A Short Synthetic Route to 4,7‐Dihalogenated 1,10‐Phenanthrolines with Additional Groups in 3,8‐Position: Soluble Precursors for Macrocyclic Oligophenanthrolines
Herein, we describe the preparation of several dynamic multicomponent supramolecularracks based on copperphenanthroline complexes using the HETPHEN concept (heteroleptic bisphenanthroline complexes). This approach employs bulky aryl substituents at the bisimine coordination sites to control the coordination equilibrium. The racks were characterised by spectroscopic methods, both in solution (1H NMR
