Poly(2-pyridyl-phosphines) bridged by various linkers can be prepared by treatment of 2-bromopyridine with <i>n</i>-butyllithium and various phosphine chloride backbones in anhydrous ether. The coordination chemistry of transition metal (M = NiII, CuI,  ZnII) and lanthanide (III) nitrates (Ln = NdIII, SmIII, YbIII) with these ligands was investigated.  Compounds and complexes were characterized by X-ray crystallography, IR, UV-visible and 1H/31P NMR spectroscopies.
