Can 4,4 '-bipyridine N,N '-dioxide play the same important role as 4,4 '-bipyridine in the construction of metal coordination networks and crystal engineering?
Dl. Long et al., Can 4,4 '-bipyridine N,N '-dioxide play the same important role as 4,4 '-bipyridine in the construction of metal coordination networks and crystal engineering?, CHEM COMMUN, (22), 2000, pp. 2273-2274
Various binding modes of 4,4'-bipyridine N,N'-dioxide (L) for crystal engin
eering are demonstrated in the complexes [Zn(MeOH)(2)L-3](SiF6). 3MeOH and
[ZnL6](NO3)(2), which include examples of M-L coordination bonds, hydrogen-
bonding and pi-pi stacking interactions.
