P. Dupau et al., STRAIGHTFORWARD SYNTHESIS OF 4-FORMYL-2,2'-BIPYRIDINE AND 4,4'-DIFORMYL-2,2'-BIPYRIDINE - ACCESS TO NEW DIALKENYL SUBSTITUTED BIPYRIDYL LIGANDS, Tetrahedron letters, 37(42), 1996, pp. 7503-7506
4-Formyl- and 4,4'-diformyl-2,2'-bipyridines have been prepared in two
steps and in 52-71% overall yields via examination of the correspondi
ng 4-methyl and 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine derivatives. The synthes
is of two new 4,4'-bialkenyl-2,2'-bipyridyl ligands is also described.
