Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a New Zn(Ⅱ) Coordination Polymer Constructed by 1,2,4,5-Benzenetetracarboxylate

A new Zn(Ⅱ) coordination polymer [Zn3(btec)(OH)2(H2O)2]n (1, btec = 1,2,4,5- benzenetetracarboxylate) has been synthesized by hydrothermal reaction and its structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The title compound crystallizes in mono- clinic, space group C2/c, with a = 19.580(3), b = 5.0137(8), c = 15.975(3), β = 121.629(2)°, V = 1335.3(4)3, C10H8O12Zn3, Mr = 516.27, Z = 4, Dc = 2.568g/cm3, μ = 5.419 mm-1, F(000) = 1016, R = 0.0590 and Rw = 0.1279 for 1110 observed reflections (I > 2σ(I)). X-ray analysis shows that the asymmetric unit of the title compound contains two crystallographically unique Zn(Ⅱ) atoms which are connected through the bridging carboxylate oxygen atoms of the btec ligands and μ2-bridging oxygen atoms of water molecules to generate an infinite one-dimensional chain. The adjacent chains are linked together through the benzene rings of the btec ligands to form a two-dimensional polymeric network. The adjacent two-dimensional layers are further connected together by the benzene rings of btec ligands to give the final three-dimensional structure. The benzene rings act as pillars between two layers.     

Synthesisand Crystal Structure of a Cu（II） Complex with Reduced Schiff-base N-（2-Hydroxybenzyl）-D,L-alanine and 4,4＇-Bipyridine

A new complex [Cu2(sala)2(H2O)2(4,4'-bipy)]·H2O (sala = N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)- D,L-alaninate, 4,4'-bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in monoclinic system, space group C2/c with a = 42.44(3), b = 10.416(8), c = 15.487(13), β = 97.455(14)o, C30H36Cu2N4O9, Mr = 723.71, V = 6789(9)3, Dc = 1.416 g/cm3, Z = 8, F(000) = 2992, μ(MoKα) = 1.308 mm-1, R = 0.0493 and wR = 0.1004 for 4878 observed reflections (I > 2σ(I)). Structural analysis shows that each copper(II) atom displays a distorted square-based pyramidal coordination geometry with two oxygen atoms and one nitrogen atom from one N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-D,L-alaninate, one nitrogen atom from 4,4'-bipyridine ligand and one water molecule. 4,4'-Bipyridine ligand bridges two Cu(II) ions to form a dinuclear compound. The molecular structure is extended into a one-dimensional wavy chain through hydrogen bonds. These 1D chains are further expanded into 2D networks through hydrogen bonds.
