General description

α-(4-Pyridyl)benzhydrol(LOH) acts as a ligand and reacts with zinc halides giving the complexes [Zn(LOH)2X2] (X = Cl; X = Br; X = I). It reacts with Ag(CF3SO3) to form a mixed organic/inorganic analogue of wheel-and-axle diol complex [Ag(LOH)2(CF3SO3)(CH3CN)].

Application

Thiol-protecting reagent.
