Synthesis and characterization of the 4,4'-bipyridyl dianion and radical monoanion. A structural study.
The reaction of ethylenediamine solutions of 4,4'-bipyridine with varying stoichiometric amounts of sodium resulted in the isolation of the 4,4'-bipyridyl radical anion (44bipy(*-)) and the unprecedented 4,4'-bipyridyl dianion (44bipy(2-)). The radical was characterized by single-crys...
