Application
3,4,7,8-Tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline serves as a versatile metal-chelating agent, playing a crucial role in various synthetic applications. It is utilized in the formation of complex structures, such as the heteroleptic cationic Ir(III) complex, specifically 3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline-bis[2-(2',4'-difluorophenyl)pyridine]iridium(III) hexafluorophosphate. Additionally, it acts as a ligand in the creation of dinuclear Cu(II) hypocrelin B complexes and forms tetraaqua(3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline-kappa2N,N')zinc(II) thiosulfate complex with zinc, underscoring its importance in coordinating complex metal structures.
