Abstract
2,4,6-Tri(4-pyridyl)-s-triazine is prepared from 4-cyanopyridine by a cationic and anionic mechanism. It forms with transition metal chlorides in toluene or benzene the complexes: (FeCl3)3(TPyT)2, and (MeCl2)3(TPyT)2 with Me = Ni, Co, Cu. The IR spectra, magnetic and electrical conductivity measurements are discussed.
