A series of substituted 2,2':6',2'':6'',2''':6''',2''''-quinquepyridine ligands has been prepared and its co-ordination chemistry investigated.The presence of substituents on the ligand does not alter the co-ordination chemistry, and double-helical comple

We have prepared a novel ligand in which two qpy metal-binding domains are linked by a polyoxyethylene spacer. The new ligand reacts with copper(II) salts to form dinuclear double helicates with a hairpin structure. The hairpin complex and a model complex
