A concurrent, irreversible structural change of the complex cations was observed and a tentative explanation is suggested.     

Two New Borates Built by Different Types of {B9} Cluster Units

Two new belt-like borates Na₄[B₉O₁₄(OH)₃]·0.5H₂O(1) and Na₅[B₉O₁₄(OH)₄](2) have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions. Both compounds contain unprecedented B₉O₁₆(OH)_n^(n+5)-[n=3(1), 4(2)] clusters, which are constructed from four B₃O₃ rings via three BO₄ tetrahedra. Compound 1 exhibits a rare 1D belt with two types of 8-membered ring(MR) windows based on B₉O₁₆(OH)₃^8- clusters.

UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra reveal that compounds 1 and 2 have the cut-off edges below 190 nm, indicating that they may have potential application in deep UV(DUV) region.     

Multi-functional Photoelectric Sensor Based on a Three-fold Interpenetrated Cd(II) Coordination Polymer for Sensitively Detecting Different Ions

Athree-fold interpenetrated cadmium coordination polymer[Cd₃(BTC)₂(H₂O)₉]·2H₂O(CP 1)(H₃BTC=1,3,5-benzenetricar-boxylic acid) was selected and synthesized to investigate its photoelectric properties.

More importantly, fluorescence sensing studies indicated that CP 1 exhibits sensing activity for Fe³⁺, Fe²⁺, and MnO₄^- with good cyclic stability and selectivity. Low LOD and high-sensitivity capability of CP 1 make it a potential multifunctional photoelectric sensor.

Two Zinc(Ⅱ) Complexes Based on 7rany-(1R,2R)-cyclohexanediamine: Molecular Structure Analyses and Preparation of Composite Membrane

Two novel complexes Zn2(chda)2(TPA)Cl2(1) and [Zn(chda)2(H2O)2](TPAXH2O)2(2)[chda is a chiral ligand of trans-(1R,2R)-cyclohexanediamine, H2TPA is terephthalic acid] were synthesized at room temperature.

Synthesis and characterisation of main-chain hydrogen-bonded supramolecular liquid crystalline complexes formed by azo-containing compounds

A series of azopyridine-containing hydrogen bonding acceptors (4a-c) with flexible spacers of oligo(methylene) were synthesised. Hydrogen-bonded polymeric complexes 4/5 and trimeric complexes 4/6₂ , where 5 and 6 are aromatic dicarboxylic acids and monocarboxylic acids, respectively, were prepared and their liquid crystallinity was examined using differential scanning calorimetry and polarising optical microscopy. The study showed that most of the complexes displayed reversible thermotropic nematic phase. The isotropic to nematic phase transition temperatures of polymeric complexes 4/5 and trimeric complexes 4/6₂ in general decreased with the increase in length of spacers and terminal groups in the corresponding proton acceptors 4 and the proton donors 5 and 6, respectively. Hydrogen bonding interactions in complexes 4/5 and 4/6₂ were studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.
