Hydrothermal synthesis,characterization and properties of a d10 metal coordination polymer with a layered structure based on carboxyphosphinate ligand, 4,4′-bipyridine and four-coordinated zinc ion

Abstract

Hydrothermal reaction of Zn(NO₃)₂ · 6?H₂O with 2-carboxyethyl(phenyl)phosphinate (H₂L) and 4,4'-bipyridine (4,4′-bipy) led to a novel zinc(II) carboxyphosphinate [ZnL(4,4′-bipy)_0.5]_n (1). The zinc ion is tetrahedrally coordinated by two phosphinate oxygen atoms, one carboxylate oxygen atom, and one nitrogen atom of 4,4′-bipy ligand. The L^2- ligand and zinc ion can be seen as three- and four-connected nodes, respectively. Compound 1 shows a layered network with (3,4)-connected topology. It exhibits a broad blue fluorescent emission band at 459?nm, which can be attributed to 4,4′-bipy intraligand emission as well as to H₂L emission. It is a diamagnetic system between 300?K and 11?K.

Synthesis,Structures, and Photoluminescence Properties of Five Novel Zinc(II) and Cadmium(II) Coordination Polymers based on Different Zwitterionic Pyridine Ligands

A series of five new Zn^II and Cd^II mixed‐ligand coordination polymers, namely, {[Zn(L₁)(4,4′‐bpy)] · (ClO₄) · 2H₂O} ( 1 ), {[Zn(L₂)(4,4′‐bpy)_0.5] · (ClO₄)} ( 2 ), {[Zn(L₃)(4,4′‐bpy)] · (NO₃) · 2H₂O} ( 3 ), {[Cd(L₄)(4,4′‐bpy)_0.5(NO₃)] · 5H₂O} ( 4 ), and {[Zn(L₄)(4,4′‐bpy)] · Cl · H₂O} ( 5 ) [4,4′‐bpy = 4,4′‐bipyridine, L₁ = 4‐carboxy‐1‐(4‐carboxybenzyl)pyridin‐1‐ium chloride, L₂ = 3‐carboxy‐1‐(4‐carboxybenzyl)pyridin‐1‐ium chloride, L₃ = 4‐carboxy‐1‐(3‐carboxybenzyl)pyridin‐1‐ium chloride, and L₄ = 3‐carboxy‐1‐(3‐carboxybenzyl)pyridin‐1‐ium chloride], were obtained by the reactions of the 4,4′‐bipyridine with four dicarboxylate zwitterionic pyridine ligands. Single‐crystal X‐ray structural analyses reveal that the five complexes demonstrate different molecular frameworks coming from various coordination modes and flexibilities of different dicarboxylate zwitterionic pyridine ligands and central metal atoms. Mononuclear twofold dinuclear 2D twofold interpenetrating net for 2 , four‐coordinate mononuclear twofold interpenetrating 2D layer for 3 , mononuclear 2D layer arranged in parallel and with large grids for 4 , and twofold trans interpenetrating 2D network for compound 5 . The structural diversities in 1 – 5 indicate that the nature of the ligands and the presence of different metal atoms have a great influence on central metal coordination modes and the structural topologies of the metal‐organic molecular architectures. In addition, π ··· π stacking interactions also play important roles in the final crystal packing and supramolecular frameworks. The powder X‐ray diffraction, elemental analysis, and photoluminescence properties of 1 – 5 were studied, which show that architectures play an important role in emission bands and intensities.
