The title salt, C18H26N42+·2Cl-, was obtained by the protonation of N,N-bis-(pyridin-4-ylmeth-yl)cyclo-hexane-1,4-di-amine with hydro-chloric acid in ethanol. The asymmetric unit consists of one half of an N,N-bis-(pyridin-3-ylmeth-yl)cyclo-hexane-1,4-di-ammonium dication, with a crystallographic inversion centre located at the centre of the cyclo-hexyl ring, and a chloride anion. The central c...

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C(23)H(23)N(3), which was synthesized by the condensation reaction between 2,6-diacetyl-pyridine and 2-dimethyl-aniline, adopts an E configuration about both C=N imine bonds. The dihedral angles formed by the benzene rings with the pyridine ring are 89.68 (5) and 53.62 (6)°.

The reaction of 3-amino-5-bromo-pyridine with N-iodo-succinimide in the presence of acetic acid produces the title compound, C(5)H(4)BrIN, with an iodo substituent in position 2 of the pyridine ring. The crystal structure features rather weak inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds linking the mol-ecules into chains along the z axis of the crystal.

Enantiopure helicene-based bis(pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine (bpp-[6]helicene), with the helicene unit in position 4 of pyridine ring, have been prepared and structurally characterized. Their chiroptical properties studied experimentally, both absorption circular dichroism (CD) spectra reproduced theoretically by time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). Remarkably, spite remote localization re...

The mol-ecule of the title nicotinonitrile derivative, C(22)H(19)BrN(2)O(2), is non-planar, the central pyridine ring making dihedral angles of 7.34 (14) and 43.56 (15)° with the 4-bromo-phenyl and 4-ethoxy-phenyl rings, respectively. The eth-oxy group of the 4-ethoxy-phenyl is slightly twisted from the attached benzene ring [C-O-C-C = 174.2 (3)°], whereas the eth-oxy group attached to the pyri...

The title compound, C15H18N2O2S {systematic name: 6-[2-(cyclo-hexyl-sulfan-yl)eth-yl]-5H-pyrrolo-[3,4-b]pyridine-5,7(6H)-dione}, was obtained from the reaction of pyridine-2,3-di-carb-oxy-lic anhydride (synonym: quinolinic anhydride) with 2-(cyclo-hexyl-sulfan-yl)ethyl-amine. The dihedral angle between the mean plane of the cyclo-hexyl ring and the quinolinic acid imide ring is 25.43 (11)°. In ...

The title mol-ecule, C(21)H(17)NO(4), reveals axial symmetry, with the pyridine N atom located on a crystallographic twofold axis. The mol-ecule is dish-shaped, with dihedral angles between the benzene and pyridine rings of 24.643 (1) and 24.797 (1)°, respectively. The -COO plane and the benzene ring are almost coplanar [dihedral angle = 5.286 (1)°].

In the title compound, C(20)H(18)N(4), the benzene ring lies about an inversion center. The central benzene-1,4-diamine unit is connected to two pyridine rings by the C=N imine bonds. The dihedral angle between the benzene and pyridine rings is 82.9 (1)°.

Cyclometallation of 2-(1-naphthyl)-pyridine is described. While cyclopalladation results in a five-membered metallacycle, cycloauration displays a completely orthogonal regioselectivity, resulting in the six-membered ring analogue. Bromination of the gold metallacycle results in the new C-H functionalisation product 2-(8-bromonaphth-1-yl)pyridine.

In the title compound, C(15)H(13)NO(3)S(2), the dithiol-ane ring adopts a twisted conformation. The mol-ecule exhibits a V-shaped conformation, with a dihedral angle of 79.05 (7)° between the benzene ring and the pyridine ring. In the crystal, C-H⋯O inter-actions are observed.
