Popis: The coordination sites of 2,6- bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine (1) toward protons and the diamagnetic metal ions Li ,N a , and Co 3 were investigated by NMR spectroscopy. Variable tem- perature 1 H and 13 C NMR experiments were performed on 1 in order to evaluate the tautomeric equilibrium and hydrogen bonding. Imidazole dicoordinated aro- matic nitrogen atoms were protonated by trichloroa- cetic acid and the three N-dicoordinated atoms by fuming H2SO4. Reactions of the ligand 1 and benzim- idazole 2 with metallic sodium or LiH afforded an- ionic species; the alkali metal ions appeared solvated by THF, but not by the ligands 1 or 2. In contrast, reaction of 1 with Co(III) produces the stable cation (Co(1-H)2) with cobalt ion coordinated by two mol- ecules of the monodeprotonated ligand. 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
