Collection: Bipyridine Ligands, Terpyridine Ligands

Bipyridine Ligands, Terpyridine Ligands — covers bidentate (bipyridine) and tridentate (terpyridine) pyridine ligands and their derivatives bearing functional groups such as bromo, carboxylate, ester, or phosphonate. These ligands act as nitrogen chelators in the formation of transition metal complexes.

Bipyridine and Terpyridine Ligands are widely used in coordination chemistry to construct metal complexes that function as photocatalysts, sensitizers in dye-based solar cells, and components in supramolecular chemistry and luminescent materials. Functional groups such as carboxylate or phosphonate on the ligands facilitate anchoring to metal oxide surfaces, so they are widely used by inorganic chemistry and materials science researchers.
