在这个角度来看，我们报告最近积累的数据，2，4，6-三（2-嘧啶基）-1，3，5-三嗪（TPymT）的合成和配位化学。虽然是一个非常有吸引力的配体，由于存在三个稠合三联吡啶类配位口袋，TPymT的配位化学有一个曲折的过去。这可以主要归因于配体的水解，其在温和条件下容易发生。因此，在1959年首次合成后，它只被用于合成配位化合物，直到我们在2013年初开始重新研究它的化学性质。尽管与其使用相关的重大挑战，我们在过去两年的工作已经证明，与TPymT的配位化学确实是可能的。在此，我们概述了这一系列工作的现状，并讨论了其在多孔材料、催化和晶体工程等各个领域的潜在影响。
In this perspective we report on recently accumulated data on the synthesis and coordination chemistry of 2,4,6-tris(2-pyrimidyl)-1,3,5-triazine (TPymT). Although a highly attractive ligand, owing to the presence of three fused terpyridine-like coordination pockets, the coordination chemistry of TPymT has something of a chequered past. This can principally be attributed to the hydrolysis of the ligand, which readily occurs under mild conditions. Thus, after first being synthesised in 1959 it had only been used a handful of times to synthesise coordination compounds until we began reinvestigating its chemistry in early 2013. Despite the significant challenges associated with its use, our work over the past two years has demonstrated that coordination chemistry with TPymT is indeed possible. Herein, we describe an overview of this body of work as it stands, and discuss its potential impact in a variety of areas including porous materials, catalysis and crystal engineering.
