2-Picolylamine |
2-Picolylamine is an organic compound with the formula HNCHCHN. |
A colorless liquid, it is a common bidentate ligand and a precursor to more complex multidentate ligands. |
It is usually prepared by hydrogenation of 2-cyanopyridine. |
One such complex is Baratta's catalyst RuCl(PPh)(ampy) (ampy = 2-picolylamine) for transfer hydrogenation. |
Salts of the complex [Fe(pyCHNH)] exhibit spin crossover behavior, whereby the complex switches from high to low spin configurations, depending on the temperature. |
The LD50 is low, being 750 mg/kg (oral, quail). |
