A useful ligand involving three pyridyl donor arms and fluorocarbon substituents surrounding the coordination pocket has been assembled and utilized in coinage metal chemistry. This tris(pyridyl)borate serves as an excellent ligand support for the stabilization of ethylene complexes of copper, silver and gold.
