Polymeric (3‐amino‐2‐chloropyridine)nitratosilver(I)

In the title compound {alternative name: poly­[silver(I)‐μ‐(3‐­amino‐2‐chloro­pyridine)‐μ‐nitr­ato]}, [Ag(NO₃)(C₅H₅ClN₂)]_n the Ag^I atom is in an irregular AgN₂O₃ geometry, surrounded by one pyridyl N atom [Ag—N 2.283 (5) Å], one amine N atom [Ag—N 2.364 (6) Å] and three O atoms from different nitrate ions [Ag—O 2.510 (6)–2.707 (6) Å]. The Ag ions are bridged by the 3‐amino‐2‐chloro­pyridine ligands into helical chains. Adjacent uniform chiral chains are further interlinked through the NO₃ bridges into an interesting two‐dimensional coordination network in the solid.     

Copper(II) bromide and copper(II) acetate complexes of 4,4′‐(p‐phenylene)bipyridazine

4,4′‐(p‐Phenylene)bipyridazine, C₁₄H₁₀N₄, (I), and the coordination compounds catena‐poly[[dibromidocopper(II)]‐μ‐4,4′‐(p‐phenylene)bipyridazine‐κ²N²:N^2′], [CuBr₂(C₁₄H₁₀N₄)]_n, (II), and catena‐poly[[[tetrakis(μ‐acetato‐κ²O:O′)dicopper(II)]‐μ‐4,4′‐(p‐phenylene)bipyridazine‐κ²N¹:N^1′] chloroform disolvate], {[Cu₂(C₂H₃O₂)₄(C₁₄H₁₀N₄)]·2CHCl₃}_n, (III), contain a new extended bitopic ligand. The combination of the p‐phenylene spacer and the electron‐deficient pyridazine rings precludes C—H...π interactions between the lengthy aromatic molecules, which could be suited for the synthesis of open‐framework coordination polymers. In (I), the molecules are situated across a center of inversion and display a set of very weak intermolecular C—H...N hydrogen bonds [3.399 (3) and 3.608 (2) Å]. In (II) and (III), the ligand molecules are situated across a center of inversion and act as N²,N^2′‐bidentate [in (II)] and N¹,N^1′‐bidentate [in (III)] long‐distance bridges between the metal ions, leading to the formation of coordination chains [Cu—N = 2.005 (3) Å in (II) and 2.199 (2) Å in (III)]. In (II), the copper ion lies on a center of inversion and adopts CuN₂Br₄ (4+2)‐coordination involving two long axial Cu—Br bonds [3.2421 (4) Å]. In (III), the copper ion has a tetragonal pyramidal CuO₄N environment. The uncoordinated pyridazine N atom and two acetate O atoms provide a multiple acceptor site for accommodation of a chloroform solvent molecule by trifurcated hydrogen bonding [C—H...O(N) = 3.298 (5)–3.541 (4) Å].     

Polymeric aqua­(μ4‐di­hydrogen benzene‐1,2,4,5‐tetra­carboxylato)(1,10‐phen­anthroline)cobalt(II)

In the title compound, poly[[aqua(1,10‐phenanthroline)­cobalt(II)]‐μ₄‐di­hydrogen benzene‐1,2,4,5‐tetra­carboxyl­ato], [Co(C₁₀H₄O₈)(C₁₂H₈N₂)(H₂O)]_n, each cobalt(II) cation has an octahedral geometry completed by one aqua O atom, three carboxy O atoms belonging to three H₂TCB²⁻ anions (H₂TCB²⁻ is di­hydrogen ­benzene‐1,2,4,5‐tetra­carboxyl­ate) and two N atoms from a 1,10‐phenanthroline mol­ecule. In the asymmetric unit, there are two half H₂TCB²⁻ anions lying about independent inversion centres. The bridging H₂TCB²⁻ anions have two coordination modes, viz.μ₂‐H₂TCB²⁻ and μ₄‐H₂TCB²⁻, resulting in a two‐dimensional coordination polymer. Furthermore, a three‐dimensional network is formed by O_carboxy⋯O_carboxy hydrogen‐bond interactions, with H⋯A distances in the range 1.69–1.82 Å, and O_carboxy⋯O_water interactions, with H⋯A distances in the range 1.91–1.94 Å.     

Constructing mixed‐metal coordination polymers from copper(II)–pyridinedicarboxylate metalloligands

In the mixed‐metal complex catena‐poly[bis[diaquasilver(I)] [bis[aquacopper(II)]‐μ₃‐pyridine‐2,5‐dicarboxylato‐2′:1:1′κ⁵N,O²:O⁵:O⁵,O^5′‐μ‐pyridine‐2,5‐dicarboxylato‐2:1κ⁴N,O²:O⁵,O^5′‐disilver(I)‐μ₃‐pyridine‐2,5‐dicarboxylato‐1:1′:2′′κ⁵O⁵,O^5′:O⁵:N,O²‐μ‐pyridine‐2,5‐dicarboxylato‐1′:2′′′κ⁴O⁵,O^5′:N,O²] hexahydrate], {[Ag(H₂O)₂][AgCu(C₇H₃NO₄)₂(H₂O)]·3H₂O}_n, a square‐pyramidal Cu^II center is coordinated by two N atoms and two O atoms from two pyridine‐2,5‐dicarboxylate (2,5‐pydc) ligands and a water molecule, forming a [Cu(2,5‐pydc)₂(H₂O)]²⁻ metalloligand. One Ag^I center is coordinated by five O atoms from three 2,5‐pydc ligands and, as a result, the [Cu(2,5‐pydc)₂(H₂O)]²⁻ metalloligands act as linkers in a unique μ₃‐mode connecting Ag^I centers into a one‐dimensional anionic double chain along the [101] direction. The other Ag^I center is coordinated by two water molecules, forming an [Ag(H₂O)₂]⁺ cation. Four adjacent Ag^I centers are associated by Ag...Ag interactions [3.126 (1) and 3.118 (1) Å], producing a Z‐shaped Ag₄ unit along the [010] direction and connecting the anionic chains into a two‐dimensional layer structure. This study offers information for engineering mixed‐metal complexes based on copper(II)–pyridinedicarboxylate metalloligands.     

μ‐Aqua‐penta­aqua­[μ‐3,6‐bis(6‐methyl‐2‐pyridyl)­pyridazine]­chloro­dinickel(II) trichloride trihydrate

The title compound, μ‐aqua‐1:2κ²O‐penta­aqua‐1κ²O,2κ³O‐μ‐3,6‐bis(6‐methyl‐2‐pyridyl)­pyridazine‐1κ²N¹,N⁶:2κ²N²,N³‐chloro‐1κCl‐dinickel(II) trichloride trihydrate, [Ni₂Cl(C₁₆H₁₄­N₄)(H₂O)₆]Cl₃·3H₂O, consists of two Ni^II atoms, a 3,6‐bis(6‐methyl‐2‐pyridyl)­pyridazine mol­ecule, four Cl atoms and nine water mol­ecules. The two Ni atoms are octahedrally coordinated by N and Cl atoms, and by water mol­ecules, and the three six‐membered rings, a pyridazine and two picolines, are planar to within 0.181 (3) Å. The crystal structure is stabilized by an intra‐ and intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding scheme involving water–water and water–chlorine interactions.     

catena‐Poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine)­silver(I)]‐μ‐nicotinato] and catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine)silver(I)]‐μ‐2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoato]

In catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine‐κ²N,N′)silver(I)]‐μ‐nico­tinato‐κ²N:O], [Ag(C₆H₄NO₂)(C₁₀H₉N₃)]_n, the Ag^I atom is tetracoordinated by two N atoms from the di‐2‐pyridyl­amine (BPA) ligand [Ag—N = 2.3785 (18) and 2.3298 (18) Å] and by one N atom and one carboxyl­ate O atom from nicotinate ligands [Ag—N = 2.2827 (15) Å and Ag—O = 2.3636 (14) Å]. Bridging by nicotinate N and O atoms generates a polymeric chain structure, which extends along [100]. The carboxyl O atom not bonded to the Ag atom takes part in an intrachain C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, further stabilizing the chain. Pairs of chains are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to generate ribbons. There are no π–π interactions in this complex. In catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine‐κ²N,N′)silver(I)]‐μ‐2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoato‐κ²O¹:O²], [Ag(C₇H₅O₄)(C₁₀H₉N₃)]_n, the Ag^I atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination, with three strong bonds to two pyridine N atoms from the BPA ligand [Ag—N = 2.286 (5) and 2.320 (5) Å] and to one carboxyl­ate O atom from the 2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoate ligand [Ag—O = 2.222 (4) Å]; the fourth, weaker, Ag‐atom coordination is to one of the phenol O atoms [Ag⋯O = 2.703 (4) Å] of an adjacent moiety, and this interaction generates a polymeric chain along [100]. Pairs of chains are linked about inversion centers by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form ribbons, within which there are π–π interactions. The ribbons are linked about inversion centers by pairs of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and additional π–π interactions between inversion‐related pairs of 2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoate ligands to generate a three‐dimensional network.     

A helical coordination polymer of zinc(II), 4‐hydroxybenzohydrazide and sulfate ions

In the structure of the novel zinc complex catena‐poly[[diaqua(4‐hydroxybenzohydrazide)zinc(II)]‐μ‐sulfato], [Zn(SO₄)(C₇H₈N₂O₂)(H₂O)₂]_n, the complex cations are linked by sulfate counter‐ions into helical polymeric chains extending along the b axis. Each helix is stabilized by six intrachain hydrogen bonds involving stronger O—H...O (1.83–2.06 Å) and weaker N—H...O (2.20–2.49 Å) interactions. The Zn^II atom displays a distorted octahedral geometry formed by the 4‐hydroxybenzohydrazide ligand, two water molecules and two SO₄²⁻ ions, which is very similar to the metal‐atom environment in a previously reported Co^II complex [Zasłona, Drożdżewski & Kubiak (2010). J. Mol. Struct. 982 , 1–8], especially the Zn—O and Zn—N bond lengths of 2.0453 (12)–2.1602 (9) and 2.1118 (12) Å, respectively.     

A three‐dimensional supramolecular framework of silver(I), 2‐phenylquinoline‐4‐carboxylate and 4,4′‐bipyridine

A novel supramolecular framework, catena‐poly[[[aqua(2‐phenylquinoline‐4‐carboxylato‐κO)silver(I)]‐μ‐4,4′‐bipyridine‐κ²N:N′] dihydrate], {[Ag(C₁₆H₁₀NO₂)(C₁₀H₈N₂)(H₂O)]·2H₂O}_n, has been synthesized and structurally characterized. The Ag^I centres are four‐coordinated and bridged by 4,4′‐bipyridine (4,4′‐bipy) ligands to form a one‐dimensional Ag–bipy chain. The Ag–bipy chains are further linked together by intermolecular O—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen‐bonding interactions between adjacent chains, resulting in a three‐dimensional framework.     

Poly­[[aqua­neodymium(III)]‐μ3‐decane‐1,10‐di­carboxyl­ato‐μ3‐9‐carboxy­nonane­carboxyl­ato]

The title compound, [Nd(C₁₀H₁₆O₄)(C₁₀H₁₇O₄)(H₂O)]_n, has a novel Nd–organic framework constructed from sebacic acid (C₁₀H₁₈O₄) linkers, the longest aliphatic ligand used to date in lanthanide metal–organic framework compounds. The structure contains edge‐shared chains of NdO₈(H₂O) tricapped trigonal prisms that propagate in the [100] direction, with Nd—O distances in the range 2.414 (4)–2.643 (4) Å.     

Three lanthanide complexes derived from itaconic acid and 2,2′‐bipyridine

The structures of three new polymeric lanthanide complexes, poly[[bis(2,2′‐bipyridine)‐μ₄‐itaconato‐di‐μ₃‐itaconato‐digadolinium(III)] tetrahydrate], {[Gd₂(C₅H₄O₄)₃(C₁₀H₈N₂)₂]·4H₂O}_n, (I), poly[diaqua(2,2′‐bipyridine)di‐μ₃‐itaconato‐μ₂‐itaconato‐digadolinium(III)], [Gd₂(C₅H₄O₄)₃(C₁₀H₈N₂)(H₂O)₂]_n, (II), and poly[[bis(2,2′‐bipyridine)‐μ₄‐itaconato‐di‐μ₃‐itaconato‐diholmium(III)] dihydrate], {[Ho₂(C₅H₄O₄)₃(C₁₀H₈N₂)₂]·2H₂O}_n, (III), have been solved from twinned specimens. Compound (I) presents a two‐dimensional polymeric structure parallel to (011) built up around two independent nine‐coordinated Gd centres displaying similar GdO₇N₂ environments, with both N‐donor atoms in each provided by a chelating 2,2′‐bipyridine (bpy) unit. The coordinating O atoms are from three different itaconate (ita) anions (itaconic acid is 2‐methylidenebutanedioic acid). Compound (II) also presents two independent Gd centres (one ten‐ and the other eight‐coordinated), but the overall formula and individual coordinations are different from those of (I). The chemical unit is in this case completed by one bpy ligand, three ita anions (one of them displaying a new, hitherto unreported, μ₃‐O,O′:O′,O′′:O′′′ binding mode) and two aqua ligands. The whole structure is built up around a twofold rotation axis passing through both cations, as well as through the centre of the bpy ligand and one of the ita anions, thus making only half of the chemical unit independent. Finally, compound (III) presents a single independent Ho centre, a bpy unit and one and a half ita anions (one of them bisected by a twofold rotation axis) in the asymmetric unit, plus two (disordered) nonbonded solvent water molecules. In compounds (II) and (III), those ita anions bisected by a symmetry element incompatible with the internal symmetry of the ligand exhibit disorder in the C=CH₂ group.     

An unprecedented three‐dimensional silver(I) cluster built up from pyrazine‐2,3‐dicarboxylate ligands

The title complex, poly[(μ‐3‐carboxypyrazine‐2‐carboxylato)(μ‐pyrazine‐2,3‐dicarboxylato)trisilver(I)], [Ag₃(C₆H₂N₂O₄)(C₆H₃N₂O₄)]_n or [Ag₃(pzdca)(Hpzdca)]_n (H₂pzdca is pyrazine‐2,3‐dicarboxylic acid), has a three‐dimensional structure. The carboxylate groups of the pzdca²⁻ and Hpzdca⁻ ligands adopt both bridging and chelating coordination modes. Although each Ag^I ion displays a tetrahedral coordination, the coordination environment of each Ag atom is very different, viz. AgN₃O, AgNO₃ and AgO₄.     

Poly­[disilver(I)‐μ8‐1,5‐naphthalene­disulfonato]

The title complex, poly­[disilver(I)‐μ₈‐1,5‐naphthalene­di­sulfon­ato‐3,4‐η:7,8‐η:κ⁶O:O′:O′′:O′′′:O′′′′:O′′′′′], [Ag₂(C₁₀H₆O₆S₂)]_n, exists as a three‐dimensional framework of Ag^I atoms connected by η¹⁰,μ₈‐1,5‐naphthalene­di­sulfonate ligands through both Ag–sulfonate and Ag–η²‐arene interactions. Each Ag^I atom exhibits a distorted tetrahedral geometry defined by three O atoms of independent sulfonate groups and one C=C bond of the naphthalene group.     

A helical zinc(II) coordination polymer assembled from 1,3‐bis[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methoxy]benzene and benzene‐1,4‐dicarboxylic acid

In catena‐poly[[aqua[1,3‐bis(pyridine‐3‐ylmethoxy)benzene‐κN]zinc(II)]‐μ₂‐benzene‐1,4‐dicarboxylato‐κ²O¹:O⁴], [Zn(C₈H₄O₄)(C₁₈H₁₆N₂O₂)(H₂O)]_n, each Zn^II centre is tetrahedrally coordinated by two O atoms of bridging carboxylate groups from two benzene‐1,4‐dicarboxylate anions (denoted L²⁻), one O atom from a water molecule and one N atom from a 1,3‐bis[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methoxy]benzene ligand (denoted bpmb). (Aqua)O—H...N hydrogen‐bonding interactions induce the formation of one‐dimensional helical [Zn(L)(bpmb)(H₂O)]_n chains which are interlinked through (aqua)O—H...O hydrogen‐bonding interactions, producing two‐dimensional corrugated sheets.     

A one‐dimensional silver(I) coordination polymer based on 5‐methyl‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐amine and pyridine‐2,3‐dicarboxylate

The bifunctional pyridine‐2,3‐dicarboxylic acid (H₂pdc) ligand has one N atom and four O atoms, which could bind more than one Ag^I centre with diverse binding modes. A novel infinite one‐dimensional Ag^I coordination polymer, namely catena‐poly[[silver(I)‐(μ₂‐pyridine‐2,3‐dicarboxylato‐κ²N :O ³)‐silver(I)‐tris(μ₂‐5‐methyl‐1,3,4‐thiodiazol‐2‐amine‐κ²N :N ′)] monohydrate ethanol monosolvate], {[Ag₂(C₇H₃NO₄)(C₃H₅N₃S)₃]·H₂O·C₂H₅OH}_n , has been synthesized using H₂pdc and 5‐methyl‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐amine (tda), and characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. One Ag^I atom is located in a four‐coordinated AgN₄ tetrahedral geometry and the other Ag^I atom is in a tetrahedral AgN₃O geometry. A dinuclear Ag^I cluster formed by three tda ligands with a paddelwheel configuration is bridged by the dianionic pdc²⁻ ligand into a one‐dimensional coordination polymer. Interchain N—H…O hydrogen bonds extend the one‐dimensional chains into an undulating two‐dimensional sheet. The sheets are further packed into a three‐dimensional supramolecular framework by interchain N—H…O hydrogen bonds.     

Poly[μ2‐(N‐hydroxypyridine‐2‐carboxamidine)‐μ2‐nitrato‐silver(I)]

In the title complex, [Ag(NO₃)(C₆H₇N₃O)]_n or [Ag(NO₃)(pyaoxH₂)] (pyaoxH₂ is N‐hydroxypyridine‐2‐carboxamidine), the Ag⁺ ion is bridged by the pyaoxH₂ ligands and nitrate anions, giving rise to a two‐dimensional molecular structure. Each pyaoxH₂ ligand coordinates to two Ag⁺ ions using its pyridyl and carboxamidine N atoms, and the OH and the NH₂ groups are uncoordinated. Each nitrate anion uses two O atoms to coordinate to two Ag⁺ ions. The Ag...Ag separation via the pyaoxH₂ bridge is 2.869 (1) Å, markedly shorter than that of 6.452 (1) Åvia the nitrate bridge. The two‐dimensional structure is fishscale‐like, and can be described as pyaoxH₂‐bridged Ag₂ nodes that are further linked by nitrate anions. Hydrogen bonding between the amidine groups and the nitrate O atoms connects adjacent layers into a three‐dimensional network.     

In situ single‐crystal to single‐crystal (SCSC) transformation of the one‐dimensional polymer catena‐poly[[diaqua(sulfato)copper(II)]‐μ2‐glycine] into the two‐dimensional polymer poly[μ2‐glycine‐μ4‐sulfato‐copper(II)]

The one‐dimensional coordination polymer catena‐poly[diaqua(sulfato‐κO)copper(II)]‐μ₂‐glycine‐κ²O:O′], [Cu(SO₄)(C₂H₅NO₂)(H₂O)₂]_n, (I), was synthesized by slow evaporation under vacuum of a saturated aqueous equimolar mixture of copper(II) sulfate and glycine. On heating the same blue crystal of this complex to 435 K in an oven, its aspect changed to a very pale blue and crystal structure analysis indicated that it had transformed into the two‐dimensional coordination polymer poly[(μ₂‐glycine‐κ²O:O′)(μ₄‐sulfato‐κ⁴O:O′:O′′:O′′)copper(II)], [Cu(SO₄)(C₂H₅NO₂)]_n, (II). In (I), the Cu^II cation has a pentacoordinate square‐pyramidal coordination environment. It is coordinated by two water molecules and two O atoms of bridging glycine carboxylate groups in the basal plane, and by a sulfate O atom in the apical position. In complex (II), the Cu^II cation has an octahedral coordination environment. It is coordinated by four sulfate O atoms, one of which bridges two Cu^II cations, and two O atoms of bridging glycine carboxylate groups. In the crystal structure of (I), the one‐dimensional polymers, extending along [001], are linked via N—H...O, O—H...O and bifurcated N—H...O,O hydrogen bonds, forming a three‐dimensional framework. In the crystal structure of (II), the two‐dimensional networks are linked via bifurcated N—H...O,O hydrogen bonds involving the sulfate O atoms, forming a three‐dimensional framework. In the crystal structures of both compounds, there are C—H...O hydrogen bonds present, which reinforce the three‐dimensional frameworks.

Two different zinc sulfite compounds have been prepared through the decomposition of pyrosulfite–­di­thionite ions in aqueous solution, viz. a dimeric complex, di‐μ‐sulfito‐κ³O,O′:O′′;κ³O:O′,O′′‐bis­[(4,4′‐di­methyl‐2,2′‐bi­pyridine‐κ²N,N′)­zinc(II)] dihydrate, [Zn₂(SO₃)₂(C₁₂H₁₂N₂)₂]·2H₂O, (I), which was solved and refined from a twinned sample, and an extended polymer, poly­[[aqua(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ²N,N′)­zinc(II)]‐μ₃‐sulfito‐κ²O:O′:O′′‐zinc(II)‐μ₃‐sulfito‐κ³O:O:O′], [Zn₂(SO₃)₂(C₁₂H₁₀N₂)(H₂O)]_n, (II). In (I), the dinuclear Zn^II complex has a center of symmetry. The cation is five‐coordinate in a square‐pyramidal arrangement, the anion fulfilling a bridging chelating role. Compound (II) comprises two different zinc units, one being five‐coordinate (square pyramidal) and the other four‐coordinate (trigonal pyramidal), and two independent sulfite groups with different binding modes to the cationic centers.     

Poly[aquaneodymium(III)‐μ5‐2‐oxido‐5‐sulfonatobenzoato]

Organic‐inorganic Hybrid Lanthanide‐Silver Heterometallic Coordination Frameworks Constructed from Oxalate and Sulfate Anion: Syntheses,Structures, and Photoluminescent Properties

The first four examples of organic‐inorganic hybrid lanthanide‐silver heterometallic frameworks, namely, [AgLn(μ₅‐C₂O₄)(SO₄)(H₂O)₂] [Ln = Eu ( 1 ) and Sm ( 2 )] and [AgLn(μ₄‐C₂O₄)_0.5(μ₆‐C₂O₄)_0.5(SO₄)(H₂O)] [Ln = Tb ( 3 ) and Dy ( 4 )] based on oxalate and sulfate anions were synthesized by hydrothermal reactions of lanthanide oxide, silver nitrate, oxalic acid and sulfuric acid. All structures contain ladder‐like inorganic lanthanide sulfato chains, which are further connected together through silver atoms by oxalate anions with different coordination behavior (μ₅‐C₂O₄: 1 and 2 , μ₆‐C₂O₄ mixed μ₄‐C₂O₄: 3 and 4 ) to generate two types of 3D networks. The luminescent properties of these compounds were also studied.
