Synthesis and Structural Characterization of Mono- and Di-nuclear Zinc(Ⅱ) Coordination Compounds of Triphenylphosphoniopropionate

Two novel coordination compounds of Zn(Ⅱ) with Ph3P (CH2)2CO-2(L), namely, [ZnL4(H2O)2]·(ClO4)2·2H2O(compound 1) and [Zn2Cl4(μ-L-O,O′)2](compound 2), have been prepared. The single crystal X-ray structure analysis of these compounds indicates that in compound 1 the Zn(Ⅱ) atom is coordinated by four monodentate carboxylato groups on the equatorial plane and two aqua ligands occupy the axial coordination positions. The pendant oxygen atoms form strong hydrogen bonds with the aqua molecules which results in the stability of this structure. In compound 2, two Zn(Ⅱ) atoms are bridged by a pair of carboxylato groups, showing a skew-bridge mode, and thus enabling a long Zn(Ⅱ)…Zn(Ⅱ) separation. As we know, it is a dinuclear coordination compound with the longest Zn…Zn separation.

Magnetic susceptibility data support that there are stronger antiferromagnetic interactions between the radical and Mn(Ⅱ) ion, weak antiferromagnetic inter     

Two New d~(10) Supramolecular Polymers Constructed by 1H-Pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-3-amine and 1,4-Benzenedicarboxylic Acids

Two new coordination polymers, [Cd(BDC)(HL)]n(I) and {[Zn(BDC)(HL)_2]·(H_2 O)}_n(Ⅱ), have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions, based on 1 H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-3-amine(HL) along with 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid(H_2 BDC).

Polymer I features a two-dimensional 4-connected sql structure and further extends into a three-dimensional supramolecular framework directed by hydrogen-bonding interactions and π-π interactions. Polymer Ⅱ exhibits a layered packing supramolecular structure. Hydrogen bonding interactions involved between the free water molecules and carboxylate O atoms of H2 BDC ligands as well as the amino N atom of HL ligands play a critical role in constructing the three-dimensional supramolecular structure of Ⅱ. The solid-state photoluminescent properties of the two polymers were also investigated.

X-ray analysis shows that the asymmetric unit of the title compound contains two crystallographically unique Zn(Ⅱ) atoms which are connected through the bridging carboxylate oxygen atoms of the btec ligands and μ2-bridging oxygen atoms of water molecules to generate an infinite one-dimensional chain. The adjacent chains are linked together through the benzene rings of the btec ligands to form a two-dimensional polymeric network. The adjacent two-dimensional layers are further connected together by the benzene rings of btec ligands to give the final three-dimensional structure. The benzene rings act as pillars between two layers.

A new inorganic-organic hybrid cadmium(Ⅱ) complex [Cd2(H1/2C4BIm)2(CH3COO)]nhas been prepared by a hydrothermal reaction,and characterized by fluorescence,IR,TGA,and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.In its crystal structure,there are two kinds of coordinating forms for those Cd(Ⅱ) ions.One is that the Cd(Ⅱ) ion is coordinated by one carboxylate oxygen atom from one acetate oxygen ligand and three benzimidazole nitrogen atoms from three 2,2’-(1,4-butanediyl)bis(1H-benzimidazole)(H2C4BIm) ligands,and the other is that the Cd(Ⅱ) ion is coordinated by four benzimidazole nitrogen atoms from four H2C4 BIm ligands to furnish two distorted tetrahedral coordination geometries.It exhibits a beautiful structure for a 2D layer and a 3D network,with its four-connecting nodes provided by the H2C4 BIm ligands.Furthermore,this complex shows intense luminescent property at room temperature.In [Cd2(H2C2BIm)2(C9H6O4)2]n,the H2C2 BIm ligand lost the role as a bridging ligand because of the shorter alkyl chain compared with that of H2C4 BIm ligand.     

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Structural Characterization of Two Zinc Coordination Polymers of 1,2‐Di(4‐pyridyl)ethylene and Benzenedicarboxylate

Hydrothermal reactions of Zn(NO3)2•6H2O with 1,2-di(4-pyridyl)ethylene (dpe) and 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate (1,4-BDC) or 1,3-benzenedicarboxylate (1,3-BDC) in water gave rise to two new metal-organic coordination polymers, [Zn(1,4-BDC)(dpe)]n (1) and [Zn4O(1,3-BDC)3(dpe)]n (2). Both compounds were characterized by elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy, and their structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. 1 displays a rare 5-fold interpenetrating 66-diamondoid framework while 2 possesses an interlocked 3D network formed by inclined interpenetration of 2D (4,4) networks that are constructed by μ4-oxo tetrazinc Zn4O cores and the bridging dpe and 1,3-BDC ligands. Thermal and photoluminescent properties of 1 and 2 were also investigated.

In this work, we synthesized a new Cd(Ⅱ) coordination polymer, [Cd(L)(cmb)H_2O]· H_2O(1), by using mixed 2-(carboxymethoxy)benzoic acid(H2 cmb) and typical chelating N-donor ligands 2-(2-fluoro-6-fluorophenyl)-1 H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline ligand(L). 1 crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/c with a = 17.6150(8), b = 9.7811(4), c = 18.1603(8) ?, β = 118.9150(10)o, V = 2738.9(2) ?~3, Z = 4, C28 H20 CdF2 N4 O7, Mr = 674.88, Dc = 1.637 g/cm3, F(000) = 1352, μ(Mo Ka) = 0.865 mm–1, R = 0.0643 and w R = 0.1976. In 1, the cmb2– anions link neighboring Cd(Ⅱ) atoms in a bis-chelating mode, yielding a one-dimensional chain structure along the b axis. The L ligands are attached on one side of the chain through chelating the Cd(Ⅱ) atoms, and are stacked with those of an adjacent chain through π-π interactions to generate a one-dimensional double-chain structure. Furthermore, the one-dimensional double-chains are stacked by C–H???π interactions between the carbon atom of L ligand and the benzene ring of cmb2–ligand to give a layer structure. Moreover, the solid state luminescent property of 1 was also investigated at room temperature.

Each Cd(Ⅱ) atom is coordinated by one bpdc anion and two L ligands to give a discrete molecule. Neighboring discrete molecules are stacked by π-π interactions among L ligands, resulting in an interesting 1D supramolecular chain. Moreover, the 1D supramolecular chains are packed with each other to give a porous structure, in which an infinite channel is filled with water molecules. In addition, the thermal behavior and luminescent property of 1 have also been studied.     

Three New Zn(Ⅱ) Coordination Compounds Based on the in-situ Formed Tetrazolate Ligand: Syntheses,Crystal Structures and Luminescence Properties

Reactions of 2-(2-benzoimidazolyl)acetonitrile and Na N3 with Zn SO4 or Zn Cl2 in the presence of nicotinic acid in the mixture of Et OH/H2 O afforded a mononuclear compound [Zn(L1)2](1) and a 1-D polymer [Zn(L1)Cl]n(2), respectively(L1 = 5-[(benzoimidazolyl)methyl]-1H-tetrazolate). However, in the similar condition except that imidazole was added instead of nicotinic acid, the reaction afforded a 1-D compound [Zn(L1)2]n(3) featuring triply helical chains via the π-π stacking of ligands. They are characterized by elemental analysis and IR, and their structures have been determined by X-ray crystallography. Thermal stability of these compounds was measured by TGA and their luminescent properties were investigated at room temperature.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of 4-Salicylimine-3,5-bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazole

1 INTRODUCTION 1, 2, 4-Triazole and its derivatives have gained great attention as ligands to transition metals by the fact that they unite the coordination geometry of both pyrazoles and imidazoles, and in addition exhibit a strong and typical property of acting as bridging ligands between two metal centers. In this bridging capacity, the 1, 2, 4-triazole ligands show a great coordination diversity, especially when the triazole nucleus are substituted with additional donor groups[1]. In…

A Novel Two-dimensional Lead(Ⅱ) Coordination Polymer Based on Dinuclear Lead(Ⅱ) Unit Containing(5-Chloro-quinolin-8-yloxy) Acetate

A novel two-dimensional lead(II) coordination polymer 1, [C11H7Cl2NO3Pb]n, has been prepared by solvothermal reaction of new bridging ligand(5-chloro-quinolin-8-yloxy)acetic acid(HL) with PbCl2, and its structure was characterized by IR, elemental analysis, TG-DTA and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal is of monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a = 16.7603(7), b = 8.6907(4), c = 8.4745(3), β = 101.1110(11)°, C11H7Cl2NO3 Pb, Mr = 479.27, V = 1211.25(9)3, Z = 4, Dc = 2.628 g/cm3, F(000) = 880, μ = 14.367 mm-1, R = 0.0173 and wR = 0.0508. The asymmetric unit contains one lead(II) cation, one(5-chloro-quinolin-8-yloxy)acetate(L) ligand and a chloride ion. The PbII center is hepta-coordinated in a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal geometry. The coordination sphere of the Pb atom is completed by two oxygen atoms and one nitrogen atom of the same L ligand, two bridging chloride ions and two bridging oxygen atoms of two adjacent L ligands. Two PbII centers are linked by the two L ligands to form a C2-symmetric dimer unit with a planar [Pb2O2] ring. Each dimer unit acts as a secondary building unit(SBU) and links adjacent four dimer units by the chloride atoms and oxygen atoms of carboxylate groups of L, forming a two-dimensional array. Such two-dimensional layers are packed through intermolecular C–H···Cl hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional supramolecular structure. When the dimer unit is viewed as a 4-connected node, 1 is simplified as a 4-nodal 2-D network with square lattices of the diagonal lengths to be 6.079(1). The fluorescence emission peak of complex 1 appears near 407 nm.

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Cd(Ⅱ) and Ni(Ⅱ) Complexes Containing Flexible Sulfide and Nitrogen Heterocyclic Ligands

Two new coordination polymers [Cd(EBLA)(ip)(H2O)](1) and [Ni(EBSA)(im)2(H2O)]n(2) were synthesized by hydrothermal and solution methods using 2,2'-dithiosalicylicacid(EBSA), 1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline(ip), imidazole(im), Cd(NO3)2·4H2O and Ni(NO3)2·6H2O. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis and FT-IR.

Syntheses,Crystal Structures and Magnetic Properties of Two New Low-dimensional Manganese (Ⅱ) Coordination Compounds

Two new low-dimensional Mn(Ⅱ) coordination compounds of Mn(H_2pimdc)_2(phen)(compound 1) and [Mn(Hpimdc)(phen)]n·nH_2O(compound 2) were synthesized, where H_3pimdc is a 2-propyl-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid and phen is 1,10-phenanthroline. Both compounds were thoroughly analyzed by X-ray single-crystal diffraction, element analysis, IR spectra, PXRD and thermal analysis. X-ray single-crystal diffraction analyses indicate that the phen ligands terminate metal ions on two sides to prevent the linkage between the neighboring metal ions into a higher dimensional structure in compounds 1 and 2. Compound 1 is constructed from mononuclear molecules which form the 1D helical supramolecular chain by N–H···O hydrogen bonds. In compound 2, Hpimdc is a tetradentate bridging ligand, which binds Mn(Ⅱ) ions to generate a single-stranded right helical chain parallel to the b axis. These 1D chains are additionally coupled by H-bonds as well as π···π stacking interactions, which formed a 3D supramolecular structure. Additionally, compound 2 demonstrated temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility and negative value of θ(equal to –9.09 K), which is indicative of weak antiferromagnetic interactions between Mn(Ⅱ) ions.     

Construction of a Set of Cadmium（Ⅱ） Coordination Polymers with Atza and 2,2′-Bipy or 1,10-Phen Ligands （Atza=5-Aminotetrazole-1-acetato Anion）

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that each Cd(Ⅱ) ion has a distorted octahedral coordination geometry in 1-4, and the Cd(Ⅱ) ion centers are connected through the tridentate atza bridging ligands to form a 2D layer (1-3) or ID chain (4) structure. The fluorescent properties of 2 and 4 are also discussed.

Complex 1 crystallizes in orthorhombic system, Iba2 space group. The carboxylic acid ligands form a 2 D helical layer with Zn(Ⅱ) ions, and such layers are expanded into a 3 D network structure by the force of C–H×××π. Complex 2 crystallizes in monoclinic system, P2_1/n space group. Complex 2 shows a 3 D framework with two Cd(Ⅱ) ions as nodes of a dual-core unit, which can be considered to be 6-connected net and regarded as a rare(4~4,5~(10),7) topology network with self-interlacing. The structural diversities indicate that rigid and flexible imidazole ligands play dominating roles in modulating the formation of structures of these crystalline materials. Moreover, the luminescent properties of two complexes are investigated in solid state.
