The crystal structure of the title compound, (C(10)H(9)N(2))(2)[Mn(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(3)(H(2)O)(8)](C(8)H(3)O(7)S)(2)·C(10)H(8)N(2)·15H(2)O, consists of dinuclear Mn(II) complex cations, sulfonato-benzene-dicarboxyl-ate trianions, 4-(4-pyridyl)pyridinium cations, uncoordin-ated 4,4'-bipyridine and uncoordinated water mol-ecules. One 4,4'-bipyridine mol-ecule bridges two Mn atoms, forming a centr...

2- and 5-methylresorcinol form co-crystals with 4,4'-bipyridine in which some of the bipyridine molecules are loosely bound. These molecules can be replaced with other molecules of a similar shape and size to give a general method for the engineering of a ternary co-crystal.

The title coordination compound, {[Co(C(11)H(15)O(3))(4)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)(H(2)O)]·7H(2)O}(n), consists of a pair of Co(II) atoms, four 3-hy-droxy-adamantane-1-carboxyl-ate anions (L), one water mol-ecule, two bridging 4,4'-bipyridine (4,4'-bpy) ligands and seven uncoordinated water mol-ecules. Both of the Co(II) ions are coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. Four L ligands bind to e...

The title compound, [Cu(2)(CN)(SCN)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)](n), contains two crystallographically independent Cu(I) atoms, each in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. Each Cu atom is coordinated by a bidentate chelating 2,2'-bipyridine ligand. A bridging cyanide anion links the two Cu(2,2'-bipyridine) units to form a binuclear unit. Adjacent binuclear units are connected by a thio-cyanate anion into ...

The title compound, [Cd(C(9)H(7)O(3))(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)], was synthesized under mild hydro-thermal conditions. The structure of the complex mol-ecule consists of four approximately planar fragments: two 3-(3-hy-droxyphenyl)propenoate residues and two 2,2'-bipyridine ligands [largest deviation from the least-squares planes is 0.240 (1) Å for one of 3-(3-hy-droxy-phenyl)propenoate residues]. T...

Mixed-ligand ruthenium(II) complex with 2,2′-bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline-3,8-dicarboxylic acid the composition [Ru(phen-C)(bpy)2]Cl2·5H2O (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, phen-C 1,10-phenantroline-3,8-dicarboxylic acid) has been synthesized characterized by spectral data. The tested as photocatalyst in aerobic oxidation reactions, including transformation of arylboronic acids to phenols, primary ...

Dinuclear cobalt-1,10-phenanthroline (1) and 2,2'-bipyridine (2) complexes bridged by 1,8-bis(2,2':6',2''-terpyrid-4'-yl)anthracene (btpyan) were prepared. Both of the complexes selectively catalysed the electrochemical four-electron reduction of dioxygen to H2O without the generation of H2O2 as a two-electron reduction product.

A new bis cyclometallated Ir(III) phosphor, [Ir(ppy)2L]PF6 (ppy = 2-phenylpyridine, L 4,4?-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-6,6?-dimethyl-2,2?-bipyridine was prepared and structurally characterized in the solid state (X-ray diffraction) solution (1 2D NMR spectroscopy). The compound exhibited yellow photoluminescence (?em 562 nm). quantum yield ? solvent-dependent (5% acetonitrile 19% dichloromethane soluti...
