Three coordination polymers of Robson-type macrocycles, {[Cu₄L¹(4,4′-bipy)₂]·4ClO₄·H₂O}_∞ (1), {[Cu₄L²(4,4′-bipy)₄]·2CH₃CN·4ClO₄·2H₂O}_∞ (2), and {[Zn₂L²(4,4′-bipy)₂]·(ClO₄)₂}_∞ (3) (where H₂L¹ and H₂L² are the [2?+?2] condensation products of 1,3-diaminopropane with 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol and 2,6-diformyl-4-fluorophenol, respectively), have been synthesized and characterized. Magnetic susceptibility was measured for 1 and 2 from 2 to 300?K. The optimized magnetic data were J?=?–368.5?cm^?1, J′?=?40.5?cm^?1 with R?=?1.69?×?10^?6 for 1 and J?=?–291.22?cm^?1, J′?=?83.74?cm^?1, ρ = 0.00168 with R?=?1.8?×?10^?11 for 2, respectively. The data reveal strong antiferromagnetic interactions between two Cu(II) ions in the macrocyclic unit and ferromagnetic interaction between the Cu(II) ions in two adjacent macrocyclic units for 1 and 2.     

Syntheses,structures, and properties of two coordination polymers based on 5-methoxyisophthalate and flexible dipyridines

Hydrothermal reactions of 5-methoxyisophthalic acid (MeO-H₂ip), 1,3-di(4-pyridyl)propane (bpp) with Cd(NO₃)₂·4H₂O and Ni(NO₃)₂·6H₂O produced [Cd₂(MeO-ip)₂(bpp)₂]_n·nH₂O (1) and [Ni(MeO-ip)(bpp)(H2O)]_n·nH₂O (2), respectively. Complex 1 is a 2-D layer consisting of dinuclear Cd(II)-carboxylate units, two carboxylates of MeO-ip adopt μ₂,η²-bridging and chelating modes. MeO-ip bridges three Cd(II) ions to form a 1-D [Cd₂(MeO-ip)₂]_n chain, which is further extended into a 2-D layer by bpp in a trans,trans-conformation. However, two carboxylates of MeO-ip in 2 are monodentate and chelating to link Ni(II) into a 1-D [Ni(MeO-ip)]_n chain with bpp in a trans-gauche conformation connecting [Ni(MeO-ip)]_n chains into a two-fold interpenetrating 3-D network. Coordinated water and carboxylate oxygen from different MeO-ip form strong hydrogen bonds. The frameworks of 1 and 2 are stable below 250 and 300?°C, respectively. Luminescence indicates that 1 shows maximum emission at 375 and 450 nm upon excitation at 320 nm. Magnetic measurement of 2 suggests the presence of ferromagnetic interactions in 2.

Abstract  Two new coordination polymers, [CoL(bpp)] _n (1) and [MnL(bipy)] _n ·0.25nH₂L·0.5nH₂O (2) (H₂L = 1,3-adamantanediacetic acid, bpp = 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane, bipy = 4,4′-bipyridine), were synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, and thermal analysis. Complex 1 is an one-dimensional (1D) chain structure of Co(II) bridged by L²⁻ as well as bpp. Complex 2 consists of a two-dimensional (2D) (3,6)-connected topology layer structure.

Four new lanthanide coordination polymers, [Y(Hnip)(nip)(H₂O)]·H₂O (1), [Ln(Hnip)(nip)(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O [Ln=Eu(2), Tb(3)] and [Y(nip)₂]·(H₂4,4′-bpy)_0.5 (4) [5-nip=5-nitroisophthalate, 4,4′-bpy=4,4′-bipyridine], have been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. Compound 1 features novel lanthanide-carboxylate groups chains composed of three samehanded helical strands intersecting each other through hinged lanthanide atoms, and these chains are cross-linked by phenylene moieties of carboxylate ligands into a 2D layer structure. Compounds 2 and 3 are isomorphous, and contain 1D catenanelike Ln-O-C-O-Ln chains, which are interconnected by phenylene moieties into 2D layer structures. Compound 4, however, displays a 3D architecture sustained by strong hydrogen bonding interactions between the protonated 4,4′-bpy and the carboxyl oxygen atom from [Y₂(nip)₄]²⁻ with 2D layer structure, and 4,4′-bpy as the guest molecules exist in bilayer channel. The studies for the thermal stabilities of the four compounds show that compound 4 is more stable than other compounds. Compound 2 emits characteristic red luminescence of Eu³⁺ ions at room temperature, and its luminescent lifetime and quantum efficiency has been determined.

All four compounds feature a bis-monodentate bridging mode of the coordinated dicarboxylate moiety. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibit linear chains, whereas compound 3 shows two-dimensional structure. The 3-apy ligand acts as terminal ligand in 1–3. Compound 4 contains a doubly deprotonated adipate (adip²⁻) that connects Cu centers into linear chains. Additionally, 3-apy acts as a bridge in 4, resulting in the formation of parallel two-dimensional layers distant enough to host neutral molecules of adipic acid. Magnetic susceptibility measurements of compounds 1 and 3 show Curie law behavior indicating that the S = 1/2 Cu(II) spin carriers are magnetically well isolated by the dicarboxylate ligands.

Compound 3 features a highly corrugated 2-D (4,4) layer and the layers are penetrated by each other to give 3-D polycatenations. Right- and left-handed helical Zn-bimb chains are arranged alternately within and between the layers, leading to mesomeric property of the whole network. Thermal stability and the decomposed products of all compounds were investigated. Luminescent properties of the ligands and compounds in the solid state at room temperature have also been explored. Moreover, the luminescence intensities of the compounds in different solvents are largely dependent on the solvent.

The resulted 1D double-chains are assembled via hydrogen bonding or π···π stacking into 2D supramolecular layers. The complexes were characterized by physico-chemical (thermal behavior) and infrared spectroscopy. Variable temperature magnetic characterization suggest weak antiferromagnetic coupling exchange between dimeric Mn(II) centers (J = ?0.46 cm^?1 for 1, ?0.56 cm^?1 for 2, ?1.28 cm^?1 for 3 and ?0.59 cm^?1 for 4).

Two ligands, 2-{5,5-dimethyl-3-[2-(pyridin-3-yl)-ethenyl]cyclohex-2-enylidene}propanedinitrile (L1) and 2-{5,5-dimethyl-3-[2-(pyridin-2-yl)-ethenyl]cyclohex-2-enylidene}propanedinitrile (L2), were synthesized. By reaction of mercury thiocyanate with L1 and L2, respectively, coordination polymers [Hg(L1)(μ_1,3-SCN)₂]_n (1), [Hg(L1)₂(μ_1,3-SCN)₂]_n (2), and [Hg(L2)(μ_1,3-SCN)(SCN)]_n (3) with different structures and topologies were obtained. In 1, the thiocyanate shows μ_1,3-SCN bridging coordination, and adjacent Hg(II) ions are bridged by two μ_1,3-SCN ions to form an infinite chain with the remaining position of five-coordinate Hg(II) occupied by L1. In 2, the thiocyanate has the same coordination as 1. However, Hg(II) has octahedral coordination with two L1 involved in coordination. An unusual feature of 3 is the presence of two types of thiocyanates, one has a S-terminal ligand and the other has a μ_1,3-SCN bridge. The mercury(II) in 3 is four-coordinated by L2 and three thiocyanates. Luminescent properties and thermal stabilities of 1–3 were studied.
