Di(2-pyridyl) ketone, 98%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals

di-2-Pyridyl ketone has been used in the preparation of unusual {Ni(II)(3)Ln(III)(?-OR)(6)}(3+) complexes with a star topology. Its monoanionic form has been used in the synthesis of triangular Ni(2)M (M = lanthanide, Y) complexes. The Schiff base ligands derived from di-2-pyridyl ketone exhibit ant proliferative activity in SK-N-MC neuroepithelioma (cancer) cells.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

Applications
di-2-Pyridyl ketone has been used in the preparation of unusual {Ni(II)(3)Ln(III)(μ-OR)(6)}(3+) complexes with a ″star″ topology. Its monoanionic form has been used in the synthesis of triangular Ni(2)M (M = lanthanide, Y) complexes. The Schiff base ligands derived from di-2-pyridyl ketone exhibit ant proliferative activity in SK-N-MC neuroepithelioma (cancer) cells.

Solubility
Low solubility in water.

Notes
