2, 2-Bipyridines having β-lactoside, β-d-glucoside, β-d-galactoside, and N-acetyl-β-d- glucosaminide were prepared and then, complexed with ferrous ion to afford trivalent glycoclusters having tris-bipyridine ferrous complex cores. Each glycocluster provides a dynamic combinatorial library composed of four diastereomeric stereoisomers (Δmer, Δfac, Λmer, and Λfac) whose ratios depend on their relative stabilities.
