Two new sliver selenidoantimonates,namely,Ag_3SbSe_3 and Ag_5SbSe_4,were prepared under mid solvothermal conditions and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.Ag_3SbSe_3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma(No.62) with a =8.2414(12),b = 11.4925(17),c = 21.220(3) A,V= 2009.8(5) A~3 and Z= 12.Its structure belongs to the β-Ag_3AsSe_3 type and features a 3D complex network composed of distorted trigonal planar AgSe_3 and tetrahedral AgSe_4 units as well as SbSe_3 trigonal pyramids.Ag_5SbSe_4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic system,nocentrosymmetric space group Cmc2_1(No.36) with a = 8.1148(6),b =12.9829(10),c = 8.7017(7) A,V= 916.76(12) A~3 and Z = 4.Its structure adopts the Ag_5SbS_4 type and features a 3D framework based on trigonal planar AgSe_3 units and SbSe_3 trigonal pyramids.The results of optical absorption spectra and band structure calculations indicate that the title compounds are narrow band-gap semiconductors.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Biological Properties of One Zinc(Ⅱ) Complex Based on 4-Acyl Pyrazolone Derivative

[Zn(L)(CH3OH)3](H2L = N-(1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-propenylidene-5-pyrazolone)-salicylidene hydrazide) has been synthesized by the reaction of zinc nitrate and ligand H2 L. The complex crystallizes in orthorhombic system, space group Pbca with a = 5.888(15), b = 14.564(14), c = 22.20(2) , V = 5137(8) 3, Z = 8 and F(000) = 2184. The ligand serves as a negative bivalent tridentate chelating agent to coordinate with the central zinc(II) atom. DNA-binding was studied by UV-Vis spectral analysis and ethidium bromide(EB) displacement experiments. The results showed that the DNA-binding constant of the complex is 5.1×104 M–1. Antitumor activity of [Zn(L)(CH3OH)3] and the ligand have been investigated by MTT assay, which indicated that the complex has better cytotoxicity to Eca-109 and He La than free ligand.     

Syntheses and Structures of a New Tetrazylphosphonate Ligand and the Coordination Polymer Based on Zn~(Ⅱ)

A novel tetrazylphosphonate ligand, namely ethyl 4-(2-ethyl-2H-1,2,3,4-tetrazol-5-yl) benzylphosphonate(Et-L), was designed and successfully achieved from p-cyano benzyl chloride, based on which a zinc coordination polymer(1) with a 2D layer structure has been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR, TGA and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. The colorless block crystals of H_2L·H_2O were also obtained under the same hydrothermal conditions, which belongs to monoclinic system, space group P2_1/c with a = 13.3141(7), b = 5.1650(3), c = 21.9839(18) ?, β = 115.307(5)°, V = 1366.69(15) ?~3, Z = 4, D_c = 1.391 mg/cm~(-3), Mr = 349.58, F(000) = 600, R = 0.0748 and wR = 0.1917 for 2392 observed reflections(I 2σ(I)). The colorless block crystals of complex 1([Zn(L)(H_2O)]_n) also belong to monoclinic system, space group P2_1/c with a = 22.7464(10), b = 6.0430(3), c = 9.7704(4) ?, β = 92.525(4)°, V = 1341.70(10) ?~3, Z = 4, D_c = 1.731 mg/cm_(-3), M_r = 349.58, F(000) = 712, R = 0.0596 and wR = 0.1688 for 2357 observed reflections(I 2σ(I)). Only the oxygen atoms of phosphonic group are coordinated with the metal zinc probably because the hydrogen atom of tetrazole has been substituted by ethyl group. Photoluminescence properties of the complex are also investigated.
