Synthesis of Coordination Polymers Using Different Maleic Acid Ligands under Hydrothermal Conditions

A novel coordination polymer, [Ni(mal)(1,10′-phen)(H2O)]n(1)(mal=malate, 1,10′-phen=1,10-phenanthroline) was synthesized using malic acid which was generated from maleic acid via hydrothermal reaction. Complex 1, which displays a two-dimensional supramolecular network, was formed by the addition reaction of Ni and maleic acid with water molecules. To our knowledge, several coordination polymers have been directly synthesized from malic acid, but these types of complexes have seldom been synthesized from maleic acid via hydrothermal reactions.

The X-ray crystallographic analysis showed that complexes 4 b and 4 d adopted a nearsquare-planar geometry, and the anilines bearing a para-OMe or ―CF_3 group were found to situate on the axial position of the metal center. All complexes exhibited high activities up to 1.25 × 10~7–1.35 × 10~7 g PNB·mol_(Ni)~(–1)·h~(–1) toward norbornene(NBE) addition polymerization(conversion 91.2% in 2 min) under low loading of B(C_6F_5)_3(B/Ni = 3) at 30 °C, affording polymers with high molecular weight up to 2.54 × 10~6–3.18 × 10~6. Different levels of decrease in catalytic activities could be observed for all catalysts as the reaction temperature increased; 4 d bearing a strong electron-withdrawing ―CF_3 group showed the highest activity at 70 °C, while others exhibited notable decrease in catalytic activity with the raise in reaction temperature. Complexes 4 a–4 d showed remarkable tolerance to polar groups and could efficiently promote the copolymerization of NBE with its polar derivatives, including NBE bearing small acetate and hydroxyl group, as well as bulky oligomers, yielding copolymers with high functional NBE incorporations. Novel NBE copolymers with high functional comonomer incorporations and improved solubility were obtained in high yields.
