Heterochiral or Homochiral Self‐Assembly: Mercury(II), Cadmium(II), and Spontaneous Resolution of Silver(I) Complexes Derived from a Racemic Bis(pyridyl) Ligand

A novel racemic bis(pyridyl) ligand (rac‐L) was designed and synthesized by Schiff condensation reaction. Five complexes, [Hg2(LR)(LS)Cl4]·2CH3CH2OH (1), [Cd(LR)(LS)Cl2]n (2), {[Cd(LR)(LS)SO4(H2O)]·11H2O}n (3), {[Ag(LR)2]NO3·CH3CN}n (4a) and {[Ag(LS)2]NO3·CH3CN}n (4b) have been synthesized and chara...
