X-ray analysis reveals that two Cu(Ⅱ) atoms are bridged by two dicyanamides to form a centrosymmetric Cu(Ⅱ)-Cu(Ⅱ) dinuclear entity. Every Cu(Ⅱ) ion is five-coordinated with a distorted square pyramidal coordination geometry and IM-1′-MeBzIm ligand coordinates to the metal ion with the κ2 N(1′-MeBzIm), O(IM) mode to avoid steric hindrance with the methyl group in the complex.

The molecule is planar due to the presence of a strong intramolecular hydrogen bond between O–H group of phenol and N atom of imidazole. H2pbmCl2(1) molecules are arranged into a one-dimensional linear chain through intermolecular hydrogen bonds(N–H···O and C–H···Cl). The crystal of complex 2(C32H27Cl4MnN6O4, Mr = 756.34) belongs to the monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a = 19.043(10), b = 10.808(5), c = 18.704(11), = 115.540(6)o, V = 3473(3) 3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.446 g/cm3, S = 1.3, μ = 0.733 mm-1, F(000) = 1544, the final R = 0.1219 and wR = 0.2681 for 7811 independent reflections. The Mn ion adopts a distorted octahedral geometry coordinated by two deprotonated H2pbmCl2 ligands and two DMF molecules. The [MnIII(HpbmCl2)(pbmCl2)(DMF)2] molecules are arranged into a three-dimensional structure through hydrogen bonds(N–H···N, C–H···N and C–H···Cl) and weak π···πinteractions. The activity measurements suggest that complex 2 is able to serve as a catalyst for H2O2 disproportionation reaction to form O2 in neutral water solution.     

Hydrothermal Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Photoluminescent Property of a Zinc（II） Complex with 2,2′-Diphenic Acid and 2,2′-Bipyridine Ligands

A new dinuclear complex [Zn(dpa)(bipy)(H2O)]2 (dpa = 2,2'-diphenic acid, bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine) 1 has been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR, fluorescence spectrum and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/c with a = 10.960(2), b = 9.4841(18), c = 20.599(4), β = 104.452(3)o, V = 2073.4(7)3, C48H36N4O10Zn2, Mr = 959.55, Dc = 1.537 g/cm3, μ(MoKα) = 1.225 mm-1, F(000) = 984, Z = 2, the final R = 0.0364 and wR = 0.0843 for 2788 observed reflections (I > 2σ(I)). In the crystal structure, the zinc atom is five-coordinated with two carboxylate oxygen atoms from different dpas, one coordinated water molecule and two nitrogen atoms from bipy ligands, showing a slightly distorted triangular bipyramidal geometry. Furthermore, it exhibits a zero-dimensional network structure with a sixteen-membered ring and shows yellow photoluminescent property at room temperature.
