Abstract

Abstract.6,6'-Bis[2-(6-bromo-2-pyridyl)-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl]-2,2'-bipyridine, C26H20Br2N404,

Structure of 5,5'-dibromo-2,2'-bipyridine

“…Crystal structures of 2,2'-bipyridine (Merritt & Schroeder, 1956) and a derivative (Fronczek, Taylor, Gupta & Newkome, 1985) have been reported. Both reports show a coplanar anti conformation of the bipyridine moiety of the compounds which is similar to that of the title compound.…”
