Application

di-2-Pyridyl ketone has been used in the preparation of unusual {Ni(II)(3)Ln(III)(μ-OR)(6)}(3+) complexes with a "star" topology. Its monoanionic form has been used in the synthesis of triangular Ni(2)M (M = lanthanide, Y) complexes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The Schiff base ligands derived from di-2-pyridyl ketone exhibit antiproliferative activity in SK-N-MC neuroepithelioma (cancer) cells.
