The coordination polymers (CPs), [Ni(L)(H₂O)₄]_n ( 1 ), [Co(HL)₂(H₂O)₂]_n ( 2 ), {[Cu(L)(H₂O)₃] · H₂O}_n ( 3 ), [Mn(L)(H₂O)₂]_n ( 4 ), [Cd(L)(H₂O)₂]_n ( 5 ), and {[Zn₂(L)₂] · H₂O}_n ( 6 ), were solvothermally synthesized by employing the imidazol‐carboxyl bifunctional ligand 4‐(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl) phthalic acid (H₂L). Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction indicated that the L^2–/HL^– ligands display various coordination modes with different metal ions in 1 – 6 . Complexes 1 and 2 show one‐dimensional (1D) chain structures, whereas complexes 3 – 6 show 2D layered structures. The magnetic properties of these complexes were investigated.

In addition, luminescence properties of 5 and 6 were measured and studied in detail.     

Three Novel 1‐H‐Benzimidazole‐5‐Carboxylate‐Based Nickel(II)/Cobalt(II) Coordination Polymers: Synthesis,Crystal Structures,Luminescent, and Magnetic Properties

Three 1H‐benzimidazole‐5‐carboxylate (Hbic^–)‐based coordination polymers, {[Ni(H₂O)(Hbic)₂] · 2H₂O}_n ( 1 ), {[Ni(H₂O)₂(Hbic)₂] · 3H₂O}_n ( 2 ), and {[Co₂(H₂O)₄(Hbic)₄] · 4DMF · 3H₂O}_n ( 3 ) were obtained by reactions of the ligand H₂bic and Ni^II or Co^II salts in the presence of different structure directing molecules. They were structurally characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, IR spectra, elemental analysis, thermal stability, luminescent, and magnetic measurements. Structural analysis suggests that the three polymers exhibit a 2D (4, 4) layer for 1 and 1D linear double chains for both 2 and 3 due to the variable binding modes and the specific spatial orientation of the Hbic^– ligand towards the different paramagnetic metal ions, which were further aggregated into different 3D supramolecular architectures by popular hydrogen‐bonding interactions. Weak and comparable antiferromagnetic couplings mediating by Hbic^– bridge are observed between the neighboring spin carriers for 2 and 3 , respectively. Additionally, complexes 1 – 3 also display different luminescence emissions at room temperature due to the ligand‐to‐metal charge transfer.

The title compounds 1 and 2 have the same chemical composition but exhibit different structures and are therefore polymorphs. Thus, in compound 1 , isolated ZnO₄‐tetrahedra, and in 2 , infinite double‐chains of corner‐sharing ZnO₆ polyhedra are observed. In, KZn[H(O₂C)₂C₆H₃PO₃] ( 3 ) K⁺‐ions have been incorporated into the structure leading to the formation of a bimetallic inorganic‐organic hybrid compound.

Compound 4 features a puckered two‐dimensional (2D) (4,4) network, and the large voids of the packing 2D nets have accommodated the uncoordinated L guest molecules. An abundant of N–H···O, O–H···O and C–H···O hydrogen bonding interactions exist in complexes 1–4 , which contributes to stabilize the crystal structure and extend the low‐dimensional entities into high‐dimensional frameworks. Lastly, the photoluminiscent properties of compounds 2 were also investigated.

A metal‐organic framework (MOF ) formulated as [Cd₂(μ₃‐L)₂(DMF )₄]•H₂O ( CdL ) [H₂L =9‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)‐ 9H ‐carbazole‐3,6‐dicarboxylic acid, DMF =N ,N ‐dimethylformamide] was synthesized under solvothermal condition. Crystal structural analysis reveals that CdL features the layered 2D framework with L^{2 −} ligands as 3‐connected nodes. The compound CdL emits blue‐violet light with the narrow emission peak and the emission maximum at 414 nm upon excitation at the maximum excitation wavelength of 340 nm. The compound CdL has a similar emission spectrum curve to the free H₂L ligand that indicates the emission of compound CdL should be originated from the coordinated L^{2 −} ligands.

All the complexes were characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and powder X‐ray diffraction (PXRD) patterns.

The central metal atoms show distinct coordination arrangements ranging from distorted square‐pyramid for Cu^II in 1 , octahedron for Zn^II in 2 , to pentagonal‐bipyramid for Cd^II in 3 . The L²² ligand adopts the same (η³,μ₂) coordination fashion in complexes 1 – 3 , while the carboxyl groups of co‐ligand 5‐nipa^2– adopt monodentate fashion in 1 and 2 and bidentate chelating mode in 3 . These results indicate that the choice of metal ions exerts a significant influence on governing the target complexes. Furthermore, thermal stabilities of complexes 1 – 3 and photoluminescent properties of 2 and 3 were also studied in the solid state.

Compound 1 is a one‐dimensional chain bridged by terephthalate in a bis(monodentate) fashion. In the complex the nitrogen atom from N_BIm and the coordination water molecule complete the coordination sphere. In complex 2 , the dinuclear cobalt units are bridged by terephthalate in a bis(bidentate) fashion into a one‐dimensional chain, but different from complex 1 , the nitrogen atom from N_Py and the oxygen atom from hydrogenterephthalate complete the coordination sphere. Complex 3 is a co‐crystal with PyBImE and H₂BDC in a 1:1 ratio and the transfer of hydrogen atoms leads the complex into a salt. Interesting supramolecular structures are shown due to the hydrogen bonding as well as π ··· π interactions in the three complexes. Thermal and magnetic properties of 1 and 2 were also studied.

The catalytic properties of compounds 1 and 3 were investigated in the synthesis of cyanohydrins at room temperature under solventless conditions. They showed similar catalytic activities with very high conversions of benzaldehyde and high selectivity towards cyanohydrin. The control experiment without addition of the coordination polymers only reached 16 % conversion. Other aldehydes could also be converted totally under shorter reaction times also with very high selectivities for the corresponding cyanohydrins. Compound 1 could also be recycled in another catalytic cycle.

Two rare earth metal‐organic framework compounds [Ybsip(H₂O)₅] · 3H₂O ( 1 ) and [Dysip(H₂O)₄] ( 2 ) (NaH₂sip: 5‐sulfoisophthalic acid sodium salt) were synthesized hydrothermally, and characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, elemental analysis, and FT‐IR spectroscopy. In complex 1 , each Yb^III atom is nine‐coordinate with a distorted monocapped tetragonal prismatic arrangement. Two carboxylate groups of each sip^3– molecule adopt the same μ₁‐η¹:η¹ chelating coordination model connecting two Yb^III atoms. The oxygen atoms of the sulfonate group do not participate in coordination with Yb^III. The whole sip^3– molecule acts as a μ₂ bridge to form an one‐dimensional (1D) chain structure. The 1D chains are linked by hydrogen bonding to generate two‐dimensional layers, and are further combined together to form a three‐dimensional structure. In complex 2 , the Dy^III atom is nine‐coordinate with a distorted monocapped tetragonal antiprismatic arrangement. In each sip^3– anion, two carboxylate groups take the same μ₁‐η¹:η¹ chelating coordination mode, only an oxygen atom of sulfonate group bond to Dy^III ion. The whole ligand sip^3– acts as a μ₃ bridge linking three different Dy^III ions to generate a wave‐like two‐dimensional network with (6,3) topological structure. The two‐dimensional networks are further linked by O–H ··· O hydrogen bonds to form a three‐dimensional structure. The thermal and luminescent properties of both complexes are investigated.

Their structures were determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction and further characterized by elemental analyses and IR spectroscopy. Polymer 1 is formed at pH = 4 and has a 1D chain structure. These 1D chains are linked by hydrogen bonds to afford a 1D double chain and further to form a threefold interpenetrating network. At pH = 7, a 2D layer structure of 2 with sql topology is formed. By using calcium hydroxide as base for the synthesis of 3 , a 3D network with pcu topology is obtained. These structural differences among 1 – 3 indicate that pH value and the identity of the base play important role in defining the overall structures of metal‐organic frameworks. In addition, the fluorescent properties of 1 – 3 are discussed.

In compounds 2 – 4 , dinuclear metal clusters are formed through carboxylic groups. In compound 5 , trinuclear metal clusters are formed through μ₃‐OH and carboxylic groups. The carboxylic groups exhibit three coordination modes in compounds 1 – 5 : monodentately, bidentate‐chelating, and bis‐monodentately. Furthermore, the luminescent properties for compounds 3 , 4 , and 5 were investigated.
