Abstract
A set of rigid, p-conjugated linear mono- and bisterpyridines and star-shaped tristerpyridines have been synthesized using Pd(0)-catalyzed coupling reactions and the Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction. The terpyridyl ligands obtained feature strong emission in the blue range with high quantum yields in dil. soln. and thin films. [on SciFinder (R)]
