Six N-alkylpyridinium salts [CnPy](2)[MCl4] (n = 4 or 12 and M = Co, Cu, Zn) were synthesized, and their structure and thermal properties were studied. The [C4Py](2)[MCl4] compounds are monoclinic and crystallize in the space group P2(1)/n. The crystals of the longer chain analogues [C12Py](2)[MCl4] are triclinic and crystallize in the space group P (1) over bar. Above the melting temperature, all compounds are ionic liquids (ILs). The derivatives with the longer C12 chain exhibit liquid crystallinity and the shorter chain compounds only show a melting transition. Consistent with single-crystal analysis, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy suggests that the [CuCl4](2-) ions in the Cu-based ILs have a distorted tetrahedral geometry.

The first heterodinuclear ruthenium(II) complexes of the 1,6,7,12-tetraazaperylene (tape) bridging ligand with iron(II), cobalt(II), and nickel(II) were synthesized and characterized. The metal coordination sphere in this complexes is filled by the tetradentate N,N-dimethyl-2,11-diaza[3.3](2,6)-pyridinophane (L-N4Me2) ligand, yielding complexes of the general formula [(L-N4Me2)Ru(mu-tape)M(L-N4Me2)](ClO4)(2)(PF6)(2) with M = Fe {[2](ClO4)(2)(PF6)(2)}, Co {[3](ClO4)(2)(PF6)(2)}, and Ni {[4](ClO4)(2)(PF6)(2)}. Furthermore, the heterodinuclear tape ruthenium(II) complexes with palladium(II)- and platinum(II)-dichloride [(bpy)(2)Ru(-tape)PdCl2](PF6)(2) {[5](PF6)(2)} and [(dmbpy)(2)Ru(-tape)PtCl2](PF6)(2) {[6](PF6)(2)}, respectively were also prepared. The molecular structures of the complex cations [2](4+) and [4](4+) were discussed on the basis of the X-ray structures of [2](ClO4)(4)MeCN and [4](ClO4)(4)MeCN. The electrochemical behavior and the UV/Vis absorption spectra of the heterodinuclear tape ruthenium(II) complexes were explored and compared with the data of the analogous mono- and homodinuclear ruthenium(II) complexes of the tape bridging ligand.
