2,2′-Bipyridine-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid（Cat No.:L045593）is a bipyridine derivative where two pyridine rings are linked at the 2,2′ positions, and carboxylic acid groups are attached at the 4,4′ positions of each pyridine ring. This structure makes it a versatile ligand for metal coordination, commonly used in coordination chemistry and the development of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The carboxyl groups allow for further functionalization, providing sites for metal ion coordination, while the bipyridine core offers chelation capabilities. This compound is valuable in catalysis, sensing applications, and the design of advanced materials with tunable electronic properties.
