Synthesis, structure, and magnetism of three azido-bridged Co2+ compounds with a flexible coligand 1,2-(tetrazole-1-yl)ethane

By utilizing suitable coligand endi (1,2-(tetrazole-1-yl)ethane)) with variable conformations, we synthesized three new azido-bridged Co(2+) compounds with molecular formulas Co(endi)(N3)2 (1, 3) and Co(endi)2(N3)2 (2) by tuning the stoichiometric ratio of ligand/metal and the concentration of the solution. All of the compounds have been characterized structurally and magnetically. In all three structures, the azide ions use the end-to-end mode to link the Co(2+) centers to the 1D chain (1) and 2D (4,4) layers (2 and 3). The endi coligands adopt a trans conformation in compound 1 and a gauche conformation in compounds 2 and 3. Linked by bridging endi, the 1D chains in compound 1 and 2D layers in compound 3 are extended, resulting in the final 2D layer for compound 1 and the 3D network for compound 3, whereas in compound 2, the endi acts as only a terminal ligand to separate the 2D layers. Compound 1 consists of dual end-to-end azido-bridged 1D Co(2+) chains that are linked by trans endi into a 2D layer and are further extended to a 3D framework through H bonds. Compound 2 is a 2D (4,4) layer that is connected by end-to-end azido ions. The gauche endi ligands act as terminal ligands to separate the neighboring layers thoroughly. Compound 3 has a (4,4) 2D layer that is similar to that of compound 2, and these layers are further extended to a 3D network through gauche endi. The magnetic investigation shows that compound 3 is antiferromagnetically coupled and compound 2 is a weak ferromagnet with a critical temperature of 22 K, which is quite high compared with that of the previously reported 2D azido-bridged Co(2+) compounds.

Total assignment of the (1)H- and (13)C-NMR spectra for TZT-1027 and related compounds

The total assignment of the (1)H- and (13)C-NMR spectra for TZT-1027 was carried out using various NMR methods (1D, 2D NMR). It was found that TZT-1027 exists in two different conformations resulting from the cis-trans isomerization of the amide bond at N-11 and C-12 in DMSO-d(6). The (1)H- and (13)C-NMR spectra of compound 1 and 2 comprised of the partial structure of TZT-1027 were also assigned to be TZT-1027. These assignments showed that compound 1 is in good agreement with TZT-1027 with regard to formation of the conformers.     

2D-1D structural phase transformation of Co(ii) 3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate frameworks with chromotropism

Two new metal-organic frameworks [Co(pydc)(H(2)O)(2)](n) (1) and [Co(pydc)(H(2)O)(4)](n)(H(2)O)(n) (2), (pydc = 3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate) have been synthesized by a diffusion method and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structure of 1 reveals an infinite 2D layer with honeycomb-like cavities in which each pydc ligand bridges three Co(ii) ions. The adjacent 2D layers are orderly packed in an ABAB-type array via intermolecular interactions of the combined π-π stacking and hydrogen bonds to form a 3D supramolecular architecture. Interestingly, compound 1 exhibits a water induced crystal-to-amorphous transformation with chromotropism confirmed by spectroscopic techniques, elemental analysis, TGA and XRPD. When this amorphous phase (1A) was exposed to water vapor, it was readily converted into the second crystalline phase 1B with a color change. Moreover, a reversible process between 1A and 1B was performed. In the case of compound 2, pydc acts as didentate bridging ligand connecting two Co(ii) ions, leading to a 1D zig-zag chain. Guest water molecules fill the gaps in between chains and form hydrogen bonds with the host chains stabilizing the 3D network of 2. Additionally, compound 2 also exhibits a water induced crystal-to-amorphous transformation with chromotropism and the reversible process was also performed between the dehydrated (2A) and rehydrated (2') forms. Surprisingly, the IR and UV-vis spectra, elemental analysis, TGA curve and XRPD pattern of the rehydrated second phase 1B are found to be identical to that of 2 and 2', these results confirm that 2, 2' and 1B are the same compound.

First three-dimensional inorganic-organic hybrid material constructed from an "inverted Keggin" polyoxometalate and a copper(I)-organic complex

A new polyoxometalate (POM) based on a flexible bidentate ligand and "inverted Keggin" inorganic building block, namely, [Cu(8)L(8)[Mo(12)O(46)(AsPh)(4)](2)]·H(2)O (1), where L is 1,3-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propane, has been synthesized under hydrothermal condition. In 1, the "inverted Keggin" [Mo(12)O(46)(AsPh)(4)](4-) building blocks are linked by the one-dimensional (1D) zigzag [Cu(I)(trans-L)](+) chains and [Cu(I)(4)(cis-L)(4)](4+) macrocycles to yield a three-dimensional (3D) framework. The compound 1 represents the first 3D "inverted Keggin" polyoxometalate modified by a transition-metal complex. Topologically, the 3D framework can be considered as an 8-connected net with a Schl?fli symbol of 4(22)·6(6). As far as we know, compound 1 is the highest-connected uninodal network topology presently known for POM-based materials.

New Inorganic-organic Hybrid Compound Containing One Dimensional Keggin Polyoxometalate[SiW11O39Co]6- Chains:Preparation,Characterization and Application in Chemically Bulk-modified Electrode

A new inorganic-organic hybrid compound based on polyoxometalate and organic ligand formulated as （H2bpp）3[SiWlIO39Co]-2H20（1）[bpp=l,3-bis（4-pyridyl）propane] was hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR, TG, and cyclic voltammetry. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that compound 1 consists of interesting cobalt-monosubstituted POMs one dimensional chain together with protonated bpp ligands. Additionally, the polyoxoanions combined with the discrete organic substrates by hydrogen bond interactions to afford a supramolecular 3D network structure. The hybrid compound 1 was used as a bulk modifier to fabricate a three-dimensional chemically modified carbon paste electrode（1-CPE） by direct mixing. The electrochemical behavior and electrocatalysis of 1-CPE were studied in detail. The results indicate that 1-CPE has good electrocatalytic activities toward the reduction of nitrite or bromate in 1 mol/L 1-12SO4 aqueous solution. 1-CPE shows remarkable stability that can be ascribed to the insolubility of compound 1 and the supramolecular interactions existed between 1D POM anion chains and organic ligand bpp, which is very important for practical applications in electrode modification.
