Syntheses and Structures of Three New Copper(II) Coordination Polymers Involving 2, 2‐(4, 6‐Dinitro‐1, 3‐phenylenedioxy)­diacetic Acid

Three copper(II) coordination polymers, namely, {[CuL(H₂O)₂] · 4H₂O}_n( 1 ), [CuL(H₂O)(DMF)]_n( 2 ), and [CuL(2, 2′‐bipy)(DMSO)] · DMSO ( 3 ) [H₂L = 2, 2′‐(4, 6‐dinitro‐1, 3‐phenyl‐enedioxy)diacetic acid] were synthesized in different solvents (H₂O, DMF, and DMSO). X‐ray single crystal diffraction studies show that both complexes 1 and 3 belong to triclinic crystal system and P$\bar{1}$ space group and complex 2 belongs to the monoclinic crystal system and P2₁/c space group. In three complexes, all the central Cu^II ions coordinate with the ligand, forming a square pyramidal configuration. Both complexes 1 and 2 show similar 1D chain‐like structure and the chains are further connected by hydrogen bonds, forming 3D frameworks. Complex 3 exhibits a 0D structure due to the introduction of the ligand 2, 2′‐bipy. In addition, the luminescence properties of these complexes were investigated.     

Structural variation from linear,layer to 3D framework: Syntheses,structures and luminescence

Self‐assembly of Zn (II) or Cd (II) nitrates, flexible bis (pyridyl)‐diamine, as well as arenesulfonic acids, leads to the formation of ten coordination polymers, namely, [Zn(L1)(H₂O)₃]·2(p‐TS)·2H₂O ( 1 ), [Zn(L1)(H₂O)₂]·2(p‐TS)·2H₂O ( 2 ), [Zn(L1)₂(p‐TS)₂] ( 3 ), [Zn(H₂L1)(H₂O)₄]·2(1,5‐NDS)·2H₂O ( 4 ), [Zn(H₂L2)(H₂O)₄]·2(1,5‐NDS)·4MeOH ( 5 ), [Cd(L1)(p‐TS)(NO₃)]·H₂O ( 6 ), [Cd(L1)(1,5 ‐NDS)_0.5(H₂O)]·0.5(1,5‐NDS)·H₂O ( 7 ), [Cd(L2)(H₂O)₂]·(p‐TS)·(NO₃)·3H₂O ( 8 ), [Cd(L2)(1,5‐NDS)] ( 9 ) and [Cd(L2)(1,5‐NDS)]·MeOH ( 10 ) (L1 = N,N′‐bis (pyridin‐4‐ylmethyl) ethane‐1,2‐diamine, L2 = N,N′‐bis (pyridin‐3‐ylmethy l)ethane‐1,2‐diamine, p‐HTS = p‐toluenesulfonic acid, 1,5‐H₂NDS = 1,5‐naphthalene disulfonic acid), which have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, TG, PL, powder and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Complexes 1 , 4 , 5 and 6 present linear or zigzag chain structures accomplished by the interconnection of adjacent M (II) cations through L1 ligands or protonated H₂L1²⁺/H₂L2²⁺ cations, while complexes 2 , 3 and 8 show similar (4,4) layer motifs constructed from the connection of M (II) cations through L1 and L2. The same coordination modes of L1 and L2 in complexes 7 and 9 join adjacent Cd (II) cations to form double chain structures, which are further connected by bis‐monodentate 1,5‐NDS^2? dianions into different (6,3) and (4,4) layer motifs. The L2 molecules in complex 10 join adjacent Cd (II) cations together with 1,5‐NDS^2? dianions to form 3D network with hxl topology. Therefore, the diverse coordination modes of the bis (pyridyl) ligand with chelating spacer and the feature of different arenesulfonate anions can effectively influence the architectures of these complexes. Luminescent investigation reveals that the emission maximum of these complexes varies from 374 to 448 nm in the solid state at room temperature, in which complexes 4 , 5 , 7 , 9 and 10 show average luminescence lifetimes from 7.20 to 14.82 ns. Moreover, photocatalytic properties of complexes 7–10 towards Methylene blue under Xe lamp irradiation are also discussed.     

Novel Copper(II) Thiodibenzoic Acid Coordination Polymers by in situ Extrusion of Sulfur from 2,2′‐Dithiodibenzoic Acid and the Unique Oxidation of Disulfide to Sulfate

Slow diffusion reaction of 2,2′‐dithiodibenzoic acid (dtdb) with CuCl₂ in the presence of N‐donor ligands results in the formation of different coordination polymers where both S–S and C–S scission and oxidation of S is observed. X‐ray diffraction analysis of [Cu(tdb)(phen)(H₂O)]₂ · 2H₂O.2DMF] ( 1 ), [Cu(tdb)(py)₂(H₂O)]₂ ( 3 ), and [Cu(tdb)(bipy)(H₂O)]₂ · 0.5H₂O ( 4 ) (tdb = thiodibenzoic acid, phen = phenanthroline, py = pyridine, bipy = 2,2′‐bipyridine) show that the metal ions are coordinated to the carboxylate oxygen atoms of the in situ generated tdb ligand in a monodenate fashion. In [Cu(phen)(SO₄)₂(H₂O)₂]_n ( 2 ) and [Cu(bipy)(SO₄)₂(H₂O)₂]_n ( 5 ), the sulfur is oxidized to sulfate ions prior to coordination with the metal. Complex 1 has a dimeric structure with π–π interactions between the phen ligands, whereas 3 and 4 form 1D polymeric chains.     

Hydrothermal Synthesis,Structural Characterization,Magnetic and Photoelectric Properties of Two Cobalt(II) Coordination Polymers

Two cobalt(II) coordination polymers, {[Co(μ‐4,4′‐bipy)(4,4′‐bipy)₂(H₂O)₂]·(OH)₃·(Me₄N)·4,4′‐bipy·4H₂O}_n ( 1 ) and {[Co(μ‐4,4′‐bipy)(H₂O)₄]·suc·4H₂O}_n ( 2 ) (4,4′‐bipy = 4,4′‐bipyridine, suc = succinate dianions), were hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by X‐ray diffraction analysis, UV‐Vis‐NIR, and ICP. The main structure feature common to the both polymers is presence of the infinite linear chains, [Co(μ‐4,4′‐bipy)(4,4′‐bipy)₂(H₂O)₂]_n ( 1 ) and [Co(μ‐4,4′‐bipy)(H₂O)₄]_n ( 2 ), respectively. In 1 , the chains are further linked by the hydrogen‐bond and π‐π stacking interaction, producing extended layer structure. The 4,4′‐bipy molecules in 1 play three different roles. In 2 , the chains are linked into three‐dimensional network structure via complicated hydrogen bonding system. The variable temperature (2.0～300 K) magnetic susceptibility of 1 indicates a tendency of spin‐transition in the temperature range of 110 K to 22 K, which attributes to the transition of high‐spin to low‐spin from Co²⁺(d⁷) ion. Also, the result of surface photovoltage spectroscopy (SPS) reveals that the polymer 1 has significant photoelectric conversion property in the region of 300‐800 nm.

The rare‐earth cations have the coordination numbers 10 ( 1 ), 8 + 1 ( 2 ) and 9 ( 3 ). The individual polyhedra are connected to chains and further to sheets in 1 and 2 and to double chains in 3 . Only in the water‐rich compound 1 there are channels that contain crystal water molecules. It, therefore, has a considerably lower density than 2 and 3 .

The structures of four compounds with building blocks containing these ligands are reported: In [BaCr₂(bipy)₂(1, 2‐dtox)₄(H₂O)₂] Barium ions and pairs of Cr(bipy)(1, 2‐dtox)₂ complexes form linear chains by the bisbidentate coordination of the dithiooxalate ligands towards Ba²⁺ and Cr³⁺.

In [Ni(cyclam)Mn(1, 2‐dtsq)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O the 1, 2‐dithiosquarato ligand shows a rare example of S‐coordination towards manganese(II). The sulfur atoms of cis‐MnO₂S₄‐polyedra are weakly coordinated towards the axial sites of square‐planar NiN₄‐centers, thus forming a zig‐zag‐chain of Mn···Ni···Mn···Ni polyhedra. [H₃O][H₅O₂][Cu (cyclam)]₃[Cu₂(1, 2‐dtsq)₃]₂ contains square planar [Cu^II(cyclam)]²⁺ ions and dinuclear [Cu^I₂(1, 2‐dtsq)₃]^4— ions.

Four novel mixed‐ligand complexes were obtained from the reaction of maleic acid, diimine chelating ligands and Cd(OH)₂ or CdO in a mixed solvent of water and methanol. The complexes were characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The results show that all the four complexes are coordination polymers. [Cd(phen)(H₂O)(male)]_n · 2nH₂O ( 1 ) and [Cd(bipy)(H₂O)(male)]_n · 2nH₂O ( 2 ) (male = maleate; phen = 1, 10‐phenanthroline, bipy = 2, 2′‐bipyridine) are isomorphic, and the asymmetric unit is constructed by one Cd^II atom, a maleate group, a diimine ligand and two crystal water molecules. Each maleate group links two Cd^II atoms in a bis(bidentate) chelating mode, resulting in a 1D helical chain. Within [Cd(phen)(H₂O)₂(male)]_n · 2nH₂O ( 3 ), the maleate group bridges two Cd^II atoms in a bis(monodentate) chelating mode into a 1D helical chain along the [100] direction. The helical chain is decorated by phen groups alternatively at the two sides, and each phen plane of one chain is inserted in the void space between two adjacent phen ligands from an adjacent chain, resulting in a double zipper‐like chain. The asymmetric unit of [Cd₂(phen)₂(male)₂]_n ( 4 ) contains a Cd^II cation, one phen molecule, and a maleate group, and one bridging maleate group links three Cd^II atoms resulting in a 2D layer extending in [011] plane. The 2D networks are constructed by four kinds of rings formed by the central metal atom and maleate dianion. The thermostabilities of the four complexes were investigated.

The chelating organic ligands of 2,2’-bipyridine (2,2’-bipy), di(pyrid-2-yl)amine (dpa) and 2,6-di(pyrid-2-ylamino)pyridine (dpap) were respectively applied to react with H2fum (fumaric acid) and copper salts, affording three different complexes [Cu2(fum)(2,2’-bipy)4]•2ClO4 (1), [Cu2(µ-OH)2(fum)(dpa)2]•2H2O (2) and [Cu(SO4)(H2O)(dpap)]•H2O (3). These complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Each penta-coordinated Cu(II) ion exhibits a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry in 1. The fum ligand links copper ions to form a dinuclear copper unit. While in 2, the fum ligands connect [Cu2(µ-OH)2(dpa)2] unit to construct a 1D zigzag chain. Unexpectedly, when dpap instead of dpa was used under the same conditions, only one mononuclear complex 3 was formed. Crystal packings show that 1—3 form 3D supramolecular architectures through non-covalent interactions (multiple hydrogen bonds and C—H…π/π-π interactions). In addition, the study of the magnetic property reveals dominating ferromagnetic interactions between Cu(II) atoms in 1.
