A New Two‐Dimensional Manganese(II) Coordination Polymer Constructed from Trinuclear Molecular Building Block: Syntheses,Structure and Magnetic Property

A new manganese(II) coordination polymer, [Mn₃(atpt)₃(2, 2′‐bpy)₂]_n ( 1 ) (H₂atpt = 2‐aminoterephthalic acid; 2, 2′‐bpy = 2, 2′‐bipyridine), was synthesized by hydrothermal reaction of Mn(OAc)₂, H₂atpt, and 2, 2′‐bpy.

To further explore the coordination possibilities of the flexible tripodal ligand, 4,4′,4′′‐(benzene‐1,3,5‐triyl‐tris(oxy))tribenzoic acid (H₃BTTB), two solvent‐controlled three‐dimensional (3D) manganese(II) coordination polymers, [Mn₃(BTTB)₂(H₂O)₄](H₂O)₂ ( 1 ) and [Mn₃(BTTB)₂(DMF)₂](DMF)₂ ( 2 ), were synthesized and characterized. Single crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis indicates that in the Mn^II complexes the BTTB ligands exhibit two coordination modes, which have not been reported previously. Complexes 1 and 2 involve different one‐dimensional (1D) rod‐shaped metal–carboxylate secondary building units (SBUs). The 1D SBUs are further extended to afford two different three‐dimensional (3D) frameworks with similar flu topology via linkage of the BTTB ligands. The results demonstrate that the reaction solvent as well as conformation and coordination mode of BTTB ligands play key roles on the formation of the final framework structures. Additionally, their luminescent properties were investigated.

Two supramolecular architectures, [Mn(3‐bpd)₂(NCS)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O ( 1 ) and {[Mn(bpe)(NCS)₂(H₂O)₂]·(3‐bpd)·(bpe)·H₂O}_n ( 2 ) [bpe = 1,2‐bis(4‐pyridyl)ethylene and 3‐bpd = 1,4‐bis(3‐pyridyl)‐2,3‐diaza‐1,3‐butadiene] have been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic, elemental and single crystal X‐ray diffraction analyses. Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2₁/c, with chemical formula C₂₆H₂₈Mn N₁₀O₄S₂, a = 9.1360(6), b = 9.7490(6), c = 17.776(1) Å, β = 93.212(1)°, and Z = 2 while compound 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group P2₁2₁2₁, with chemical formula C₃₈H₃₆Mn₁N₁₀O₃S₂, a = 14.1902(6), b = 15.4569(7), c = 18.2838(8) Å, α = β = γ = 90°, and Z = 4. Structural determination reveals that the coordination geometry at Mn(II) in compound 1 or 2 is a distorted octahedral which consists of two nitrogen donors of two NCS^?ligands, two oxygen donors of two water molecules, and two nitrogen donors of two 3‐bpd ligands for 1 and two dpe ligands for 2 , respectively. The two 3‐bpd ligands in 1 adopt a monodentate binding mode and the dpe in 2 adopts a bismonodentate bridging mode to connect the Mn(II) ions forming a 1D chain‐like coordination polymer. Both the π‐π stacking interactions between the coordinated and the free pyridyl‐based ligands and intermolecular hydrogen bonds among the coordinated and the crystallized water molecules and the free pyridyl‐based ligands play an important role in construction of these 3D supramolecular architectures.

Synthesis and Crystal Structures of Manganese(II) and ­Cobalt(II) Complexes with 2, 6‐Dimethoxybenzoic Acid and Additional N‐Donor Ligands

Three coordination compounds [Mn₃(dmb)₆(H₂O)₄(4, 4′‐bpy)₃(EtOH)]_n ( 1 ) and [M(dmb)₂(pyz)₂ (H₂O)₂] [M^II = Co ( 2 ), Mn ( 3 )] (Hdmb = 2, 6‐dimethoxybenzoic acid, 4, 4′‐bpy = 4, 4′‐bipyridine, pyz = pyrazine) were synthesized and characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. Compound 1 consists of infinite 1D polymeric chains, in which the metal entities are bridged by 4, 4′‐bpy ligands. There are four crystallographically independent Mn^II atoms in the linear chain with different coordination modes, which is only scarcely reported for linear polymers. The isostructural crystals of 2 and 3 are composed of neutral mononuclear complexes. In crystal the complexes are combined into chains by intermolecular O–H ··· N hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions between antiparallel pyrazine molecules.     

A candidate for a single‐chain magnet: [Mn3(OAc)6(py)2(H2O)2]n (OAc is acetate and py is pyridine)

The title complex, catena‐poly[di‐μ₃‐acetato‐κ⁶O:O:O′‐tetra‐μ₂‐acetato‐κ⁴O:O;κ⁴O:O′‐diaquabis(pyridine‐κN)trimanganese(II)], [Mn₃(CH₃COO)₆(C₆H₅N)₂(H₂O)₂]_n, is a true one‐dimensional coordination polymer, in which the Mn^II centres form a zigzag chain along [010]. The asymmetric unit contains two metal centres, one of which (Mn1) lies on an inversion centre, while the other (Mn2) is placed close to an inversion centre on a general position. Since all the acetates behave as bridging ligands, although with different μ₂‐ and μ₃‐coordination modes, a one‐dimensional polymeric structure is formed, based on trinuclear repeat units (Mn1...Mn2...Mn2′), in which the Mn2 and Mn2′ sites are related by an inversion centre. Within this monomeric block, the metal–metal separations are Mn1...Mn2 = 3.36180 (18) Å and Mn2...Mn2′ = 4.4804 (3) Å. Cation Mn1, located on an inversion centre, displays an [MnO₆] coordination sphere, while Mn2, on a general position, has a slightly stronger [MnO₅N] ligand field, as the sixth coordination site is occupied by a pyridine molecule. Both centres approximate an octahedral ligand field. The chains are parallel in the crystal structure and interact via hydrogen bonds involving coordinated water molecules. However, the shortest metal–metal separation between two chains [5.3752 (3) Å] is large compared with the intrachain interactions. These structural features are compatible with a single‐chain magnet behaviour, as confirmed by preliminary magnetic studies.

X‐ray single‐crystal diffraction analyses show that complex 1 has a two‐dimensional (2D) (4,4) structure, whereas complex 2 consits of a three‐dimensional (3D) (4,5)‐connected topology framework. The results indicate that the steric bulk of the fluorene ring in H₂ L plays an important role in the formations of 1 and 2 . Additional pyridine‐based ligands govern the formation of the final frameworks of 2 . Moreover, the luminescent properties of these complexes were briefly investigated.

High‐nuclearity metal clusters have received considerable attention not only because of their diverse architectures and topologies, but also because of their potential applications as functional materials in many fields. To explore new types of clusters and their potential applications, a new nickel(II) cluster‐based mixed‐cation coordination polymer, namely poly[hexakis[μ₄‐(2‐carboxylatophenyl)sulfanido]di‐μ₃‐chlorido‐tri‐μ₂‐hydroxido‐octanickel(II)sodium(I)], [Ni₈NaCl₂(OH)₃(C₇H₄O₂S)₆]_n, 1 , was synthesized using nickel chloride hexahydrate and mercaptobenzoic acid (H₂mba) as starting reactants under hydrothermal conditions. The material was characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction (SCXRD), Fourier transform IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X‐ray diffraction and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. SCXRD shows that 1 consists of a hexanuclear nickel(II) [Ni₆] cluster, dinuclear Ni^II nodes and a mononuclear Na^I node, resulting in the formation of a complex covalent three‐dimensional network. In addition, a tightly packed NiO/C&S nanocomposite is fabricated by sintering the coordination precursor at 400 °C. The uniform nanocomposite consists of NiO nanoparticles, incompletely carbonized carbon and incompletely vulcanized sulfur. When used as a supercapacitor electrode, the synthesized composite shows an extra‐long cycling stability (>5000 cycles) during the charge/discharge process.
