Three cadmium(II) coordination polymers, [CdBr₂(L₁)] _n (1), [CdI₂(L₂)] _n (2), and Cd₂Br₄(L₃)₂ (3), where L₁?=?1,3-bis(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole)propane, L₂?=?1,4-bis(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole)butane, and L₃?=?1,6-bis(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole)hexane, have been synthesized by hydrothermal methods and characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra, TGA, PXRD, and X-ray crystallographic diffraction. Complex 1 contains a 1-D helical chain in which CdBr₂ units are linked by L₁. For 2, each CdI₂ is connected by two different conformations of L₂ to form a 1-D zigzag chain. For 3, each CdBr₂ is linked by L₃ bridges to afford a binuclear structure. These results indicate that the spacer length of the ligands play important roles in assembly of Cd(II) coordination polymers. Thermogravimetric analyses and solid-state luminescent properties of the complexes have also been investigated.

In 2 L2 displays a μ₄-bridging coordination mode. Both complexes exhibit strong fluorescence emission.

Syntheses,X-ray structures and properties of a dinuclear cadmium(II)azido and a polymeric cadmium(II)thiocyanato compounds containing bis(tridentate) congregators

One-pot reactions of cadmium(II) perchlorate/nitrate, Schiff bases (pbap/pfap) and pseudohalides (sodium azide/ammonium thiocyanate) in a 2:1:4 molar ratio in MeOH–MeCN solvent mixtures at room temperature result in a dinuclear compound [Cd₂(pbap)(OH₂)₂(N₃)₄] (1) [pbap = N-(1-pyridin-2-ylbenzylidene)-N-[2-(4-{2-[(1-pyridin-2-ylbenzylidene)amino]ethyl}piperazin-1-yl)ethyl]amine] and a polymeric compound [Cd₂(pfap)(μ_1,3-NCS)(μ_1,3-SCN)(NCS)₂]_n (2) [pfap = N-(1-pyridin-2-ylformylidene)-N-[2-(4-{2-[(1-pyridin-2ylformylidene)amino]ethyl}piperazin-1-yl)ethyl]-amine]. X-ray crystal structural analyses reveal a bis(tridentate) congregation behaviour of the hexadentate blocker (pbap/pfap) encapsulating two metal centers. Each cadmium(II) center in 1 and 2 is in a distorted octahedral geometry with CdN₅O and CdN₅S chromophores, respectively. In 1, the dinuclear units participate in intermolecular O–H?N hydrogen bonding between bound water O atoms and terminal azide N atoms, in combination with C–H?π interactions, resulting in a 3D supramolecular network with an intramolecular Cd?Cd distance of 6.473(2) Å. In the crystal lattice, the covalent 1D chain of 2 is further engaged in face-to-face π?π interactions from two terminal pyridine rings, which stabilizes the chain with an intradimer Cd?Cd separation of 6.640(5) Å. Both the complexes display intraligand ¹(π–π^∗) fluorescence and intraligand ³(π–π^∗) phosphorescence in glassy solutions.

Compound 1 was synthesized under solvothermal conditions with DMF as solvent and had a pair of L ligands adopting a μ₂-bridging mode and connecting two Co²⁺ cations to generate a 26-membered Co₂L₂ loop. The npa^2? link adjacent Co₂L₂ loops via a bis(monodentate) bridging mode to create a 1-D channel-like chain structure. Compound 2 was obtained under hydrothermal conditions, and the carboxylate of the monodeprotonated Hnpa^? adopt a μ₁-η^0?:?η¹ coordination to connect adjacent Co²⁺ cations into a 2-D polymeric layer.

Both complex 1 and 2 possess infinite double-chain structures, in which each Cu(II) center has a tetrahedral configuration and the Cd(II) centers adopt triangular prismatic and square-based pyramidal configurations simultaneously. The inter-chain face to face π–π interactions among the aromatic rings of phen and the hydrogen bond interactions between aqua molecules and carboxyl O atoms result in 3-D networks in the two complexes.
