we have recently synthesized [ni (map) ] complex [h-map= 2- (methylamino) pyridine]. 2- (methy1amino)pyridine reacts with meli in thf and generates the lithium salt (li-map). further reaction of nicl with two equivalent of this ligand in thf leads to the formation of a dark red solution. analytical data, molecular weight, and magnetic susceptibility of this complex confirm the formula [ni (map)...

A series of dimetallic and monometallic Cp*Ir(III) complexes bearing naphthalene-diimide-decorated N-heterocyclic carbene/pyridine [NDI-(NHC-pyridine)] ligands were prepared characterized. The show a C,C-chelating coordination the NHC-pyridine ligand, with pyridine ring ligand bound to metal via cyclometallation rather than by its nitrogen atom, although atom could be achieved subjecting one re...

1. Inhibition by pyridine of reduction of NAD by ethanol in the presence of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase was studied at 25 degrees in 60mm-glycine buffer (K(+), pH9.3). 2. The apparent Michaelis constant for ethanol increases linearly and that for NAD increases non-linearly with pyridine concentration. 3. Rates, v, observed in the presence of pyridine are lower than the values calculated from th...
