Abstract
The synthesis and characterisation of a series of new π-donor substituted vinyl bipyridines and their rhenium, zinc and mercury complexes {donor = 4-R2N–C6H4–[R2N = Me2N, Bun 2N, (Me)(OctnN)]; (η5-C5H5)Fe(η5-C5H4-)} with large nonlinear optical properties are presented; EFISH experiments at 1.34 µm show that complexation leads to a strong enhancement (by a factor of 3 to 9) of the molecular hyperpolarisability β(0).Keywords
