtained by treatment of diethyl‐2,6‐pyridinedicarbonate with (1R,4R)‐(+)‐camphor in the presence of NaH followed by ring closure with hydrazine. After twofold N‐alkylation at the pyrazole rings, the addition of iron(II) chloride led to the according pentacoordinate dichloridoiron(II) complexes. All intermediates of the ligand synthesis, the ligands bearing NCH3 and NCH2C6H5 groups and the derived iron(II) complexes were structural… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
