Syntheses and characterizations of three-dimensional channel-like polymeric lanthanide complexes constructed by 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid

The hydrothermal reaction of YbCl(3) small middle dot6H(2)O with 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic dianhydride resulted in [[Yb((b)btec)(1/4)((d)btec)(3/6)(H(2)O)(2)](4).6H(2)O](n)() (1) (H(4)btec = 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid), and the solvothermal reaction of Er(NO(3))(3) small middle dot6H(2)O or TbCl(3).6H(2)O with 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic dianhydride in H(2)O/acetic acid gave rise to [[Er(2)((c)btec)(2/4)((e)btec)(2/4)((f)btec)(2/4)(H(2)O)(4)].4H(2)O](n)() (2) and [[Tb(H(2)btec)(2/4)((f)btec)(3/6)(H(2)O)].2H(2)O](n)() (3), respectively. Complex 1 crystallizes in monoclinic space group C2/m with a = 20.8119(5) A, b = 17.6174(1) A, c = 5.7252(2) A, beta = 92.324(1) degrees, and Z = 1. 1 possesses a three-dimensional framework consisting of eight-coordinate ytterbium centers and two kinds of channels along the c axis. Complex 2 crystallizes in triclinic space group P with a = 9.6739(5) A, b = 11.0039(5) A, c = 11.5523 A, alpha = 104.8330(10) degrees, beta = 91.0000(10) degrees, gamma = 114.2570(10) degrees, and Z = 2. 2 has a three-dimensional framework comprising both eight- and nine-coordinate erbium centers and channels along the a axis. Complex 3 crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2(1)/n with a = 10.7246(12) A, b = 7.1693(9) A, c = 17.158(2) A, beta = 97.109(2) degrees, and Z = 4. 3 shows a three-dimensional framework containing nine-coordinate terbium centers and channels along the b axis. Uncoordinated water molecules occupy the channels in the three complexes. TGA and XRPD were determined for the three complexes, and the results illustrate that the framework of 1 is retained upon removal of uncoordinated and coordinated water molecules.     

Distinct structures of coordination polymers incorporating flexible triazole-based ligand: topological diversities, crystal structures and property studies

Six new coordination polymers, namely {[Zn(btec)(0.5)(btmb)]·2H(2)O}(n) (1), {[Co(btec)(0.5)(btmb)(H(2)O)]·3H(2)O}(n) (2), {[Cu(btec)(0.5)(btmb)]·H(2)O}(n) (3), {[Cu(4)(btc)(4)(btmb)(4)]·H(2)O}(n) (4), {[Co(3)(bta)(2)(btmb)(2)]·2H(2)O}(n) (5), [Co(Hbta)(btmb)](n) (6) (H(4)btec = 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylate, H(3)btc = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate, H(3)bta = 1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylate and btmb = 4,4'-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)biphenyl), have been successfully synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. All these complexes were structurally determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, IR, TGA and XRD. Crystal structural analysis reveals that 1 is the first example of an unusual 3D framework with (8(6)) topology containing a 2D molecular fabric structure. Complex 2 exhibits a 3D NbO network with (6(4)·8(2)) topology. In 3, Cu(II) ions are coordinated by anti-conformational btmb ligands to form left- and right-handed double helices, which are further bridged by the 4-connected btec(4-) anions to give a 3D porous network. Complex 4 presents a rare 3D gra network structure with (6(3))(6(9)·8) topology. 5 and 6 were obtained through controllable pH values of solution, 5 features a scarce binodal (3,8)-connected tfz-d framework with the trinuclear Co(II) clusters acting as nodes, whereas 6 has an extended 2D 4(4) grid-like layer and the adjacent 2D layers are interconnected by strong hydrogen bonding interactions into a 3D supramolecular framework. The structural diversities indicate that distinct organic acid ligands, the nature of metal ions and the pH value play crucial roles in modulating the formation of the resulting coordination complexes and the connectivity of the ultimate topological nets. Moreover, magnetic susceptibility measurement of 5 indicates the presence of weak ferromagnetic interactions between the Co(II) ions bridged by carboxylate groups.     

Novel silver-containing supramolecular frameworks constructed by combination of coordination bonds and supramolecular interactions

The hydrothermal reactions of AgNO(3), 4,4'-bipy, and carboxylate ligands gave rise to three supramolecular architectures, namely [Ag(bipy)].H(2)SIPA.1/2bipy.H(2)O (1), [Ag(bipy)].1/2H(2)btec.H(2)O (2), and [Ag(bipy)](2).H(2)dpstc.2H(2)O (3) (H(3)SIPA = 5-sulfoisophthalic acid, bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine, H(4)btec = 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid, H(4)dpstc = 3,3',4,4'-tetracarboxydiphenyl sulfone). All complexes are extended from Ag-bipy linear chains by the combination of coordination bonds and supramolecular interactions in two different approaches. Complexes 1 and 3 comprise two-dimensional frameworks. In the two complexes, a one-dimensional ladderlike structure is first formed by the connection of a Ag-bipy chain through hydrogen bonding between a free carboxylate/bipy ligand and weak coordinative interactions between a free carboxylate ligand and silver ion. The ladderlike structure is then extended to a two-dimensional layer architecture by pi...pi interactions between bipy ligands of the Ag-bipy chains. Complex 2 possesses a three-dimensional framework. The free H(2)btec(2)(-) ligands form a two-dimensional layer network by hydrogen-bonding interactions between protonated and deprotonated carboxylate groups; meanwhile, pi.pi interactions between bipy ligands of Ag-bipy chains also result in a two-dimensional layer. The two layers are further connected by weak Ag-O interactions to generate a three-dimensional supramolecular structure.     

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Zinc(Ⅱ)Coordination Polymer Assembled by Dpphen and H_2btec/btec

<正>A new metal-organic coordination polymer[Zn_2(dpphen)_2(H_2btec)(btec)_(0.5)]_n (dpphen=4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline,H_4btec=1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid)1 was obtained via hydrothermal synthesis and characterized by elemental analysis,TG,IR spectrum and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic system,space group P2_l/n with a=16.2996(14),b=14.3332(12),c=25.247(2)(?),β=103.4050(10)°,V=5737.7(9)(?)~3, C_(63)H_(37)N_4O_(12)Zn_2,M_r=1172.71,D_c=1.358 g/cm~3,μ(MoKα)=0.902 mm~(-1),F(000)= 2396,Z=4, the final R=0.0684 and wR=0.1281 for 3728 observed reflections(I2σ(I)).It exhibits a two-dimensional network structure constructed by mixed ligands of dpphen and H_2btec/btec.     

Molecular and multidimensional polyoxotungstates functionalized by {Cu(bpy)}2+ groups

Five new materials built from polyoxotungstates and Cu(ii) ions as linkers have been synthesized by hydrothermal reactions from a mixture of sodium tungstate, copper chloride and bipyridine. The value of the initial pH, the nature of the heteroelement (P or Si) and of the ligand (2,2'- and/or 4,4'-bipyridine) permit the control of the nature of the polyoxotungstate clusters and their connectivity via the copper ions, and hence the dimensionality of the framework. A single phase has been obtained with silicon as heteroelement at an initial pH of 5, namely the 2D material [SiW(12)O(40)][Cu(2,2'-bpy)(2)](2).10H(2)O (1) with saturated Keggin polyoxotungstates linked by {Cu(2,2'-bpy)(2)}(2+) groups. With phosphorous as heteroelement and at the same initial pH, three different structures have been isolated according to the nature of the ligand. Indeed, the two 1D materials [{Cu(5)(2,2'-bpy)(5)(H(2)O)(HPO(4))(PO(4))}PW(11)CuO(39)].6H(2)O (2) with 2,2'-bpy and [4,4'-Hbpy][{Cu(2)(2,2'-bpy)(2)(4,4'-bpy)(2.5)}PW(11)CuO(39)].16H(2)O (3) with a mixture of 2,2'- and 4,4'-bpy have been characterized, and a coordination polymer with polyoxometalate guests Na(3)[4,4'-Hbpy]{Cu(4)(4,4'-bpy)(8)(H(2)O)(8)}[PW(11)CuO(39)(H(2)O)][PW(10)Cu(2)O(38)(H(2)O)(2)].38H(2)O (4) with 4,4'-bpy has been obtained. Finally, in basic medium (pH = 10) the unprecedented molecular cluster Na(2)[{Cu(8)(2,2'-bpy)(8)}(PW(8)O(31))(2)].15H(2)O (5) has been evidenced. Magnetic studies of compound 2 revealed that the predominant interactions involve only 4 paramagnetic centers, which are interacting within pairs, among the 6 Cu(ii) centers. The chi(M)T=f(T) curve can be fitted using the dinuclear expression appropriate to the HDVV isotropic exchange Hamiltonian H=-JS(1)xS(2), with S(1)=S(2)=(1/2) and J=-105.4 cm(-1), showing strong antiferromagnetic interactions within the two Cu(ii) pairs.     

Crystal structure and magnetic properties of two isomeric three-dimensional pyromellitate-containing cobalt(II) complexes

The hydrothermal preparation, crystal structure determination, and magnetic study of two isomers made up of 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylate and high-spin Co(II) ions of formula [Co2(bta)(H2O)4]n x 2n H2O (1 and 2; H4bta = 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid) are reported. 1 and 2 are three-dimensional compounds whose structures can be described as (4,4) rectangular layers of trans-diaquacobalt(II) units with the bta(4-) anion acting as tetrakis-monodentate ligand through the four carboxylate groups, which are further connected through other trans-[Co(H2O)2](2+) (1) and planar [Co(H2O)4](2+) (2) entities, with the bridging units being a carboxylate group in either the anti-syn (1) or syn-syn (2) conformations and a water molecule (2). The study of the magnetic properties of 1 and 2 in the temperature range 1.9-300 K shows the occurrence of weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the high-spin Co(II) ions, with the strong decrease of chi(M)T upon cooling being mainly due to the depopulation of the higher energy Kramers doublets of the six-coordinated Co(II) ions. The computed values of the exchange coupling between the Co(II) ions across anti-syn carboxylate (1) and syn-syn carboxylate/water (2) bridges are J = -0.060 (1) and -1.90 (2) cm(-1) (with the Hamiltonian being defined as H = -Jsigma(i,j)S(i) x S(j)). These values follow the different conformations of the carboxylate bridge in 1 (anti-syn) and 2 (syn-syn) with the occurrence of a double bridge in 2 (water/carboxylate).     

Metal-organic frameworks constructed from 2,4,6-Tris(4-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine

Five new metal-organic frameworks based on 2,4,6-tris(4-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine (tpt) ligand have been hydrothermally synthesized. Reaction of tpt and AgNO 3 in an acidic solution at 180 degrees C yields {[Ag(Htpt)(NO3)]NO(3).4H2O}n (1).Ag(I) is trigonally coordinated by two pyridyl nitrogen and one nitrato oxygen to form a 1D zigzag chain. Reaction of tpt with CuSO4 affords {[Cu2(tpt)2(SO4)2(H2O)2].4H2O}n (2). Copper(II) is bonded to two pyridyl nitrogen, two sulfato oxygen, and two water oxygen atoms to form an elongated octahedral geometry. Each H2O ligand bridges two copper(II), whereas sulfate bridges copper(II) via micro-1,3 and micro-1,1 fashions. The copper(II)-sulfate-H2O2D layers are linked by bidentate tpt to form a 3D polymeric structure. Reaction of Cu(SO4)2, tpt, and 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid (H4btec) in the presence of piperidine gives [Cu(tpt)(H2btec)1/2]n (3). Copper(I) is located in a trigonal-pyramidal coordination environment and coordinated by three pyridyl nitrogen of tpt in a plane, whereas a carboxylate oxygen is coordinated to the copper(I) axially. The tpt-Cu forms a layer, and the layers are linked through H 2btec2- to form a 2D double-layered coordination polymer. Replacing CuSO4 with ZnI2 in the synthesis gives {[Zn(tpt)(btec)1/2].H2O}n (4). Zinc(II) is in a distorted tetrahedral geometry and linked through bidentate tpt and exotetradentate btec4- to form a 2D coordination grid. Reaction of tpt with CuCN leads to the assembly of a 3D metal-organic framework [Cu3(CN)3(tpt)]n (5). Copper(I) is trigonally coordinated by one pyridyl nitrogen and two cyanides to form an intriguing honeycomb architecture. Luminescence study shows that 1, 3, 4, and 5 have blue fluorescence, which can be assigned to be ligand-centered emissions. Thermal analysis shows that all of these complexes are quite stable, and especially for 4, the framework is stable up to 430 degrees C.     

Solvothermal syntheses and crystal structures of two metal coordination polymers with double-chain structures

Two polymeric complexes, [Cu₂(btec)(phen)₂]_n·(H₂O)_n (1) and [Cd₄(btec)₂(phen)₄(H₂O)₄]_n (2) (H₄btec=1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid; PHEN=1,10-phenanthroline), were synthesized by solvothermal reactions at 140 °C. 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. The ESR spectra study of complex 1 shows that there is negligibly small long-range super-exchange interactions between the Cu(II) atoms via benzenecarboxylate bridging.     

A Three-dimensional Supramolecular Complex {[Co(H2btec)(2,2'-bipy)(H2O)3]·H2O}n Assembled via Hydrogen Bonding and π-π Stacking Interactions

A new cobalt compound, {[Co(H2btec)(2,2'-bipy)(H2O)3]·H2O}n (1, H4btec =1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid, 2,2'-bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine), has been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, IR and X-ray powder diffraction. The crystal belongs to the triclinic system, space group P-1, with a = 7.230(3), b = 11.626(5), c =14.001(6) (A), α = 108.12(0)°, β= 95.85(0)°, V= 1095.33(157)(A)3, C20H20CoN2O12, Mr= 539.31,Z=2, Dc = 1.635 g/cm3,μ = 0.855 mm-1, F(000) = 554, R = 0.0427 and wR = 0.1042 for 3883 observed reflections (Ⅰ ＞ 2σ(Ⅰ)). The title compound features a discrete molecular structure, which is connected with each other through extensive O-H…O hydrogen bonds into an intricate 3D supramolecular network. Additionally, two different patterns of π-π stacking interactions further consolidate the framework.     

Co5(mu3-OH)2(btec)2(bpp)]n: a three-dimensional homometallic molecular metamagnet built from the mixed hydroxide/carboxylate-bridged ferrimagnetic-like chains

A three-dimensional homometallic complex [Co(5)(mu(3)-OH)(2)(btec)(2)(bpp)](n) is built from the mixed hydroxide/carboxylate bridged cobalt(ii) chains linked by the 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylate (btec(4-)) anion and 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)-propane molecule (bpp). Within each chain, two mu(3)-OH-bridged metal triangles connect to each other by sharing a common vertex to give rise to a bow-tie type Co(5)(mu(3)-OH)(2) subunit, which is joined to adjacent subunits by four mu(1,1)-carboxylate bridges to form a step-like metal-oxygen backbone. The magnetic studies revealed that the coexistence of ferromagnetic and antiferrimagnetic interactions resulted in a ferrimagnetic-like behavior of the homometallic chains. Below a critical temperature (T(N) = 12.5 K), bulk antiferromagnetic ordering was observed at low field due to the weak interchain antiferromagnetic interactions. A metamagnetic transition occurred at a magnetic field of ca. 5 kOe at 2 K.     

Extended three-dimensional supramolecular architectures derived from trinuclear (bis-beta-diketonato)copper(II) metallocycles

Neutral trinuclear (triangular) copper(II) complexes of type [Cu3L3] incorporating the 1,4-aryl linked bis-beta-diketonato bridging ligands, 1,1-(1,4-phenylene)-bis(butane-1,3-dione) (H2L2), 1,1-(1,4-phenylene)-bis(pentane-1,3-dione) (H2L3) and 1,1-(1,4-phenylene)-bis(4,4-dimethylpentane-1,3-dione) (H2L4) have been demonstrated to react with selected heterocyclic nitrogen donor bases to generate extended supramolecular architectures whose structures have been confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Thus on reaction with 4,4'-bipyridine (bipy), [Cu3(L2)3] yields polymeric structures of type {[Cu3(L2)3(bipy)(THF)] x 2.75THF}n and {[Cu3(L2)3(bipy)(THF)] x bipy x 0.75THF}(n) while with pyrazine (pyz), {[Cu3(L2)3(pyz)] x 0.5THF}n was obtained. Each of these extended structures contain alternating triangle/linker units in a one-dimensional polymeric chain arrangement in which two of the three copper sites in each triangular 'platform' are formally five-coordinate through binding to a heterocyclic nitrogen atom. Interaction of the multifunctional linker unit hexamethylenetetramine (hmt) with [Cu3(L3)3] afforded an unusual, chiral, three-dimensional molecular framework of stoichiometry [Cu3(L3)3(hmt)]n. The latter incorporates the trinuclear units coordinated to three triply bridging hmt units. In marked contrast to the formation of the above structures incorporating bifunctional linker units and five-coordinate metal centres, the trinuclear platform [Cu3(L2)3] reacts with the stronger difunctional base 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]-octane (dabco) to yield a highly symmetric trigonal columnar species of type {[Cu3(L4)3(dabco)3] x 3H2O}n in which each copper centre is octahedrally coordinated.     

4,4'-Bipyridazine: a new twist for the synthesis of coordination polymers

A new polydentate ligand 4,4'-bipyridazine (4,4'-bpdz) was prepared by employing inverse electron demand cycloaddition of 1,2,4,5-tetrazine. A unique combination of structural simplicity, ampolydentate character and efficient donor properties towards Cu(I), Cu(II) and Zn(II) provide wide new possibilities for the synthesis of coordination polymers incorporating the 4,4'-bpdz module either as a bi-, tri- or tetradentate connector between the metal ions. 1D coordination polymers Cu(2)(4,4'-bpdz)(CH(3)CO(2))(4) x 4H(2)O and Zn(4,4'-bpdz)(NO(3))(2), and interpenetrated (4,4)-nets in [Cu(4,4'-bpdz)(2)(H(2)O)(2)]S(2)O(6) were closely related to 4,4'-bipyridine compounds. 1D "ladder-like" polymer Cu(2)(4,4'-bpdz)(3)(CF(3)CO(2))(4) and the unprecedented 3D binodal net ({8(6)}{6(3);8(3)}) in [Cu(3)(4,4'-bpdz)(6)(H(2)O)(4)](BF(4))(6) x 6H(2)O were based upon a combination of linear and angular organic bridges. Complex [Cu(3)(OH)(2)(4,4'-bpdz)(3)(H(2)O)(2){CF(3)CO(2)}(2)](CF(3)CO(2))(2) x 2H(2)O has a "NbO-like" 3D topology incorporating discrete dihydroxotricopper(II) clusters linked by tri- and tetradentate ligands. The tetradentate function of the 4,4'-bpdz ligand was especially relevant for copper(I) complexes, which adopt layered Cu(2)X(2)(4,4'-bpdz) (X = Cl, Br) or 3D chiral framework (X = I) structures based upon infinite (CuX)(n) chains. The electron deficient character of the ligand was manifested by short anion-pi interactions (O-pi 3.02-3.20; Cl-pi 3.35 A), which may be involved as a factor for controlling the supramolecular structure.     

Co-ligand-directed structural and magnetic diversities in an anisotropic Co(II)-triazolate system

Three novel 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole (Hdatrz)-based Co(II) coordination complexes, [Co(Hdatrz)(0.5)(H(2)O)(2)(btec)(0.5)](n) (1), {[Co(Hdatrz)(Hbtc)]·H(2)O}(n) (2) and [Co(2)(datrz)(2)(nb)(2)](n) (3) (H(4)btec = 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid, H(3)btc = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid and Hnb = 4-nitrobenzoic acid), were synthesized by incorporating different carboxylate-containing co-ligands and then were structurally and magnetically characterized. Complex 1 is a 3D pillared-layer framework with corrugated Co(II)-btec(4-) layers supported by neutral μ(2)-N1, N4-Hdatrz ligands. In contrast, the other two complexes are chiral (4, 4)- and racemic (4, 8(2))-topological layers with asymmetric μ(2)-N1, N4-Hdatrz-bridged helical chains extended by bis-monodentate Hbtc(2-) ligands for 2 and with a μ(3)-N1, N2, N4-datrz((-)) aggregated Shastry-Sutherland magnetic layer for 3. More interestingly, different magnetic phenomena with a field-induced metamagnetic transition from antiferromagnetic ordering to a ferromagnetic state for 1, spin-canted antiferromagnetism with a T(N) lower than 2.0 K for 2, as well as the coexistence of spin frustration and spin-flop transitions for 3 were observed, which, significantly, are governed by the local low-dimensional magnetic motifs mediated by the carboxylate and/or triazolate heterobridges in the anisotropic Co(II)-triazolate system.     

New two-dimensional metal-organic networks constructed from 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylate and chelate ligands

Two novel nickel coordination polymers [Ni(2)(2,2'-bipy)(2)(OH)(2)(H(2)btec)](3)(n)(1) and [Ni(2)(1,10'-phen)(2)(H(2)O)(2)(btec)](n)(2) (btec = 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylate) have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR and XPS spectra, TG analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal data for 1: C(90)H(66)N(12)O(30)Ni(6), monoclinic P2(1)/c, a = 10.905(2) A, b = 18.006(4) A, c = 20.551(4) A, beta = 94.91(3) degrees, Z = 2. Crystal data for 2: C(34)H(22)N(4)O(10)Ni(2), monoclinic P2(1)/n, a = 10.122(2) A, b = 9.3106(19) A, c = 15.690(3) A, beta = 92.03(3) degrees, Z = 2. Compound 1 exhibits a novel one-dimensional chainlike structure, in which the dinuclear Ni centers are linked by the btec ligands. Furthermore, the adjacent chains are linked into a 2-D wavelike layer via the strong OH.O hydrogen bonding interactions. Compound 2 possesses an unusual two-dimensional steplike network with interesting rhombic grids. Both compounds exhibit unprecedented metal-organic ligand construction modes in [M/btec/L] (M = transition metal; L = chelate ligands) systems. The magnetic behaviors of compounds 1 and 2 have been studied.     

Solvothermal Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Luminescent Property of a Dy（Ⅲ） Coordination Polymer Constructed by 1,2,4,5-Benzenetetracarboxylic Acid

A three-dimensional coordination polymer {[Dy(H2btec)2/4(btec)3/6(H2O)]·2H2O} n has been synthesized through the reaction of DyCl3·6H2O and 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid by solvothermal technique, and the crystal structure was determined by X-ray diffraction. The Dy(Ⅲ) coordination polymer crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/n with a=10.7063(1), b=7.1491(1), c=17.1197(3), α=90, β=97.10, γ=90°, V=1300.31(3)3 , C10H9DyO11 , Dc=2.389g/cm3 , Z=4, F(000)=892, the final R=0.0165 and wR=0.0448 for I > 2σ(I). The title coordination polymer possesses a three-dimensional framework consisting of nine-coordinate Dy(Ⅲ) centers and two kinds of coordination modes for the 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid ligands. Every btec4- ligand (deprotonated four protons from 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid) in the title coordination polymer can clamp three Dy atoms like forceps, which could make the Dy atoms closer in the area of metal-metal interaction. The 3-D framework of the coordination polymer has many channels occupied by the free guest water molecules, and the hydrogen bonds between the coordinated carboxylic groups and guest water molecules could stabilize the crystal structure of the title coordination polymer. In addition, the luminescence properties were also studied.     

Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Characterization of a New Manganese(Ⅱ)Tetracarboxylate

By hydrothermal synthesis,a manganese(Ⅱ)tetracarboxylate [Mn(2,2'-bipyridi-ne)btec)o.5(H2O)]2n(H4btec=1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid)was obtained and characteri-zed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction,IR,elemental analysis and thermogravimetrie analysis.It crystallizes in triclinic,space group P(1),with a=7.721(4),b=8.905(5),c=10.712(6)(A),α=80.899(8),β=70.371(8),γ=78.201(8)°,z=2,V=675.8(7)(A)3,Mr=354.20,Dc=1.741 g/cm3,μ=1.007mm-1,F(000)=360,S=0.956,(△/σ)max=0.000,the final R=0.0490 and wR=0.1262.This compound presents an infinite 1D polymer featuring a double-chain structure.The Mn(Ⅱ)ion is five-coordinated.The four carboxylate groups of btec4- are all deprotonated and coordinated to four Mn atoms in a monodentate fashion,forming a 1D double chain structure with a cavity.Such chains are interconnected by π-π stacking interactions into 2D layers which are further interlinked into a supramolecular structure by hydrogen bonds.     

N-heterocyclic amine-directed structures and properties of two Cu(II) diphosphonates

By introducing the second organic N-heterocyclic ligands 4'-(4-pyridyl)-4,2':6',4'-terpyridine (pyterpy) and 4,4'-bipyridyl (4,4'-bipy), two examples of Cu(II)-diphosphonates, [Cu(3)(HL)(2)(Hpyterpy)(2)]·2H(2)O 1 and [Cu(4)(HL)(2)(4,4'-bipy)(H(2)O)(5)] 2 based on 1-hydroxyethylidenediphosphonic acid (H(5)L = CH(3)C(OH)(PO(3)H(2))(2)), have been hydrothermally obtained and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, IR, TG-DSC. The single-crystal X-ray diffractions reveal that compound 1 has a one-dimensional fishbone-like chain constructed by anions [Cu(3)(HL)(2)(2-)](n) while simultaneously organic cations [Hpyterpy(+)](n) suspending both sides, and compound 2 exhibits two-dimensional inorganic-organic alternate arrangement layer built from 1-D ladder-like inorganic chain with tetranuclear cluster [Cu(4)O(10)] via 4,4'-bipy linkage. The results of electrochemical measurements indicate half-wave potential of 1 (E(1/2)(1) = 1.01 V) is less than that of 2 (E(1/2)(2) = 1.20 V), indicating a good D-A system in ICT for 1. Moreover fluorescent measurements reveal that emission intensity of 1 centered at 422 nm is larger than that of 2 emitted at 420 nm, caused by intraligand π*-π emission state of organic N-heterocyclic amine (λ(ex) = 233 nm). Magnetism data indicate that compound 1 exhibits ferrimagnetic interactions between metal centers, while compound 2 has antiferromagnetic property.

Polymeric networks of copper(II) using succinate and aromatic N-N donor ligands: synthesis, crystal structure, magnetic behaviour and the effect of weak interactions on their crystal packing

Four succinato-bridged complexes of copper(II) have been synthesized. Complex 1, [Cu(2)(mu-OH(2))(2)L(bpy)(2)(NO(3))(2)](n) and 2, [Cu(2)(mu-OH(2))(2)L(phen)(2)(NO(3))(2)](n)(bpy = 2,2[prime or minute]-bipyridine; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and LH(2)= succinic acid) exhibit 1D coordination polymer structures where both the nitrate ions are directly linked to the copper(ii) producing synthons in a 2D sheet. A novel 2D grid-like network, ([Cu(4)L(2)(bpy)(4)(H(2)O)(2)](ClO(4))(4)(H(2)O))n3, is obtained upon changing the nitrate by perchlorate anion in complex 1, where the channels are occupied by the anions. On changing the nitrate by tetrafluoroborate anion in complex 2, a novel octanuclear complex, [Cu(8)L(4)(phen)(12)](BF(4))(8).8H(2)O 4, is isolated. The coligand bpy and phen in these complexes show face-to-face (in 1,2,3,4) or edge-to-face (in 4 )pi-pi interactions forming the multidimensional supramolecular architectures. Interestingly, the appearance of edge-to-face pi-pi interactions in complex facilitates the formation of discrete octanuclear entities. Variable-temperature (300-2 K) magnetic measurements of complexes have been done. Complexes 1 and 2 show very weak antiferromagnetic (OOC-CH(2)-CH(2)-COO) and ferromagnetic coupling (mu-H(2)O). Complex 3 also shows antiferromagnetic (syn-syn mu-OCO), and ferromagnetic coupling (mu-O of the -COO group). Complex 4 with two types (syn-syn and syn-anti) of binding modes of the carboxylate group shows strong antiferromagnetic interaction.
