| Abstract: | A new bis(terpyridine) ligand with an anthraquinone linker was synthesized. Stepwise coordination reactions at the gold surface using this ligand gave homo-metal oligomer wires up to pentamer, n FeL 1 ] (n = 1–5), and hetero-metal oligomer wires with ferrocene as the terminal group, 1FeL 1 1FeL 2 Fc] . Electrochemical properties of these modified electrodes were examined. |
