A new two‐dimensional CdII coordination polymer based on 2‐(1H‐imidazol‐1‐ylmethyl)‐6‐methyl‐1H‐benzimidazole and benzene‐1,2‐dicarboxylate: synthesis,crystal structure and characterization

In the construction of coordination polymers, many factors can influence the formation of the final architectures, such as the nature of the metal centres, the organic ligands and the counter‐anions. In the coordination polymer poly[aqua(μ‐benzene‐1,2‐dicarboxylato‐κ⁴O ¹,O ^1′:O ²,O ^2′)[μ‐2‐(1H‐imidazol‐1‐ylmethyl)‐6‐methyl‐1H‐benzimidazole‐κ²N ²:N ³]cadmium(II)], [Cd(C₁₂H₁₂N₄)(C₈H₄O₄)(H₂O)]_n or [Cd(immb)(1,2‐bdic)(H₂O)]_n , each Cd^II ion is seven‐coordinated by two N atoms from two symmetry‐related 2‐(1H‐imidazol‐1‐ylmethyl)‐6‐methyl‐1H‐benzimidazole (immb) ligands, by four O atoms from two symmetry‐related benzene‐1,2‐dicarboxylate (1,2‐bdic²⁻) ligands and by one water molecule, leading to a CdN₂O₅ distorted pentagonal bipyramidal coordination environment. The immb and 1,2‐bdic²⁻ ligands bridge Cd^II ions and form a two‐dimensional network structure. O—H…O and N—H…O hydrogen bonds stabilize the structure. In addition, the IR spectroscopic properties, PXRD patterns, thermogravimetric behaviour and fluorescence properties of the title polymer have been investigated.     

A new one‐dimensional CuII complex with a three‐dimensional supramolecular architecture incorporating benzene‐1,3‐dicarboxylate and 1‐[(1H‐benzotriazol‐1‐yl)methyl]‐1H‐imidazole

Subtle modifications of N‐donor ligands can result in complexes with very different compositions and architectures. In the complex catena‐poly[[bis{1‐[(1H‐benzotriazol‐1‐yl)methyl]‐1H‐imidazole‐κN ³}copper(II)]‐μ‐benzene‐1,3‐dicarboxylato‐κ³O ¹,O ^1′:O ³], {[Cu(C₈H₄O₄)(C₁₀H₉N₅)₂(H₂O)]·2H₂O}_n , each Cu^II ion is six‐coordinated by two N atoms from two crystallographically independent 1‐[(1H‐benzotriazol‐1‐yl)methyl]‐1H‐imidazole (bmi) ligands, by three O atoms from two symmetry‐related benzene‐1,3‐dicarboxylate (bdic²⁻) ligands and by one water molecule, leading to a distorted CuN₂O₄ octahedral coordination environment. The Cu^II ions are connected by bridging bdic²⁻ anions to generate a one‐dimensional chain. The bmi ligands coordinate to the Cu^II ions in monodentate modes and are pendant on opposite sides of the main chain. In the crystal, the chains are linked by O—H…O and O—H…N hydrogen bonds, as well as by π–π interactions, into a three‐dimensional network. A thermogravimetric analysis was carried out and the fluorescence behaviour of the complex was also investigated.     

Construction of Four Coordination Polymers based on 2‐[4‐(Pyridine‐4‐yl)phenyl]‐1H‐imidazole‐4,5‐dicarboxylic Acid

The imidazole‐based dicarboxylate ligand 2‐(4‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)phenyl)‐1H‐imidazole‐4,5‐dicarboxylic acid (H₃PyPhIDC), was synthesized and its coordination chemistry was studied. Solvothermal reactions of Ca^II, Mn^II, Co^II, and Ni^II ions with H₃PyPhIDC produced four coordination polymers, [Ca(μ₃‐HPyPhIDC)(H₂O)₂]_n ( 1 ), {[M₃(μ₂‐H₂PyPhIDC)₂(μ₃‐HPyPhIDC)₂₆(H₂O)₂] · 6H₂O}_n [M = Mn ( 2 ), Co ( 3 )], and {[Ni(μ₃‐HPyPhIDC)(H₂O)] · H₂O}_n ( 4 ). Compounds 1 – 4 were analyzed by IR spectroscopy, elemental analyses, and single‐crystal and powder X‐ray diffraction. Compound 1 displays a one‐dimensional (1D) infinite chain. Compounds 2 and 3 are of similar structure, showing 2D network structures with a (4,4) topology based on trinuclear clusters. Compound 4 has another type of 2D network structure with a 3‐connected (4.8²) topology. The results revealed that the structural diversity is attributed to the coordination numbers and geometries of metal ions as well as the coordination modes and conformations of H₃PyPhIDC. Moreover, the thermogravimetric analyses of all the compounds as well as luminescence properties of the H₃PyPhIDC ligand and compound 1 were also studied.

By employing 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid (p-MOPhH₃IDC) to react with Cd(II), Zn(II) and Sr(II) ions, four polymers, [Cd(p-MOPhHIDC)(2,2′-bipy)]_n (2,2′-bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine) (1), [Zn_0.5(p-MOPhH₂IDC)·H₂O]_n (2), {[Cd₄(p-MOPhHIDC)₄(C₂H₅OH)₂(H₂O)₂]·4C₂H₅OH·2H₂O}_n (3) and {[Sr₂(H₂MOPhIDC)₂(C₈H₄O₄)(H₂O)₆]·6H₂O}_n (4) have been solvothermally synthesised and structurally characterised by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Polymer 1 is a chain with 2,2′-bipy appending in the same side. Polymer 2 is a 2D rhombus grid structure. The π?π interactions between the aromatic groups supply the additional stabilisation for the solid-state structures of 1 and 2. Polymer 3 shows a 3D framework bearing 1D open channels. Polymer 4 exhibits a 2D latticed plane. The thermal and photoluminescence properties of 1–4 have been investigated as well.

By hydrothermal reactions of a newly designed ligand, 2-(p-tert-butylphenyl)-1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid (H₃BuPhIDC) with Cd(II) or Zn(II), three metal-organic frameworks, [Cd(μ₃-HBuPhIDC)(H₂O)]·2H₂O (1), [Cd(μ₃-HBuPhIDC)(4,4′-bipy)_0.5] (4,4′-bipy = 4,4′-bipyridine) (2), and [Zn₂(μ₃-HBuPhIDC)₂(CH₃OH)₂] (3), have been obtained and characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Compared with 1, 4,4′-bipy participates in the construction of a 3-D structure of 2. Polymer 3 shows an interesting 3-D open architecture, which contains infinite 1-D octagonal channels built by left- and right-handed helical chains. Thermal and solid-state photoluminescence properties of the polymers have been investigated.     

Two manganese(II) complexes constructed from 2-(3-pyridyl)-imidazo[4,5-f] 1,10-phenanthroline and organic dicarboxylates: syntheses,crystal structures,and luminescence

In this study, two new Mn(II) complexes consisting of a phenanthroline derivative and organic acid ligands, [Mn(3-PIP)(1,3-bdc)] _n (1) and [Mn(3-PIP)₂(1,4-bdc)] _n (2) (3-PIP?=?2-(3-pyridyl)-imidazo[4,5-f]?1,10-phenanthroline, 1,3-H₂bdc?=?benzene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid, 1,4-H₂bdc?=?benzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid), have been synthesized via hydrothermal reaction and characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, elemental analyses, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 is a one-dimensional (1-D) twisted double chain bridged by 1,3-bdc. The 3-PIP ligands in a parallel fashion are alternately attached to both sides of the 1-D double chain. Complex 2 exhibits a 1-D zigzag chain, to which pairs of crossed 3-PIP ligands are alternately attached. The two complexes are further extended into three-dimensional (3-D) supramolecular structures by hydrogen-bonding and π–π stacking interactions. The N-donor ligands with an extended π-system play a crucial role in formation and stabilization of the final supramolecular frameworks. Thermal properties of 1 and 2 and fluorescence of 2 are investigated in the solid state.     

Five novel transition metal coordination polymers with 2D/3D framework structure based on flexible H2tzda and ancillary ligand bpe

Five new transition metal coordination polymers based on H₂tzda and co-ligand bpe, {[M(tzda)(bpe)]·H₂O}_n [M=Zn(1), Cd(2), Mn(3), Co(4)] and [Ni₂(tzda)₂(bpe)₂(H₂O)]_n (5) [H₂tzda=(1,3,4-thiadiazole-2,5-diyldithio)diacetic acid, bpe=1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane], have been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. Compounds 1-4 feature a 2D-layered architecture generated from [M(tzda)]_n moiety with double-chain structure cross-linking bpe spacers. However, the conformations bpe adopts in 3 and 4 are different from those in 1 and 2 due to the rotation of C-C single bond in bpe. Polymer 5 exhibits an interesting 3D porous framework with 2-fold interpenetration, in which intriguing 1D double helix chains are observed. The photoluminescence properties of 1 and 2 in the solid-state at room temperature are investigated. In addition, variable-temperature magnetic data show weak antiferromagnetic behavior in 3-5.

Complex 1 shows a 2D (4,4) network constructing of Cd₂‐glu and Cd‐ L chains. Complex 2 presents a 2‐fold interpenetrating 3D framework with pcu topology. Complex 3 is a 3D framework with cds topology. Three complexes with versatile structures were obtained by changing aliphatic dicarboxylate ligands with different lengths based on a N‐rich ligand. Moreover, the fluorescence measurements indicate that complex 1 is a good multifunctional chemosensor for the detection of Cr₂O₇^2? and MnO₄^? anions by fluorescence quenching effect, and ethylenediamine by fluorescence enhancement effect, with detection limits of 1.196 ppm, 0.551 ppm and 64.572 ppm, respectively. Both complexes 2 and 3 can selectively sense Cr₂O₇^2? anion with detection limits of 1.126 ppm for 2 and 0.831 ppm for 3 by a fluorescence quenching effect.
