Both complexes were characterized by X-ray crystallography. Crystal data for complex 1： monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 11.9214（10）, b = 23.5828（17）, c = 14.0387（12）A, β = 135.219（4）°, C22H30Cl2CoN8O9, Mr = 680.37, V = 2780.1（4） A^3 ,Z = 4, Dc = 1.625 g/cm^3,μ（MoKa） = 0.876 mm^-1, F（000） = 1404, the final R = 0.0725 and wR = 0.1530 for 5726 observed reflections （I 〉 2σ（I））. Crystal data for complex 2： monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 18.2162（16）, b = 10.0610（6）, c = 18.593（2）A, β = 130.099（3）°, C22H30CoN10O7, Mr = 605.49, V = 2606.5（4） A3 Z = 4, Dc = 1.543 g/cm^3,μ（MoKa） = 0.722 mm^-1, F（000） = 1260, the final R = 0.0619 and wR = 0.1429 for 5194 observed reflections （I 〉 2σ（I））. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that each cobalt atom in the two complexes is chelated by six nitrogen atoms from two tridentate iigands L, exhibiting a slightly distorted octahedral coordination sphere. In both complexes, the strong hydrogen-bonding interactions between the lattice waters and N-H groups of the ligands result in 1D chains which are further connected by ClO4^- （or NO3^-） groups to form a 3D framework. In complex 2, the strong π-π interactions increase the stability of the structure.     

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Polyoxometalate- based Complex [Cu^I（phen）2]4（SiW12O40）

A new hybrid polyoxometalate-based complex, [Cu^I（phen）214（SiW12O40） （phen = 1,10-phenanthroline）, has been synthesized by hydrothermal method and characterized with the aid of elemental analysis, IR, UV spectra and thermal analysis studies. The result of X-ray crystallography analysis exhibits that the title compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121, and the formula is C96H64N16Cu4SiW12O40. Crystal data： a = 18.3574（14）, b = 21.1952（16）, c = 27.992（2）A, Mr = 4570.08, V = 10891.4（14）A^3, Z = 4, Dc = 2.787 g/cm^3,μ = 13.478 mm^-1, R = 0.0364, wR = 0.0638 （I 〉 2σ（I）） and F（000） = 8360. The complex consists of one α-Keggin anion [SIW12O40]^4- and four discrete [Cu^I（phen）2]^＋ cations. The valence sum calculations for the Cu atoms suggest that all four Cu atoms are in the ＋1 oxidation state.     

Two New 1D Coordination Polymers Constructed from {M（H2O）（dpa）}^2＋ Subunits Bridged through [MoO4]^2- Anions （M = Copper,Cobalt and dpa = 2,2＇-Dipyridylamine）

Two new one-dimensional chain-like coordination polymers,[Cu（H2O）（dpa）- MoO4]·H2O 1 and [Co（H2O）（dpa）MoO4] 2,have been synthesized under hydrothermal reactions. Their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Crystal data for 1： [Cu（H2O）（dpa）MoO4]·H2O,Mr = 430.71,monoclinic,space group P21/c,a = 9.5469（10）,b = 16.6874（17）,c = 9.0799（10）A,β = 104.9100（10）°,V = 1397.8（3）A^3,Z = 4,Dc = 2.047 g/cm^3,F（000） = 852,μ = 2.449 mm-1,the final R = 0.0293 and wR = 0.0638 for 2472 independent reflections （Rint = 0.0338） and 2034 observed reflections with I 〉 2σ（I）. Crystal data for 2： [Co- （H2O）（dpa）MoO4],Mr = 408.09,monoclinic,space group P21/c,a = 10.204（2）,b = 18.933（4）,c = 6.8875（16）A,β = 102.195（3）o,Z = 4,V = 1300.5（5）A^3,Z = 4,Dc = 2.084 g/cm3,F（000） = 804,μ = 2.262 mm-1,the final R = 0.0357 and wR = 0.0693 for 3022 independent reflections （Rint = 0.0436） and 2286 observed reflections （I 〉 2σ（I））. Polymer 1 is based on a one-dimensional zigzag chain built up from {Cu（H2O）（dpa）}2＋ units bridged through the bidentate {MoO4}2- ligands. The chains extending along the c-axis are arranged alternately with two opposite orientations along the b-axis. The adjacent chains are stably packed together through π-π interactions and exhibit an interesting three-dimensional supramolecular architecture via hydrogen bonding interactions. Polymer 2 based on a one-dimensional zonal chain is built up from {Co（H2O）（dpa）}2＋ units linked by the tridentate {MoO4}2- ligands. The ribbons extend along the c-axis. In the bc layers,there are significant interactions of N-H…O-Mo hydrogen bonds and π-π overlaps of dpa ligands between adjacent ribbons.
