Two lead coordination polymers with nitrilotriacetic acid and oxydiacetic acid: synthesis,characterization, and crystal structure

Two lead coordination compounds [Pb₂(nta)]NO₃ (1) and [Pb(oda)] (2) have been synthesized by slow evaporation or hydrothermal conditions using nitrilotriacetic acid (nta) and 2,2′-oxydiacetic acid (oda) as ligands, respectively. Their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and further characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, infrared absorption spectrum, and thermogravimetric analysis. Compound 1 is a 2-D honeycomb-like layer structure with (6,3) topology. When the bonding limit of Pb–O extends from 2.76 to 2.90 Å, potential weak Pb–O bonds can be found in 1, and the 2-D layer structure can be further linked to generate a 3-D 4-connected supramolecular sra net with the (4².6³.8) Schläfli symbol. Compound 2 contains a 1-D infinite Pb–O chain which is connected through µ₃-, µ₄-, and µ₅-coordination modes of oda to form a new 3-D structure.     

Zinc(II) and lead(II) coordination polymers built by 3-(4-carboxyphenylhydrazono)pentane-2,4-dione

Two coordination polymers [Zn(L)₂(4,4′-bipy)₂] _n (4,4′-bipy = 4,4′-bipyridine) (1) and [Pb(η ²-L)(µ₃-η ²-CH₃COO)(H₂O)] _n (2) have been prepared by the reaction of 3-(4-carboxyphenylhydrazono)pentane-2,4-diketone (HL) with zinc(II) or lead(II) in solution. Polymer 1 shows an infinite zigzag chain, in which Zn(II) are linked by 4,4′-bipy bridges with carboxylate of L^? monodentate to Zn(II). In 2, Pb(II) are bridged by tetradentate µ₃-η ²-CH₃COO^? to form a linear 1-D chain, and each Pb(II) is chelated by carboxylate of L^?. Their molecular structures have been characterized by elemental analysis, infrared, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Thermal and fluorescent properties of the two complexes have been investigated.     

1-D and 2-D coordination polymers of lead(II) thiocyanate with substituted 2,2′-bipyridine ligand

Two lead(II)-thiocyanato coordination polymers with 5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine (5,5′-dm-2,2′-bpy) and 4,4′-dimethoxy-2,2′-bipyridine (4,4′-dmo-2,2′-bpy) as chelating ligands were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and ¹H-NMR spectroscopy, thermal behavior, and X-ray crystallography. These complexes have formulas [Pb(5,5′-dm-2,2′-bpy)(NCS)₂] _n (1) and [Pb(4,4′-dmo-2,2′-bpy)(NCS)₂] _n (2). The coordination numbers of Pb^II in 1 and 2 are four, PbN₄, with “stereo-chemically active” electron pairs and hemidirected coordination spheres. Considering Pb···S as weak bonds, 1 and 2 are 1- and 2-D coordination polymers, respectively. The supramolecular features in these complexes are guided/controlled by weak directional intermolecular interactions.     

Sonochemical synthesis and structural characterization of a nano-structure Pb(II) benzentricarboxylate coordination polymer: new precursor to pure phase nanoparticles of Pb(II) oxide

Microcrystals of a new Pb(II) coordination polymer, [Pb₂(1,3,5-HBTC)₂(H₂O)₄] · H₂O (1) (1,3,5-H₃BTC = 1,3,5-benzentricarboxylic acid), was synthesized by a sonochemical method. The structure was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, elemental analyses, and IR spectroscopy. Thermal stability was studied by thermal gravimetric and differential thermal analyses. After the calcination of nanosized 1 at 400°C, pure phase nanosized Pb(II) oxide has been produced.     

Bis(3-cyano-pentane-2,4-dionato) Co(II) as a linear building block for coordination polymers: combinations with two polypyridines

Two types of bis(β-diketonato) Co(II) complexes, [Co(CNacac)₂] (CNacac?=?3-cyano-pentane-2,4-dionato), and [Co(dbm)₂] (dbm?=?dibenzoylmethanato or 1,3-diphenyl-propane-1,3-dionato) were examined as linear building blocks for the construction of coordination polymers in combination with two oligopyridines, 1,4-bis(4,2’:6’,4”-terpyridin-4’-yl)benzene (L1) and 1,3-bis(3,2’:6’,3”-terpyridin-4’-yl)benzene) (L2). From combinations of [Co(CNacac)₂] with L1 and L2, 2-D coordination polymers, [Co(CNacac)₂]₂(L1)·(CHCl₃)·(CH₃OH) (CoCN-1) and [Co(CNacac)₂](L2)_1/2·(tetrachloroethane)_3/2 (CoCN-2), are obtained. Both CoCN-1 and CoCN-2 have 2D (4,4) net structures, in which L1 and L2 are tetradentate. In contrast, combination of [Co(dbm)₂] with L2 affords a 1-D coordination polymer, [Co(dbm)₂](L2)·4(CH₃OH) (Codbm-1), in which L2 is bidentate. L2 as a tetradentate ligand was inhibited by bulky phenyl rings in [Co(dbm)₂]. These results indicate that [Co(CNacac)₂] with a relatively simplified structure is useful as a linear building block in combinations with bulky oligopyridines.     

Synthesis,Structures, Magnetic and Luminescent Properties of a Series of Iron(II) and Zinc(II) Coordination Frameworks with Versatile 4‐Substitued 1, 2,4‐Triazole Ligands

Three multi‐dentate 1, 2,4‐triazole derivative ligands containing different 4‐substituted groups, namely N‐1, 2,4‐triazol‐4‐yl(pyridin‐3‐yl)methylenimine (L₁), N‐1, 2,4‐triazol‐ 4‐yl(pyridin‐4‐yl)methylenimine (L₂), and 4‐(2‐pyridine)‐1, 2,4‐triazole (L₃) were used to isolate five iron(II) and zinc(II) coordination frameworks, [Zn(μ₂‐L₁)Cl₂] ( 1 ), [Zn(μ₂‐L₂)Br₂] ( 2 ), [Fe(L₁)₂(NCS)₂(H₂O)₂] ( 3 ), [Fe(L₃)₂(dca)₂(H₂O)₂] ( 4 ), and [Fe(L₃)₂(μ₂‐dca)] ( 5 ) (dca = dicyanamide anion). When different zinc(II) salts were used to react with L₁ and L₂ under solvothermal conditions, two one‐dimensional (1D) zinc(II) coordination frameworks 1 and 2 containing four‐coordinate central zinc(II) atoms were isolated. 1 is a 3D achiral supra‐molecular framework, whereas 2 is a 3D chiral supra‐molecular framework containing helical chains on a 2₁ axis. 3 is a mono‐nuclear iron(II) coordination framework containing six‐coordinate central Fe^II atoms. When L₃ was employed, mono‐nuclear iron(II) framework 4 and 1D iron(II) chain 5 could be isolated when different amounts of Nadca were introduced into the reaction system. Variable‐temperature magnetic susceptibility data of 3 – 5 were recorded in the 2–300 K temperature range indicating weak anti‐ferromagnetic interactions. The solid‐state luminescent properties of coordination polymers 1 and 2 were also investigated at room temperature.     

A series of 1-D zinc(II) coordination polymers with 3-D supramolecular networks: synthesis,structural investigation,and NBO analysis

Abstract

N,N′-Bis(pyridin-4-ylmethylene)naphthalene-1,5-diamine (L) acts as a bipyridine analogue linker ligand towards {Zn₇(μ₄-O)₂(OAc)₁₀}, {Zn₂(NCS)₂(OAc)₂}, and {Zn(N₃)₂} nodes and allows construction of three new 1-D coordination polymers, the linear chain [Zn₇(μ₄-O)₂(OAc)₁₀(L)]_n (1), [Zn(NCS)(OAc)(L)]_n (2) in ladder-type geometry and the zigzag chain [Zn(N₃)₂(L)]_n (3). Structural characterization reveals that in 1 acetate anionic ligands connect seven Zn(II) ions through the bridging coordination modes μ₃-η¹,η² and μ₂-η¹,η¹. The resulting heptanuclear node is located on an inversion center and therefore consists of four crystallographically distinct cations; their coordination spheres correspond to distorted octahedra or tetrahedra. The Zn(II) ions in polymer 2 exhibit distorted trigonal bipyramidal {ZnN₃O₂} coordination; μ₂-η¹,η¹ coordinated acetate and terminal thiocyanate ligands lead to inversion-symmetric [Zn₂(NCS)₂(OAc)₂] secondary building units (SBU), which are further linked by the N,N′-bipyridine analogue L. Terminal coordination of two anionic azide ligands and the bridging bipyridine L result in coordination polymer 3, in which the cations adopt distorted tetrahedral {ZnN₄} coordination. In all crystalline solids 1–3, adjacent 1-D chains interact through π–π stacking and non-classical (C???H···O, C???H···π) hydrogen bonds, leading to 3-D supramolecular architectures. Differences in their 3-D arrangement are due to variations in the anionic co-ligands, subtle conformational differences in the semi-rigid linker and the variable coordination sphere about the zinc cations. Thermogravimetric investigations indicate differences in both thermal stability and decomposition mode. Natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis provides a convenient basis for investigating the intramolecular bonding interactions and delocalization effects in these molecular systems. Finally, solids 1–3 exhibit intense luminescence at room temperature.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Novel Polymeric Lead(II) Compound: [Pb2(phen)2(N3)3(ClO4)]n

A 2D lead(II) coordination polymer [Pb₂(phen)₂(N₃)₃(ClO₄)]_n,( 1 ) containing 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen) and two different anions, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopy and X‐ray crystallography. The single‐crystal X‐ray data show two different kinds of Pb²⁺ ions with coordination numbers of eight, Pb1 = PbN₆O₂ and Pb2 = PbN₈, with hemidirected and holodirected structures, respectively. The supramolecular features in 1 is negiotated through the weak but directional C‐H···O and C‐H···N interactions and aromatic π–π stacking interactions.     

Topological diversification of two new Cd(II) photoluminescent coordination polymers via auxiliary N-donor ligands

Two new cadmium(II) coordination polymers, [Cd₂(nda)₂(L₁)] _n (1) and [Cd(nda)(L₂)_0.5] _n (2), were hydrothermally synthesized with 1,4-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid (H₂nda) and auxiliary N-donor coligands [L₁?=?1,5-bis(2-methyl-imidazol-1-yl)pentane and L₂?=?4,4′-bis(2-methyl-imidazol-1-ylmethyl)biphenyl]. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses showed that the topological networks are different when the N-donor ligands are changed. Compound 1 showed a (4¹⁶.6⁵) topology and 2 showed a twofold interpenetrating pcu topology.     

Synthesis and spectroscopic studies of mixed-ligand complexes of lead(II) hexafluoroacetylacetonate including the crystal structure of [Pb2(phen)4(hfa)2(𝛍-NO3)2]

Four new mixed-ligand complexes of lead(II) hexafluoroacetylacetonate (hfa) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The single-crystal structure of [Pb₂(phen)₄(hfa)₂(μ-NO₃)₂] (1) shows the complex to be a dimeric unit as a result of nitrate bridging. The coordination number of Pb(II) is eight with four N-donors from a “phen” and four O-donors from the hexafluoroacetylacetonate and nitrate ligands. This dimeric complex is the first fluorine β-diketonate and nitrate mixed-ligand lead(II) complex that has been characterized by X-ray structural analysis. The supramolecular features in this complex are controlled by weak directional intermolecular interactions and aromatic π–π stacking interactions.     

Structural and X-ray powder diffraction studies of nano-structured lead(II) coordination polymer with η Pb?C interactions

A new nano-sized Pb(II) one-dimensional coordination polymer with η² Pb-C interactions, [Pb₂(μ₃-ba)₂(μ₂-ba)₂]_n (1) [ba⁻ = benzylacetylacetonate] has been synthesized and characterized by SEM, X-ray powder diffraction, IR spectroscopy and elemental analyses. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction shows the coordination number of Pb(II) ions is seven and the lead atoms have hemidirected coordination sphere containing involving Pb?C interactions, C₂O₇Pb. PbO nanoparticles were obtained by calcinations of the nano-sized compound 1 at 600 °C.     

New polynuclear compounds based on N-benzyliminodipropionic acid: solution studies,synthesis, and X-ray crystal structures

Three new polynuclear compounds based on a dicarboxylic acid ligand are reported. In particular, two Cu(II) coordination compounds, [Cu₂(H₂O)₆(Hbzlidp)₂](CF₃SO₃)₂·2H₂O (1) and [Cu(NO₃)(Hbzlidp)]_∞ (2) (bzlidp^2? = N-benzyliminodipropionate anion), and a Ni(II) dinuclear compound, [Ni₂(H₂O)₄(bzlidp)₂] (3), were synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Different structures were obtained depending on the reaction conditions. The structural analyses reveal that 1 was formed by dinuclear [Cu₂(H₂O)₆(Hbzlidp)₂]²⁺ units built by two copper(II) ions joined through two Hbzlidp^? ligands, while 2 was formed by pairs of Cu(II) centers bridged by four syn,syn carboxylate groups to generate “paddle wheel” units. The dinuclear copper units are arranged in a rhombus type grid, in a 2-D layer structure. In both cases, the N was protonated and not coordinated to the metal center. Compound 3 was formed by [Ni₂(H₂O)₄(bzlidp)₂] neutral dinuclear units, with octahedral Ni(II) centers. Solution studies of the ligand–M(II) systems (M(II) = Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb) were also carried out.     

Aggregation of two different coordination polymers by reacting zinc nitrate and cadmium chloride with N,N′-ethylenebisacetamide

Two different coordination polymers are obtained from d¹⁰ metal ions [Zn(II) and Cd(II)] and N,N′-ethylenebisacetamide (EBA). {[Zn(EBA)_1.5(NO₃)]?·?(NO₃)} _n (1) is a 1-D coordination polymer assembled from zinc ions and EBA molecules acting as a bridging ligand. Cd(H₂O)₂Cl₂(EBA) (2) is constructed from 1-D inorganic polymeric chains {Cd(OH₂)₂Cl₂} _n and uncoordinated N,N′-ethylenebisacetamide molecules. These chains are interconnected through hydrogen bonds resulting in a 3-D supramolecular network. The luminescent properties of the organic molecule EBA, as well as of the coordination polymers 1, and 2 have been investigated.     

Syntheses,crystal structures,and photophysical properties of two 2-D coordination polymers with different geometries of lead(II)

Two complexes constructed from aromatic acid and N-heterocyclic ligands have been synthesized by hydrothermal reaction: [Pb(cipt)(NDC)]_n (1) [cipt?=?2-(3-chlorophenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline, NDC?=?naphthalene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid] and [Pb(ipm)(BDC)₂]_n (2) [BDC?=?terephthalic acid, ipm?=?5-(1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthrolin-2-yl)-2-methoxyphenol]. Single-crystal X-ray analysis shows that 1 exhibits an interesting arm-shaped chain structure. 1-D ladder chain structure is formed by N–H···O bonding interactions and further into a 2-D network by N–H···O hydrogen bonds and interchain π–π stacking interactions. Complex 2 shows a 2-D butterfly wings structure, which has been rarely reported. The structure in 2 has intermolecular N–H···O interactions, which help in construction of the 3-D framework. In 1, the coordination sphere of Pb(II) is hemi-directed, whereas the Pb(II) geometry in 2 is holo-directed. The solid-state fluorescence spectra of 1 and 2 are also investigated, as well as the ligands cipt and ipm.     

Two non-interpenetrating 3D coordination networks with (3, 4)-connected topologies

Two new coordination polymers, namely [Zn₃(1,3,5-BTC)₂(L¹)₂(H₂O)₂] · 2H₂O (1) and [Cd₃(1,2,3-BTC)₂(L²)₃] · H₂O (2) (where L¹ = 1,2-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene, L² = 1,1′-(1,4-butanediyl)bis(imidazole), 1,3,5-H₃BTC = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid and 1,2,3-H₃BTC = 1,2,3-benzenetricarboxylic acid), were synthesized in hydrothermal conditions. In 1, each 1,3,5-BTC anion coordinates to three Zn cations, and the framework of 1 can be simplified as (6 · 8 · 10)₂(6² · 8 · 10³)(8² · 10)(6² · 10) topology. In 2, 1,2,3-BTC anions coordinate to three cadmiums, and the whole structure displays a (6² · 8⁴)₂(6⁴ · 8 · 10)(6² · 8)₂ network containing three different types of nodes. The luminescent properties for 1 and 2 are discussed.     

Synthesis and Structural Characterization of One‐Dimensional Cadmium(II) Coordination Polymers Containing Polydentate Nitrogen Ligands

The reactions of Cd(NO₃)₂·4H₂O with NH₄SCN and 2,4‐dpa (2,4‐dpa = 2,4‐dipyridineamine) in CH₃OH afforded the one‐dimensional coordination polymer [Cd(NCS)₂(2,4‐dpa)₂]_n, 1 , while reaction of Cd(NO₃)₂·4H₂O with NH₄SCN and PmPa (PmPa = 2‐(1‐piperazinyl)pyrimidine) in CH₃OH gave complex of the type [Cd(NCS)₂(PmPa)₂]_n, 2. Each of the 2,4‐dpa ligand in complex 1 is coordinated to the Cd²⁺ metal center through pyridyl nitrogen atoms to form the one‐dimensional chain structures. The distorted {CdN4S2} octahedral coordination geometry around Cd²⁺ center is completed by pairs of bidentate thiocyanato ligands. Complex 2 has the 1‐D arrangement constructed through one‐dimensional double μ(N,S) end‐to‐end bridging thiocyanato groups bridged Cd(II) chains interconnected through PmPa ligands.     

Two new lead(II) nitrite complexes,crystal structure of [Pb(phen)2(NO2)2] an eight-coordinate lead(II) complex

Two new lead(II) complexes containing nitrite, [Pb(L)₂(NO₂)₂], L?=?1,10-phenanthroline (phen) or 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy), have been synthesized and characterized. The crystal structure of [Pb(phen)₂(NO₂)₂] shows monomeric units. The coordination number is eight (four from “phen” ligands and four nitrite anions), weak interaction of lead(II) with oxygen atoms of adjacent molecules produce dimer units in the solid state. The arrangement of ligands exhibits a coordination hole around the lead(II), occupied possibly by a stereoactive lone pair of electrons on lead(II), and the coordination around lead is hemidirected. There is a π–π stacking interaction between the parallel aromatic rings that may help to increase the “gap” around lead(II).     

Synthesis,crystal structures,and characterization of two Co(II) coordination polymers with 3-pyrid-3-ylbenzoic acid

Two pyridinecarboxylato-bridged coordination polymers {[Co(pbc)₂(H₂O)] · H₂O} _n (1) and [Co(pbc)₂] _n (2) (Hpbc = 3-pyrid-3-ylbenzoic acid) have been synthesized by the hydrothermal method and characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction. In 1, pbc^? ligands link two Co(II) centers as μ₂-N,O and μ₂-N,O,O. Co(II) is six coordinate, octahedral. In 2, Co(II) is coordinated by four oxygens and two nitrogens. The ligands are μ₂-N,O,O and μ₃-N,O,O. Through different pbc^? ligands, 2 generates a 3-D network composed of six-connected nodes. Compound 2 exhibits good photoluminescence, whereas 1 is nonemissive at room temperature.     

A Pb2+-based coordination polymer with 5-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)isophthalic acid ligand: structure and photoluminescence

A coordination polymer, [Pb₂(OH)(tzia)]·2H₂O (1), has been prepared by solvothermal reaction of 5-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)isophthalic acid (H₃tzia) and Pb(NO₃)₂. The polymer 1 is based on an unprecedented centrosymmetric tetranuclear [Pb₄(OH)₂(COO)₄(ttaz)₂] cluster linked by a multidentate tzia ligand, affording a 2-D 3,6-connected kgd layer. The adjacent layers are further jointed by Pb?O interactions to form a 3-D supramolecular framework with a rare (3,8)-connected tfz-d; UO₃ topology. Photoluminescent properties of H₃tzia, 1, and 1-desolvated have been further investigated, and it was interesting to find that 1-desolvated due to the removal of lattice water molecules reveals stronger photoluminescence than 1.     

Structures and luminescent properties of four compounds based on binuclear metal-terpyridine building blocks

Four new coordination polymers, [Cd(3-TPTP)Cl]₂ (3-HTPTP = 4′-(3-tetrazolylphenyl)2,2′:6′2′′-terpyridine, 1), {[Cd(3-TPTP)(pBDC)_0.5]?4H₂O}_n (pH₂BDC = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid, 2), {[Mn(3-TPTP)(mBDC)_0.5]?5H₂O}_n (mH₂BDC = 1,3-benzenedicarboxylic acid, 3), and [Pb(3-TPTP)(H₂O)₂]?OH (4), were obtained. Compounds 1–3 are composed of binuclear [M₂(3-TPTP)₂] ring as building unit. In 1, the binuclear rings pack into a 3-D supramolecular framework via various hydrogen bonds. In 2 and 3, the binuclear rings are connected by mBDC^2? and pBDC^2?, respectively, resulting in two types of 1-D chains. In 4, the mononuclear [Pb(3-TPTP)] units are connected by Pb?N weak interactions, giving a chiral 1-D coordination chain, which is further connected by O–H?N interaction to form a chiral 3-D supramolecular framework. The phase purity of 1–4 and luminescence properties of 1, 2, and 4 were also investigated.
