An efficient approach for the synthesis of 5,5″- or 5,6,5″-aryl substituted 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridines, bearing an anneleted cyclopentene unit in one of the side-chain pyridine rings for the improved solubility in organic solvents, via their 1,2,4-triazine analogues has been developed. By using this approach, various aromatic substituents were introduced in the 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine core. Depending on the nature of the aromatic substituents, the obtained terpyridines exhibited an intense emission in a range of ca. 344–394 nm in acetonitrile solutions. For the most representative compounds, pronounced bathochromic shifts in both absorption and emission spectra were observed compared with previously reported substituted terpyridines.

Based on the pH-sensitive, conformationally tunable triazole polypeptides, we reported the manipulation of helix–coil transition profile determined by the leveraging interactions of the triazole and other side-chain helix-influencing ligands.
