Hot Communication: Exploring the metal-mediated reactivity of 2-pyridinealdehyde oxime

The reactivity of ligands upon coordination to a metal ion is currently a very exciting area.

The reactivity of ligands upon coordination to a metal ion is currently a very exciting area.

Read about the rare and novel transformations of the oxime ligand, 2-pyridinealdehyde oxime, when it is reacted with Zn(II) sources, in this HOT communication from Annie Powell, Spyros Perplepes et al.

It’s currently free to access so do take a look!
