Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(18)H(16)N(6)·2CH(3)OH, was prepared by the reaction of 5,5'-bis-(bromo-meth-yl)-2,2'-bipyridine with imidazole. The main mol-ecule lies on an inversion center located at the mid-point of the C-C bond joining the two pyridine rings. The asymmetric unit therefore contains one half-mol-ecule and one methanol solvent mol-ecule. The dihedral angle between the pyridine and imidazole rings is 72.32 (5)°. In the crystal, weak inter-molecular O-H⋯N, C-H⋯N and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds contribute to the stabilization of the packing.
