The formulas of these complexes are [Cd(pbm)(odc)2](1), [Co(pbm)(odc)2](2), [Cu(pbm)(odc)2](3) and [Zn(pbm)(odc)2](4) confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, which shows that complexes 1, 2 and 4 belong to monoclinic system with space group P21/n, while complex 3 belongs to monoclinic system with space group P21/c.

A novel three-dimensional Zn(Ⅱ) coordination polymer, Zn3(C2H2N3)4(SiF6), has been synthesized under solvothermal conditions using 1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylic acid and zinc fluoride as the starting materials. The complex has been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, TG analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The complex crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group with a=11.592(0), c=7.526(1), V=1011.3(2)3 , Z=2, Mr=610.46, Dc=2.005 g/cm3 and F(000)=596. The final R=0.0312 and wR=0.067 for 319 observed reflections with I>2σ(I). In the title complex, the Zn centers are interconnected by μ 3 -bridging triazole ligands to form a microporous three-dimensional metal-organic framework.     

Hydrothermal Synthesis,Crystal Structure,Thermal Stability and Photophysical Property of a Novel Zinc Complex with Mixed Ligands

A novel metal-organic coordination complex [Zn(CHIP)(AIC)]n(1, CHIP = 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline, AIC = 5-amino-isophthalic acid) has been synthesized by hydrothermal reactions and characterized by elemental analysis, thermogravimetric(TG) analysis, infrared spectrum(IR) and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 crystallizes in monoclinic, space group C2/c with a = 18.259(5), b = 17.191(4), c = 16.371(4) A, V = 4717(2) A3,C27H-116 ClN 5O4Zn, Mr = 575.29, Dc = 1.620 g/cm3, μ(Mo Kα) = 1.202 mm, F(000) = 2335, Z = 8, the final R = 0.032 and w R = 0.074 for 4723 observed reflections(I 2σ(I)). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that 1 exhibits one-dimensional(1D) double chains, which are linked by H-bond intersections into a 2D structure. TG analysis shows clear weight loss due to the decomposition of different ligands. The luminescent properties for the ligand and complex 1 were also studied.
