Application

2,6-Pyridinedimethanol can be used as a ligand to synthesize a variety of metal complexes and catalysts. It can also be used as a reactant to prepare Fe(III) complexes [Fe(18)O(6)(OH)(8)(pdm)(10)(pdmH)(4)(H(2)O)(4)](ClO(4))(10) and [Fe(9)O(4)(OH)(2)(O(2)CMe)(10)(pdm)(pdmH)(4)](NO(3)).

In this study, the researchers successfully embellished the surface of halloysite (Ag/HNTs) with silver using halloysite, silver nitrate (AgNO3), and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). The researchers then prepared polyurethane that contained pyridine ring by using 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) and polytetramethylene glycol (PTMG)

We report the dynamic behavior of diselenide-containing hydrophilic polyurethanes and hydrogels based on diselenide exchange reactions in an aqueous media. Diselenide-containing linear and cross-linked polyurethanes were synthesized via polyaddition reactions using diselenide-containing diol in combination with pyridinium diol that enhances

The syntheses, crystal structures and magnetochemical characterization are reported for two new Fe(III) complexes [Fe(18)O(6)(OH)(8)(pdm)(10)(pdmH)(4)(H(2)O)(4)](ClO(4))(10) (3) and [Fe(9)O(4)(OH)(2)(O(2)CMe)(10)(pdm)(pdmH)(4)](NO(3)) (4). They were synthesized from the use of the potentially O,N,O tridentate chelate, 2,6-pyridinedimethanol (pdmH(2)), in the presence or absence of carboxylate
