Abstract
The syntheses of the five 2,2′: 6′,2″‐terpyridine (tpy) ligands 5–9 functionalized in the 4′‐position with a hydrazone substituent RR′CNNH (R=R′=Me; R=H, R′=4‐BrC~6~H~4~, 4‐O~2~NC~6~H~4~, 4‐MeOC~6~H~4~, or 3,5‐(MeO)~2~C~6~H~3~) are described. Protonation of the tpy domain of the ligands is facile. Solution behaviour has been studied by NMR and electronic spectroscopies. Representative structural data are presented for neutral and monoprotonated ligands, and illustrate that H‐bonding involving the formal amine NH unit is a dominant structural motif in all cases.

## Abstract The well‐known reaction of 4′‐chloro‐2,2′:6′,2′′‐terpyridine with alkoxide nucleophiles leads to 4′‐functionalized 2,2′:6′,2′′‐terpyridines. This reaction allows the easy introduction of different functional groups onto the terpyridine at the 4′‐position, i.e. opposite to the metal bind
