The ligands 2-(N-(X-pyridyl)carbamoyl)pyridine (X=2, 3 or 4 for HL1-HL3, respectively) and 2,6-bis(N-(Y-pyridyl)carbamoyl)pyridine (Y=2, 3 or 4 for H2L4-H2L6, respectively) in their mono- and di-deprotonated forms have been used to synthesize kinetically stable cobalt(III) compounds [Co(L1-3)3] (1-3) and Na[Co(L4-6)2] (4-6), respectively. The Co(III) ion is in octahedral environment and is surr...

The reaction of nickel(II) nitrate hexa-hydrate, guanidine (G) and 4-hydroxy-pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (hypydcH(2)) in a 1:2:2 molar ratio in aqueous solution resulted in the formation of the title compound, (CH(6)N(3))(2)[Ni(C(7)H(3)NO(5))(2)]·2H(2)O or (GH)(2)[Ni(hypydc)(2)]·2H(2)O. The six donor atoms of the two 4-hydroxy-pyridine-2,6-dicarboxyl-ate or (hypydc)(2-) ligands form a distor...

2, 6-Bis (4-carboxyphenoxy) benzonitrile was first synthesized by condensation of 2, 6-difluorobenzonitrile with p-Hydroxybenzoic acid in the presence of KOH and DMSO. And then the reaction of 2, 6-bis (4-carboxyphenoxy) benzonitrile with sulfur oxychloride yieded 2, 6-bis (4-chloroformylphenoxy) benzonitrile (BClPOBN). A series of novel soluble aromatic polyesters with pendant cyano groups wer...
