A Highly Selective and Sensitive Barium(II)‐Selective PVC Membrane Based on Dimethyl 1‐Acetyl‐8‐oxo‐2,8‐dihydro‐ 1H‐pyra‐zolo[5,1‐a]isoindole‐2,3‐dicarboxylate

A poly(vinyl chloride)‐based membrane of dimethyl 1‐acetyl‐8‐oxo‐2,8‐dihydro‐1H‐pyra‐zolo[5,1‐a]isoindole‐2,3‐dicarboxylate as a neutral carrier with sodium tetraphenylborate (NaTPB) as an anion excluder and 2‐nitrophenyl octyl ether (NPOE) as plasticizer was prepared and investigated as a Ba(II)‐selective electrode. The electrode exhibits a Nernstian slope of 29.7±0.4 mV per decade over a wide concentration range (1.0×10^?6 to 1.0×10^?1 M) with a detection limit of 7.6×10^?7 M between pH 3.0 and 11.0. The response time of the sensor is about 10 s and it can be used over a period of 2 months without any divergence in potential. The proposed membrane sensor revealed good selectivity for Ba(II) over a wide variety of other metal ions. It was successfully used in direct determination of barium ions in industrial wastewater samples.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of anhydrous copper suberate: [Cu<Subscript>2</Subscript>(OOC-(CH<Subscript>2</Subscript>)<Subscript>6</Subscript> -COO)<Subscript>2</Subscript>]

The title compound [Cu₂(OOC-(CH₂)₆-COO)₂] was synthesized and its crystal structure has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1 with a=5.1077(5) ?, b=8.362(2) ?, c=11.378(2) ?, α=93.773(6)°, β=97.587(9)°, γ=90.493(’9)° and D _cal=1.629 mg/m³ for Z=1.  The structure is polymeric and consists of discrete anhydrous centrosymmetric binuclear units [Cu₂(OOC-(CH₂)₆-COO)₂]. The two copper(II) centres bridged by the suberate groups in a syn-syn conformation, are in pentacoordinated distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment, with an intramolecular Cu–Cu distance of 2.5793(10) ?. Each binuclear unit, related to the next through μ_oxo bridges with a Cuμ_oxo–Cuμ_oxo separation of 3.2326(10)?, defines infinite chains of one-edge sharing CuO₅ square pyramid.     

Single-Layer 2D Ni−BDC MOF Obtained in Supercritical CO2-Assisted Aqueous Solution

The development of an efficient strategy for fabricating two-dimensional metal-organic framework (MOF) nanosheets with high yield and high stability is desirable. Herein, we demonstrate for the first time that large, single-layer 2D nickel-benzene dicarboxylate (Ni−BDC) MOF nanosheets can be fabricated with the assistance of supercritical (SC) CO₂ in a pure aqueous system. Detailed experimental evidence reveals that the SC CO₂ molecule can exchange with the lattice-coordinated H₂O molecules, side-on coordinate with the metal Ni¹ sites on the Ni−BDC surface, and finally break the interlayer hydrogen bond to exfoliate the bulk Ni−BDC into a 2D MOF. More importantly, a thin SC CO₂ layer building up at the water−Ni−BDC interfaces can transform the pristine hydrophilic interface into a super-hydrophobic one. This super-hydrophobic layer at the water-MOF interface can effectively prevent dissociation, thus promoting the stability of Ni−BDC in aqueous system.

Three coordination polymers, namely, {[Cu₂(HMOPhIDC)(4,4′-bipy)]}_n (H₃MOPhIDC = 2-(3-methoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid) (1), [Co(HDMOPhIDC)(phen)]_n (H₃DMOPhIDC = 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid) (2) and [Ni₂(HDMOPhIDC)₂(H₂O)₄]_n (3) have been prepared under hydrothermal condition and characterised by elemental analyses, infrared spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Each of the polymers 1–3 is a 1D column-like structure and displays a 3D supramolecular network via the π…π stacking or hydrogen bond interactions. Furthermore, fluorescence and UV–vis spectroscopic properties of the polymers have been studied.

Synthesis of C1-Substituted 7-Oxanorbornadienes

7-Oxanorbornadienes are valuable synthetic intermediates as they can serve as general templates to create highly substituted ring systems. However, to date, only very few C1-substituted 7-oxanorbornadienes have been synthesized and can be found in the literature. In this article, synthesis of some C1-substituted 7-oxanorbornadienes was achieved by the Diels–Alder reaction between 2-substituted furans and dimethylacetylene dicarboxylate. Moderate to good yields (13–85%) of the Diels–Alder reactions were observed. These C1-substituted 7-oxanorbornadienes will find applications as valuable synthetic intermediates and are useful in the studies of transition-metal-catalyzed reactions.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structures and Fluorescent Properties of Two 2,2′‐Biquinoline‐4,4′‐dicarboxylate‐based Cadmium(II) and Cobalt(II) Complexes

Two metal‐organic coordination polymers with one‐dimensional infinite chain motif, [Cd(bqdc)(phen)₂]_n ( 1 ) and [Co(bqdc)(phen)(H₂O)₂]_n ( 2 ) (H₂bqdc = 2,2′‐biquinoline‐4,4′‐dicarboxylic acid, phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline), have been synthesized under similar solv/hydrothermal conditions and fully structural characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and single‐crystal X‐ray crystallography. Their thermal stability and photoluminescence properties were further investigated by TG‐DTA and fluorescence spectra. In both complexes, the adjacent metal ions (Cd^II for 1 and Co^II for 2 ) are linked together by dicarboxylate groups of bqdc dianions in chelating bidentate and monodentate modes, respectively, generating a zigzag chain for 1 and linear chain for 2 . The relatively higher thermal stability up to 324 °C for 1 and strong fluorescence emissions jointly suggest that they are good candidates for luminescent materials.     

Syntheses,structures and characterization of isomorphous CoII and NiII coordination polymers based on 2‐[(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)methyl]‐6‐methyl‐1H‐benzimidazole and benzene‐1,4‐dicarboxylate

Careful choice of the organic ligands is one of the most important parameters in the rational design and synthesis of coordination polymers. Aromatic polycarboxylates have been widely used in the preparation of metal–organic polymers since they can utilize various coordination modes to form diverse structures and can act as hydrogen‐bond acceptors and donors in the assembly of supramolecular structures. Nitrogen‐heterocyclic organic compounds have also been used extensively as ligands for the construction of polymers with interesting structures. In the polymers catena‐poly[[[diaquabis{2‐[(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)methyl]‐6‐methyl‐1H‐benzimidazole‐κN ³}cobalt(II)]‐μ₂‐benzene‐1,4‐dicarboxylato‐κ²O ¹:O ⁴] dihydrate], {[Co(C₈H₄O₄)(C₁₂H₁₁N₄)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O}_n , (I), and catena‐poly[[[diaquabis{2‐[(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)methyl]‐6‐methyl‐1H‐benzimidazole‐κN ³}nickel(II)]‐μ₂‐benzene‐1,4‐dicarboxylato‐κ²O ¹:O ⁴] dihydrate], {[Ni(C₈H₄O₄)(C₁₂H₁₁N₄)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O}_n , (II), the Co^II or Ni^II ion lies on an inversion centre and exhibits a slightly distorted octahedral coordination geometry, coordinated by two N atoms from two imidazole rings and four O atoms from two monodentate carboxylate groups and two water molecules. The dicarboxylate ligands bridge metal ions forming a polymeric chain. The 2‐[(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)methyl]‐6‐methyl‐1H‐benzimidazole ligands coordinate to the Co^II or Ni^II centres in monodentate modes through an imidazole N atom and are pendant on opposite sides of the main chain. The two structures are isomorphous. In the crystal, the one‐dimensional chains are further connected through O—H…O, O—H…N and N—H…O hydrogen bonds, leading to a three‐dimensional supramolecular architecture. In addition, the IR spectroscopic properties, PXRD patterns, thermogravimetric behaviours and fluorescence properties of both polymers have been investigated.
