Abstract:
In the title co-crystal, C(10)H(8)N(2)·C(8)H(7)NO(4)S, the formate group is coplanar with the pyridyl ring of the acid [dihedral angle = 6.2 (7)°], while the carb-oxy-methyl-sulfanyl group makes a C-S-C-C torsion angle of 70.2 (1)° with the pyridine ring. The dihedral angle between the pyridyl rings of the 4,4'-bipyridine mol-ecule is 27.4 (1)°. The acid and the 4,4'-bipyridine mol-ecules are involved in hydrogen bonding via carb-oxy-lic O and pyridyl N atoms. The structure is further consolidated by inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating a three-dimensional network.

IUPAC Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acids
For acyclic saturated monocarboxylic acids, the longest hydrocarbon chain containing the –COOH carbon is identified as the parent chain. Then, the last -e of the parent hydrocarbon name is replaced with a suffix -oic acid.

Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Carboxylic acid derivatives contain an acyl group attached to a heteroatom such as chlorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. The carbonyl carbon and oxygen are both sp2-hybridized with an unhybridized p orbital.
The three sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl carbon form three σ bonds, one each with the carbonyl oxygen, the α carbon, and the heteroatom, whereas the other two sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl oxygen are occupied by the lone pairs. Further, the unhybridized p...
