The effect of 4 '-substituents on the kinetics of ligand substitution in 2,2 ': 6 ',2 ''-terpyridine platinum(II) complexes

The rates of hydrolysis of five (4′-substituted-2,2′:6′,2′-terpyridine) platinum(II) (n-propylamine) complexes exhibit a high sensitivity to the electronic properties of the terpyridine ligand; analysis using the Hammett relationship gives a ρ value of +2.34.
