One‐dimensional Cadmium(II) Coordination Polymers: Syntheses and Crystal Structures of [Cd(H2O)3(C5H6O4)]·2H2O,Cd(H2O)2(C6H8O4), and Cd(H2O)2(C8H12O4)

[Cd(H₂O)₃(C₅H₆O₄)]·2H₂O ( 1 ) and Cd(H₂O)₂(C₆H₈O₄) ( 2 ) were prepared from reactions of fresh CdCO₃ precipitate with aqueous solutions of glutaric acid and adipic acid, respectively, while Cd(H₂O)₂(C₈H₁₂O₄) ( 3 ) crystallized in a filtrate obtained from the hydrothermal reaction of CdCl₂·2.5H₂O, suberic acid and H₂O. Compound 1 consists of hydrogen bonded water molecules and linear {[Cd(H₂O)₃](C₅H₆O₄)_2/2} chains, which result from the pentagonal bipyramidally coordinated Cd atoms bridged by bis‐chelating glutarato ligands. In 2 and 3 , the six‐coordinate Cd atoms are bridged by bis‐chelating adipato and suberato ligands into zigzag chains according to {[Cd(H₂O)₃](C₅H₆O₄)_2/2} and {[Cd(H₂O)₂](C₈H₁₂O₄)_2/2}, respectively. The hydrogen bonds between water and the carboxylate oxygen atoms are responsible for the supramolecular assemblies of the zigzag chains into 3D networks. Crystallographic data: ( 1 ) P1¯ (no. 2), a = 8.012(1), b = 8.160(1), c = 8.939(1) Å, α = 82.29(1)°, β = 76.69(1)°, γ = 81.68(1)°, U = 559.6(1) ų, Z = 2; ( 2 ) C2/c (no. 15), a = 16.495(1), b = 5.578(1), c = 11.073(1) Å, β = 95.48(1)°, U = 1014.2(1) ų, Z = 4; ( 3 ) P2/c (no. 13), a = 9.407(2), b = 5.491(1), c = 11.317(2) Å, β = 95.93(3)°, U = 581.4(2) ų, Z = 2.     

Syntheses and crystal structures of two cadmium coordination polymers [Cd(2-mBIM)(NCS)(SCN)] n and [Cd2(2-mBIM)2(NO3)2(C4H4O4)(H2O)5] n based on bis(2-methylimidazol-1-yl)methane

Two cadmium(II) coordination polymers, [Cd(2-mBIM)(NCS)(SCN)] _n (1) and [Cd₂(2-mBIM)₂(NO₃)₂(C₄H₄O₄)(H₂O)₅] _n (2) (2-mBIM = bis(2-methylimidazo-1-yl)methane, C₄H₄O₄= succinate), have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P 1 with a = 9.0770(5) Å, b = 9.4043(4) Å, c = 19.8720(9) Å, α = 101.551(1)°, β = 93.498(1)°, γ = 108.484(1)°, V = 1562.02(13) ų, and Z = 2. Each Cd(II) is octahedrally coordinated and connected with two adjacent Cd(II)'s by double end-to-end thiocyanate bridges, resulting in the formation of 1-D zigzag chains, linked to each other via bridging 2-mBIM giving a 2-D supramolecular framework. Complex 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/n with a = 12.6543(6) Å, b = 7.7128(4) Å, c = 17.3089(9) Å, β = 109.3980(10)°, V = 1593.45(14) ų, and Z = 2. Cd(II) is coordinated with oxygen and nitrogens from two independent 2-mBIM, in a cis-configuration to form a 1-D helical structure. A 3-D supramolecular network comprised of succinate anion bridged 1-D helical chains, and weak hydrogen bonds between dimer waters gave 2-D layers.     

Reaction of bis[bis(tri-tert-butoxysilanethiolato) cadmium(II)] with 3,5-dimethylpyridine - 113Cd NMR solution study

NMR studies on the reaction of bis[bis(tri-tert-butoxysilanethiolato)cadmium(II)] with 3,5-dimethylpyridine in benzene-d(6) and toluene-d(8) solutions provide clear evidence for the equilibrium character of formation of mixed S,N-ligand cadmium complex.
