2,2'-Bipyridine (Highly Pure)

2,2'-Bipyridine (Highly Pure) by Molecular Depot is a highly pure 2,2′-bipyridine, a bidentate nitrogen ligand that chelates transition metals. The two pyridine nitrogens grip a metal ion in a five-membered chelate ring, which makes the compound one of the foundational ligands of coordination chemistry and a strong sequestrant of iron. It is used as a chelating ligand in coordination and catalysis chemistry, to inhibit metal-dependent enzymes by sequestering their metal and in iron determination and depletion. Each unit contains 50 g. MBP supplies Molecular Depot research reagents to research labs in the United States, Canada and worldwide.
