Synthesis, characterization and molecular recognition of a bis-platinum terpyridine dimer

Chem Commun (Camb). 2008 Feb 21:(7):889-90. doi: 10.1039/b716459a. Epub 2008 Jan 17.

Abstract

A novel bis-platinum(II) terpyridine-based macrocycle has been quantitatively obtained by self-assembly; the Pt(II) host binds neutral planar and electron-rich aromatic guests with good selectivity in DMSO.
