2,2':6',2"-Terpyridine-4,4',4"-tricarboxylic acid CAS: 216018-58-5 is a highly functionalized terpyridine ligand combining a rigid tridentate nitrogen-donor core with three carboxylic acid groups. This unique structure enables simultaneous metal coordination through the terpyridine unit and extended network formation via carboxylate linkages, making the compound especially valuable in coordination chemistry and metal–organic framework (MOF) research.
The terpyridine moiety readily forms stable complexes with a wide range of transition metals, while the carboxyl groups provide additional binding sites for metal ions or surfaces. As a result, this ligand is widely applied in the construction of multidimensional coordination polymers, MOFs, and functional hybrid materials with tunable electronic, magnetic, or catalytic properties.
