Poly[diaquabis(μ‐4,4′‐bipyridine‐κ2N:N′)bis(ethane‐1,2‐diol)di‐μ‐sulfato‐dicopper(II)]

The title compound, [Cu₂(SO₄)₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)₂(C₂H₆O₂)₂(H₂O)₂]_n, contains two crystallographically unique Cu^II centres, each lying on a twofold axis and having a slightly distorted octahedral environment. One Cu^II centre is coordinated by two bridging 4,4′‐bipyridine (4,4′‐bipy) ligands, two sulfate anions and two aqua ligands. The second is surrounded by two 4,4′‐bipy N atoms and four O atoms, two from bridging sulfate anions and two from ethane‐1,2‐diol ligands. The sulfate anion bridges adjacent Cu^II centres, leading to the formation of linear ...Cu1–Cu2–Cu1–Cu2... chains. Adjacent chains are further bridged by 4,4′‐bipy ligands, which are also located on the twofold axis, resulting in a two‐dimensional layered polymer. In the crystal structure, extensive O—H...O hydrogen‐bonding interactions between water molecules, ethane‐1,2‐diol molecules and sulfate anions lead to the formation of a three‐dimensional supramolecular network structure.

The title compound, [Cu₂(C₉H₁₀NO₃)₂(NO₃)₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)(H₂O)₂]_n, contains Cu^II atoms and l ‐tyrosinate (l ‐tyr) and 4,4′‐bipyridine (4,4′‐bipy) ligands in a 2:2:1 ratio. Each Cu atom is coordinated by one amino N atom and two carboxylate O atoms from two l ‐tyr ligands, one N atom from a 4,4′‐bipy ligand, a monodentate nitrate ion and a water molecule in an elongated octahedral geometry. Adjacent Cu atoms are bridged by the bidentate carboxylate groups into a chain. These chains are further linked by the bridging 4,4′‐bipy ligands, forming an undulated chiral two‐dimensional sheet. O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds connect the sheets in the [100] direction. This study offers useful information for the engineering of chiral coordination polymers with amino acids and 4,4′‐bipy ligands by considering the ratios of the metal ion and organic components.

A threefold interpenetrated two‐dimensional zinc(II) supramolecular architecture based on 3‐nitrobenzoic acid and 4,4′‐bipyridine

With regard to crystal engineering, building block or modular assembly methodologies have shown great success in the design and construction of metal–organic coordination polymers. The critical factor for the construction of coordination polymers is the rational choice of the organic building blocks and the metal centre. The reaction of Zn(OAc)₂·2H₂O (OAc is acetate) with 3‐nitrobenzoic acid (HNBA) and 4,4′‐bipyridine (4,4′‐bipy) under hydrothermal conditions produced a two‐dimensional zinc(II) supramolecular architecture, catena‐poly[[bis(3‐nitrobenzoato‐κ²O,O′)zinc(II)]‐μ‐4,4′‐bipyridine‐κ²N:N′], [Zn(C₇H₄NO₄)₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)]_n or [Zn(NBA)₂(4,4′‐bipy)]_n, which was characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. The Zn^II ions are connected by the 4,4′‐bipy ligands to form a one‐dimensional zigzag chain and the chains are decorated with anionic NBA ligands which interact further through aromatic π–π stacking interactions, expanding the structure into a threefold interpenetrated two‐dimensional supramolecular architecture. The solid‐state fluorescence analysis indicates a slight blue shift compared with pure 4,4′‐bipyridine and HNBA.     

μ‐4,4′‐Bipyridine‐κ2N:N′‐bis[triaqua(4,4′‐bipyridine‐κN)cadmium(II)] bis(3‐aminobenzoate) bis(perchlorate) dihydrate: a novel supramolecular system constructed by π–π and hydrogen‐bonding interactions

The title dicadmium compound, [Cd₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)₅(H₂O)₆](C₇H₆NO₂)₂(ClO₄)₂·2H₂O, is located around an inversion centre. Each Cd^II centre is coordinated by three N atoms from three different 4,4′‐bipyridine ligands and three O atoms from three coordinating water molecules in a distorted octahedral coordination environment. In the dicadmium cation unit, one 4,4′‐bipyridine (4,4′‐bipy) molecule acts as a bidentate bridging ligand between two Cd metal ions, while the other four 4,4′‐bipy molecules act only as monodentate terminal ligands, resulting in a rare `H‐type' [Cd₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)₅(H₂O)₆] host unit. These host units are connected to each other viaπ–π stacking interactions, giving rise to a three‐dimensional supramolecular grid network with large cavities. The 3‐aminobenzoate anions, perchlorate anions and water molecules are encapsulated in the cavities by numerous hydrogen‐bonding interactions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of a coordination compound based on both 4,4′‐bipyridine ligands together with discrete 3‐aminobenzoate anions.     

A zinc(II) metal–organic framework with a novel topology formed from 4,4′,4′′‐nitrilotribenzoate and 4,4′‐bipyridine ligands

A metal–organic framework with a novel topology, poly[sesqui(μ₂‐4,4′‐bipyridine)bis(dimethylformamide)bis(μ₄‐4,4′,4′′‐nitrilotribenzoato)trizinc(II)], [Zn₃(C₂₁H₁₂NO₆)₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)_1.5(C₃H₇NO)₂]_n, was obtained by the solvothermal method using 4,4′,4′′‐nitrilotribenzoic acid and 4,4′‐bipyridine (bipy). The structure, determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis, possesses three kinds of crystallographically independent Zn^II cations, as well as binuclear Zn₂(COO)₄(bipy)₂ paddle‐wheel clusters, and can be reduced to a novel topology of a (3,3,6)‐connected 3‐nodal net, with the Schläfli symbol {5.6²}₄{5².6}₄{5⁸.8⁷} according to the topological analysis.     

(4,4′‐Bipyridine)mercury(II) Coordination Polymers,Syntheses, and Structures

Mercury(II) complexes with 4,4′‐bipyridine (4,4′‐bipy) ligand were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, and IR, ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR spectroscopy. The structures of the complexes [Hg₃(4,4′‐bipy)₂(CH₃COO)₂(SCN)₄]_n ( 1 ), [Hg₅(4,4′‐bipy)₅(SCN)₁₀]_n ( 2 ), [Hg₂(4,4′‐bipy)₂(CH₃COO)₂]_n(ClO₄)_2n ( 3 ), and [Hg(4,4′‐bipy)I₂]_n ( 4 ) were determined by X‐ray crystallography. The single‐crystal X‐ray data show that 2 and 4 are one‐dimensional zigzag polymers with four‐coordinate Hg‐atoms, whereas 1 is a one‐dimensional helical chain with two four‐coordinate and one six‐coordinate Hg‐atom. Complex 3 is a two‐dimensional polymer with a five‐coordinate Hg‐atom. These results show the capacity of the Hg‐ion to act as a soft acid that is capable to form compounds with coordination numbers four, five, and six and consequently to produce different forms of coordination polymers, containing one‐ and two‐dimensional networks.     

Poly[diaqua­(μ‐4,4′‐bipyridine)tetra­kis­(μ‐ferro­cenecarboxyl­ato)bis­(ferro­cenecarboxyl­ato)­tri­man­ganese(II)]

The title compound, [Mn₃Fe₆(C₅H₅)₆(C₆H₄O₂)₆(C₁₀H₈N₂)(H₂O)₂]_n, consists of two crystallographically unique Mn^II centers. One is situated on an inversion center and is octa­hedrally coordinated by two N atoms from two bridging 4,4′‐bipyridine (4,4′‐bipy) ligands and four O atoms, two from different bridging ferrocenecarboxyl­ate (μ₂‐FcCOO⁻; Fc is ferrocene) units and two from aqua ligands. The two halves of each 4,4′‐bipy ligand are related by a center of symmetry. The second Mn^II center is in a strongly distorted tetra­gonal–pyramidal geometry, coordinated by five O atoms, three from three μ₂‐FcCOO⁻ units and two from a fourth, chelating, η²‐FcCOO⁻ unit. The FcCOO⁻ units function as bridging ligands to adjacent Mn^II centers, leading to the formation of linear ⋯Mn1Mn2Mn2Mn1⋯ chains. Adjacent chains are further bridged by 4,4′‐bipy ligands, resulting in a two‐dimensional layered polymer.     

Solvothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structures of Two Manganese Complexes [Mn(II)(acac−)2(4,4′‐bipy)]n (bipy=4,4′‐bipyridine) and [Mn(III)(acac−)3]·4CO(NH2)2

Two special manganese complexes [Mn(II)(acac^?)₂(4,4′‐bipy)]_n (bipy=4,4′‐bipyridine) (complex 1 ) and [Mn(III)(acac^?)₃]·4CO(NH₂)₂ (acacH=acetylacetone) (complex 2 ) were synthesized in the same strategy by solvothermal method. Single crystal X‐ray diffraction revealed the complex 1 consists of one‐dimensional infinite coordination chain, with the manganese centers bridged by 4,4′‐bipy. And free carbamides of complex 2 connect with each other through the hydrogen bonds to form a 14‐membered carbamide ring and a zig‐zag plane. Both enantiomers of Mn(III)(acac^?)₃ exist in the structure, forming a racemate. Furthermore, these enantiomers and those zig‐zag planes are linked with hydrogen bonds to form an unique spatial network.     

Selective Endo and Exo Binding of Mono‐ and Ditopic Ligands to a Rhomboidal Diporphyrin Prism

Copper(I) can preferentially form heteroleptic complexes containing two phosphine and two nitrogen donors due to steric factors. This preference was employed to direct the self‐assembly of a porphyrin‐faced rhomboidal prism having two parallel tetrakis(4‐iminopyridyl)porphyrinatozinc(II) faces linked by eight 1,4‐bis(diphenylphosphino)benzene pillars. The coordination preferences of the Cu^I ions and geometries of the ligands come together to generate a slipped‐cofacial orientation of the porphyrinatozinc(II) faces. This orientation enables selective encapsulation of 3,3′‐bipyridine (bipy), which bridges the Zn^II ions of the parallel porphyrins, whereas 4,4′‐bipy exhibits weaker external coordination to the porphyrin faces. Reaction with 2,2′‐bipy, by contrast, results in the displacement of the tetratopic porphyrin ligand and formation of [{(2,2′‐bipy)Cu^I}₂(diphosphine)₂]. The differing strengths of interactions of bipyridine isomers with the system allows for a hierarchy to be deciphered, whereby 4,4′‐bipy may be displaced by 3,3′‐bipy, which in turn is displaced by 2,2′‐bipy.
