Hydrothermal syntheses,crystal structures,and properties of two new coordination polymers constructed from a flexible pyridinecarboxylate ligand

Two new coordination polymers with the same topological structure [Zn(L)]_2n·n(H₂O) (1) and [Co(L)]_2n·n(H₂O) (2) (H₂L = 5-(pyridin-2-ylmethoxy)-isophthalic acid) have been hydrothermally synthesized by reactions of metal salts and H₂L. Single-crystal X-ray analyses reveal that 1 and 2 are isostructural and crystallize in orthorhombic chiral P2₁2₁2 space group. These compounds feature 2-D undulated layer structures with (3,6)-connected kgd topology, which further extended into a 3-D supramolecular framework via intermolecular hydrogen bonds. In addition, the luminescent properties of 1 and 2 and the magnetic property of 2 were also investigated.     

Hydrothermal syntheses,and crystal structures of new lanthanide coordination polymers with nitrilotriacetic acid

Hydrothermal reactions of Nd(ClO₄)₃·6H₂O, Gd(ClO₄)₃·6H₂O and Er₂O₃ with H₃NTA (nitrilotriacetic acid) afford three new lanthanide coordination polymers, {[Nd(NTA)(H₂O)]· 2H₂O} _n (1), {[Gd(NTA)(H₂O)]·2H₂O} _n (2) and {[Er(NTA)(H₂O)]·H₂O} _n (3), characterized by elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy. X-ray single crystal structural analyses showed that 1 and 2 are an isomorphous 2D-layered framework containing the nine-coordinated Nd(III) (or Gd(III)), and woven into a 3D suprastructure by interlayer hydrogen bonding while 3 is a 3D structure with eight-coordinate Er(III).

Four novel cadmium-btx (btx = 1,4-bis(triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene) coordination polymers [Cd(btx)(2)(NO(3))(2)](n)(1), [Cd(btx)(2)Cl(2)](n)(2), [Cd(btx)(SO(4))(H(2)O)(2)](n)(3), and [Cd(btx)(S(2)O(7))(H(2)O)](n)(4) have been prepared by hydrothermal reaction (140 or 180 degrees C) and characterized. Both 1 and 2 have two-dimensional rhombohedral grid structures, 3 possesses a two-dimensional rectangular grid structure, and 4 displays a three-dimensional framework, which is formed by btx bridging parallel layers. To the author's best knowledge, polymer 4 is the first Cd(II) polymer in which the Cd(II) ion is eight-coordinated in a hexagonal bipyrimidal geometry. In addition, we studied the effects of temperature on the hydrothermal reaction system of btx and CdSO(4) and found that different products can be obtained at different temperatures. Furthermore, polymer 3 possesses a very strong third-order NLO absorptive effect with an alpha(2) value of 1.15 x 10(-)(9) m W(-1). Polymers 2-4 display strong fluorescent emissions in the solid state at room temperature. The DTA and TGA results of the four polymers are in agreement with the crystal structures.     

Hydrothermal syntheses,crystal structures,and photocatalytic properties of two Co(II) complexes with the flexible citraconic acid

Two Co(II) coordination polymers, [Co(ca)(bib)]_n ( I ) and {[Co(ca)(bibp)_1.5]·1.5H₂O} _n ( II ) (H₂ca = citraconic acid, bib = 1,4-bis(1-imidazoly)benzene, bibp = 1,4-bis-[4-(imidazol-1-yl)benzyl]piperazine), were prepared by hydrothermal method and measured structurally by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Complex I shows a 2D layer structure containing Co-carboxylate chains. Complex II displays a 3D metal–organic framework composed of the binuclear [Co₂(CO₂)₂]²⁺ cluster nodes through ca²⁻ and bibp as linkers with (4¹²·6³) topology. Complexes I and II have high thermal stabilities because their frameworks maintain good integrity before 340°C and 265°C, respectively. Both complexes show well photocatalytic activities for methylene blue degradation under UV irradiation in the presence of H₂O₂, which may be used as potential materials for photocatalytic dyes degradation.     

Hydrothermal syntheses, crystal structures and magnetic properties of two copper(II) complexes involved in situ ligand synthesis

The hydrothermal reaction of Cu(NO(3))(2), isophthalate (ip) and 2,2'-bipyridine (2,2'-bpy) without or with K(2)Cr(2)O(7) affords different complexes, whose structures are controlled only by the addition of the K(2)Cr(2)O(7). The reaction of Cu(NO(3))(2), isophthalate and 2,2'-bipyridine yields a novel one-dimensional double-chain coordination polymer [Cu(3)(ip)(2)(Hipa)(2)(bpy)(2)](n) (1). However, with the addition of K(2)Cr(2)O(7) in the above reaction at the same hydrothermal conditions, a discrete hexanuclear Cu(II) complex [Cu(6)(ipO)(4)(2,2'-bpy)(2)(H(2)O)(2)].6H(2)O (2) (ipOH = 2-hydroxyisophthalate) was isolated. It is interesting to find that the in situ reaction of isophthalate (ip) oxidized to 2-hydroxyisophthalate (ipOH) occurs. K(2)Cr(2)O(7) acts as an oxidant. The magnetic properties of 1 and 2 have been investigated by variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility and magnetization measurements, and the results reveal that intramolecular ferromagnetic interactions exist with weak intermolecular antiferromagnetic interactions at very low temperature in 1 and weak antiferromagnetic interactions admixture with strong ferromagnetic interactions in 2.

Each Ln(III) is nine-coordinate with two carboxylate oxygens from two hfga ligands, three oxygens from water and four nitrogens from two phen molecules. Two carboxylate groups of one hfga adopt monodentate coordination to Ln(III) as a long bidentate bridge linking two Ln(III) ions to form a dimer. Ln(III) ··· Ln(III) distances of 9.027(3) Å for 1 and 9.043(3) Å for 2 were observed.

Complex 1 has two-dimensional (4,4) topological layer constructed by [CuBr]n chains and Cu(pzc)2(H2O) species, while 2 has a three-dimensional framework formed by linkage of two-dimensional (6,3) layers via ligand-unsupported Cu(I)-Cu(I) interactions. The two-dimensional (6,3) layer in 2 is constructed by zigzag [CuCN]n chains and Cu(pzc)2(H2O)2 species. Cyanides in 2 were produced by oxidative desulfation of SCN- anions.

Polymer 1 is a chain with 2,2′-bipy appending in the same side. Polymer 2 is a 2D rhombus grid structure. The π?π interactions between the aromatic groups supply the additional stabilisation for the solid-state structures of 1 and 2. Polymer 3 shows a 3D framework bearing 1D open channels. Polymer 4 exhibits a 2D latticed plane. The thermal and photoluminescence properties of 1–4 have been investigated as well.
