Synthesis, structures and luminescent properties of Co(II) and Ni(II) metal-organic frameworks with semirigid diphthalic ligands

A series of transition metal coordination polymers [Co(H₃L)₂(4,4′- bpy)(H₂O)₂]_n?n(4,4′-bpy) (1), [Ni(H₂L)(4,4′-bpy)(H₂O)₂]_n (2), [Co₂(L)(phen)₂(H₂O)₄]_n?(H₂O)_2n (3), and [Ni₂(L)(phen)₂(H₂O)₄]_n?(H₂O)_2n (4) have been assembled from a semirigid multicarboxylate ligand 3,3′-(1,4-phenylenebis(oxy))diphthalic acid (H₄L) with the help of 4,4′-bipyridine (4,4′-bpy) ligand or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligand. X-ray single crystal diffraction analysis reveals that complex 1 crystallizes in the space group of P − 1 and displays a one-dimensional (1D) chain structure constructed from 4,4′-bpy ligand and H₃L ligand, which was further interlinked to form a three-dimensional network via hydrogen bonds. In complex 2, Ni(II) atoms are coordinated by L ligand in monodentate fashion to form alternate left- and right-helices, which are further bridged together by the coordination interactions between Ni(II) atoms and 4,4′-bpy, leading to a 2-fold (4, 4)-connected interpenetrating network. Isostructural complexes 3 and 4 belong to the space group P − 1 and display a 1D chain structure constructed from phen and L ligands, which was further interlinked to form a 2D plane via π–π interactions. In addition, their thermal and luminescent properties were also investigated.     

Self-assembly of 1-D, 2-D,and 3-D transition-metal coordination polymers based on a T-shaped tripodal ligand 4-(4,5-dicarboxy-1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine 1-oxide

Three coordination polymers, {[Co(C₁₀H₅N₃O₅)(H₂O)₂]·H₂O}_n (1), {[Mn₃(C₁₀H₅N₃O₅)₂Cl₂(H₂O)₆]·2H₂O}_n (2), and {[Cu₃(C₁₀H₄N₃O₅)₂(H₂O)₃]·4H₂O}_n (3), based on a T-shaped tripodal ligand 4-(4,5-dicarboxy-1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine 1-oxide (H₃DCImPyO), were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The polymers showed diverse coordination modes, being characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. In 1, the HDCImPyO^2? generated a 1-D chain by adopting a μ₂-kN, O : kN′, O′ coordination mode to bridge two Co(II) ions in two bis-N,O-chelating modes. In 2, the HDCImPyO^2? adopted a μ₃-kN, O : kO′, O′′ : O′′′ coordination mode to bridge two crystallographically independent Mn(II) ions, forming a 2-D hcb network with {6³} topology. In 3, by adopting μ₄-kN, O : kO′, O′′ : kN′′, O′′′ : O′′′′ coordination, DCImPyO^3? bridged three crystallographically independent Cu(II) ions to form a 3-D framework having the stb topology.     

Four Metal Complexes Based on Bulky Imidazole Ligands: Solvothermal Syntheses,Crystal Structures,and Fluorescence Properties

In order to explore the influences of (de‐)protonation of the imidazole ring on the structural diversity of the resulting complexes, the imidazole‐based ligands 4, 5‐diphenylimidazole (Hdpi) and 1H‐phenanthro[9, 10‐d]imidazole (Hpi) were utilized as bulky building blocks to construct four complexes by solvothermal reactions, i.e. [Ag(Hdpi)₂](NO₃) · (H₂O) ( 1 ), [Cu(dpi)]_∞ ( 2 ), [Cu(Hpi)(NO₃)]_∞ ( 3 ), and [(H₂pi)(NO₃)] · H₂O ( 4 ). In complex 1 , two Hdpi ligands adopt a monodentate pattern and coordinate with one Ag^I ion to form a mononuclear unit, which is further connected by hydrogen bonds into a 1D supramolecular helix. The deprotonated dpi ligand of 2 acts in bidentate mode, and bridges Cu^I ions to afford a 1D chain. In 3 , the NO₃^– ion, acts as a monodentate bridging ligand and joins Cu^I ions to generate a 1D chain. The Hpi ligand employs a monodentate mode to bond with Cu^I ions of the 1D chain. 4 is protonated and two H₂pi nitrogen atoms are free of coordination. Interestingly, hydrogen bonds among the NO₃^– ion, the H₂pi ligand, and the water molecule yield a macro ring R⁴₄(14). The resulting structural diversity reveals that the (de‐)protonation of imidazole ring directly steers the coordination number of ligand, and thus causes a significant effect on the structure, especially the dimensionality. Furthermore, the solid‐state fluorescence properties of the free ligands and compounds 1 – 4 were studied at room temperature.     

Metal–organic supramolecular architectures derived from a new zwitterionic dicarboxylate ligand

A series of new coordination compounds with 1-carboxymethylpyridinium-4-benzoate (L) and transition metal ions have been synthesized. They are formulated as [M(L)₂(H₂O)₄]?·?4H₂O M=Mn (1) and Co (2), {[M(L)₂]?·?xH₂O} _n M=Mn, x?=?1 (3); M=Co, x?=?2 (4), and M=Cu, x?=?3 (5). In 1 and 2, the zwitterionic dicarboxylate ligand is monodentate through only one carboxylate to generate mononuclear molecules. The molecules are assembled through O–H?···?O interactions to give 3-D pillared layer-like architectures, in which interesting 1-D tape-like hydrogen bonding motifs are connected into 2-D layers via carboxylate-mediated hydrogen bonds. In 3–5, the organic ligands serve as bridges with one carboxylate monodentate and the other chelating, and the metal ions are linked by double bridges to give 1-D polymeric chains, which are zigzag (3) or stair-like (4 and 5) due to the cis or trans coordination geometry around metal ions. The chains are further stabilized and associated into 3-D architectures through intra- and interchain hydrogen bonding and/or π–π stacking interactions.     

Synthesis,Characterization and Spectral Studies of Triethanolamine Complexes of Metal Saccharinates. Crystal Structures of [Co(TEA)2](SAC)2 AND [Cu2(μ-TEA)2(SAC)2]·2(CH3OH)

The novel transition metal saccharinate complexes of triethanolamine (TEA) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, magnetic moments, UV-Vis and IR spectra. Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) form mononuclear complexes of [M(TEA)₂](SAC)₂, where SAC is the saccharinate ion, while the Cu(II) complex is dimeric. The TEA ligand acts as a tridentate N,O,O'-donor ligand and one ethanol group is not involved in coordination. The SAC ion does not coordinate to the metal ions and is present as the counter-ion in the Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) complexes, but coordinates to the Cu(II) ion as a monodentate ligand. The crystal structures of the [Co(TEA)₂](SAC)₂ and [Cu₂(μ-TEA)₂(SAC)₂]·2(CH₃OH) complexes were determined by single crystal x-ray diffraction. The Co(II) ion has a distorted octahedral coordination by two TEA ligands. The Cu(II) complex crystallizes as a dimethanol solvate and has doubly alkoxo-bridged centrosymmetric dimeric molecules involving two tridentate triethanolaminate (deprotonated TEA) and two monodentate SAC ligands. The geometry of each Cu(II) ion is a distorted square pyramid. Both crystal structures are stabilized by hydrogen bonds to form a three-dimensional network.

Complex 2 is a 1-D chain with tridentate H₂butca^2? coordinating to two Zn(II) ions through monodentate and chelating carboxylates. Complex 3 is a 1-D double-chain coordination polymer. H₂chhca^4? is octadentate coordinating to four Cd(II) ions through four chelating carboxylates. Hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions play important roles in the formation of supramolecular architectures. The thermal stabilities of 1–3 show dehydrated coordination polymers are thermally stable in the range 260–400°C.

Single crystal X-ray diffraction showed that 1 is in keto form and connected by hydrogen bonds to form a two-dimensional supermolecular compound. Complexes 2 and 4 have the same structure with distorted meridional octahedral geometry with 1 as a tridentate ligand with keto-form coordination by azomethine, carboxyl O and acyl O. In 3, ligand 1 bridges two Cd(II) atoms by μ ₂-O of carboxyl. H-bonding is an important weak interaction for constructing supermolecular frameworks. There are π–π interactions between bipy or phen rings in 3 or 4, respectively.
