In most of the crystal structures, two terpyridyl complexes were oriented head-to-tail or head-to-head, with head-to-tail orientation being most prevalent. The number of structures with other orientations was very small. Based on the analysis of interacting geometries, we classified overlaps of terpyridyl complexes into six types. The types were defined by values of several geometrical parameters and all interactions of the same type had very similar overlap patterns. © 2010 The Royal Society of Chemistry.restrictedAccessarticle10.1039/b917268h2-s2.0-77958119897
