Supramolecular self-assembly on a solid support: metal-directed complementarity

Resin immobilised (poly)-2,2`-bipyridines have been prepared and used as templates for the copper(II)- mediated assembly of alkene-functionalised 2,2`:6`,2 ``-terpyridines which undergo subsequent templated metathesis to form complementary poly-2,2`:6`,2 ``-terpyridine strands.
