Abstract

The complex [(bipy)(2)Ru(dpp)][PF6](2) which contains a vacant 2,2'-bipyridine-like metal-binding domain has been structurally characterised. This compound is a key building block for the construction of metallodendrimers using the "complexes as metals, complexes as ligands" approach. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
