Abstract:
New ligands and their complexes with iron(III) chloride have been suggested and prepared: (R,S)-, (R,R)- and (S,S)-2,6-bis(1-benzyl-4-isopropyl-4-methyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-5-on-2-yl) pyridines. Both the ligands and their complexes were characterised by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, optical rotation and X-ray diffraction.
