Characterization and gas adsorption of a novel three‐dimensional metal–organic framework (MOF) generated from a new polydentate fluorene‐bridged ligand

A polydentate ligand bridged by a fluorene group, namely 9,9‐bis(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐2,7‐bis(pyridin‐4‐yl)fluorene (L), has been prepared under solvothermal conditions in acetonitrile. Crystals of the three‐dimensional metal–organic framework (MOF) poly[[[μ₃‐9,9‐bis(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐2,7‐bis(pyridin‐4‐yl)fluorene‐κ³N:N′:O]bis(methanol‐κO)(μ‐sulfato‐κ²O:O′)nickel(II)] methanol disolvate], {[Ni(SO₄)(C₂₇H₂₄N₂O₂)(CH₃OH)]·2CH₃OH}_n, (I), were obtained by the solvothermal reaction of L and NiSO₄ in methanol. The ligand L forms a two‐dimensional network in the crystallographic bc plane via two groups of O—H…N hydrogen bonds and neighbouring two‐dimensional planes are completely parallel and stack to form a three‐dimensional structure. In (I), the Ni^II ions are linked by sulfate ions through Ni—O bonds to form inorganic chains and these Ni‐containing chains are linked into a three‐dimensional framework via Ni—O and Ni—N bonds involving the polydentate ligand L. With one of the hydroxy groups of L coordinating to the Ni^II atom, the torsion angle of the hydroxyethyl group changes from that of the uncoordinated molecule. In addition, the adsorption properties of (I) with carbon dioxide were investigated.     

A novel cadmium(II) coordination polymer containing two kinds of independent one‐dimensional chain

The structure of the title compound, catena‐poly[[cadmium(II)‐di‐μ‐chlorido‐μ‐(1,4‐diazoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane‐1‐carboxylato)] [[aquachloridocadmium(II)]‐di‐μ‐chlorido] dihydrate], {[Cd(C₈H₁₅N₂O₂)Cl₂][CdCl₃(H₂O)]·2H₂O}_n, contains two kinds of independent one‐dimensional chain, viz. {[Cd(C₈H₁₅N₂O₂)Cl₂]⁺}_n and {[CdCl₃(H₂O)]⁻}_n, and uncoordinated water molecules. Each Cd^II cation in the {[Cd(C₈H₁₅N₂O₂)Cl₂]⁺}_n chain is octahedrally coordinated by two pairs of bridging chloride ligands and two O atoms from different bridging carboxylate groups. Cd^II cations in the {[CdCl₃(H₂O)]⁻}_n chain are also octahedrally surrounded by four bridging chloride ligands, one terminal chloride ligand and one coordinated water molecule. Hydrogen bonds between solvent water molecules and these two independent chains generate a three‐dimensional framework containing two‐dimensional zigzag layers.<!?tpb=18pt>     

Syntheses and crystal structures of two magnesium–tetrazole compounds in salt and polymeric forms

Two alkaline earth–tetrazole compounds, namely catena‐poly[[[triaquamagnesium(II)]‐μ‐5,5′‐(azanediyl)ditetrazolato‐κ³N¹,N^1′:N⁵] hemi{bis[μ‐5,5′‐(azanediyl)ditetrazolato‐κ³N¹,N^1′:N²]bis[triaquamagnesium(II)]} monohydrate], {[Mg(C₂HN₉)(H₂O)₃][Mg₂(C₂HN₉)₂(H₂O)₆]_0.5·H₂O}_n, (I), and bis[5‐(pyrazin‐2‐yl)tetrazolate] hexaaquamagnesium(II), (C₅H₃N₆)[Mg(H₂O)₆], (II), have been prepared under hydrothermal conditions. Compound (I) is a mixed dimer–polymer based on magnesium ion centres and can be regarded as the first example of a magnesium–tetrazolate polymer in the crystalline form. The structure shows a complex three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network that involves magnesium–tetrazolate dimers, solvent water molecules and one‐dimensional magnesium–tetrazolate polymeric chains. The intrinsic cohesion in the polymer chains is ensured by N—H...N hydrogen bonds, which form R₂²(7) rings, thus reinforcing the propagation of the polymer chain along the a axis. The crystal structure of magnesium tetrazole salt (II) reveals a mixed ribbon of hydrogen‐bonded rings, of types R₂²(7), R₂²(9) and R₂⁴(10), running along the c axis, which are linked by R₂⁴(16) rings, generating a 4,8‐c flu net.     

Two novel interpenetrated zinc(II) and cadmium(II) coordination polymers based on 4-imidazole-benzoate: Syntheses,crystal structures and properties

Two novel interpenetrated coordination polymers, [Zn(IBA)₂] _n (1) and {[Cd(IBA)₂(H₂O)]·4H₂O} _n (2), have been synthesized by using 4-imidazole-benzoic acid (HIBA) as ligand under hydrothermal conditions. Complex 1 crystallizes in a chiral space group and has a two-fold interpenetrated 2D network structure with (4,4) topology, while complex 2 is a 3D porous dia network with four nets interpenetrating each other. The SHG activity of 1 and the photoluminescent property of 2 have been investigated.

Cocrystals of 6‐methyl‐2‐thiouracil: presence of the acceptor–donor–acceptor/donor–acceptor–donor synthon

The results of seven cocrystallization experiments of the antithyroid drug 6‐methyl‐2‐thiouracil (MTU), C₅H₆N₂OS, with 2,4‐diaminopyrimidine, 2,4,6‐triaminopyrimidine and 6‐amino‐3H‐isocytosine (viz. 2,6‐diamino‐3H‐pyrimidin‐4‐one) are reported. MTU features an ADA (A = acceptor and D = donor) hydrogen‐bonding site, while the three coformers show complementary DAD hydrogen‐bonding sites and therefore should be capable of forming an ADA/DAD N—H...O/N—H...N/N—H...S synthon with MTU. The experiments yielded one cocrystal and six cocrystal solvates, namely 6‐methyl‐2‐thiouracil–2,4‐diaminopyrimidine–1‐methylpyrrolidin‐2‐one (1/1/2), C₅H₆N₂OS·C₄H₆N₄·2C₅H₉NO, (I), 6‐methyl‐2‐thiouracil–2,4‐diaminopyrimidine (1/1), C₅H₆N₂OS·C₄H₆N₄, (II), 6‐methyl‐2‐thiouracil–2,4‐diaminopyrimidine–N,N‐dimethylacetamide (2/1/2), 2C₅H₆N₂OS·C₄H₆N₄·2C₄H₉NO, (III), 6‐methyl‐2‐thiouracil–2,4‐diaminopyrimidine–N,N‐dimethylformamide (2/1/2), C₅H₆N₂OS·0.5C₄H₆N₄·C₃H₇NO, (IV), 2,4,6‐triaminopyrimidinium 6‐methyl‐2‐thiouracilate–6‐methyl‐2‐thiouracil–N,N‐dimethylformamide (1/1/2), C₄H₈N₅⁺·C₅H₅N₂OS⁻·C₅H₆N₂OS·2C₃H₇NO, (V), 6‐methyl‐2‐thiouracil–6‐amino‐3H‐isocytosine–N,N‐dimethylformamide (1/1/1), C₅H₆N₂OS·C₄H₆N₄O·C₃H₇NO, (VI), and 6‐methyl‐2‐thiouracil–6‐amino‐3H‐isocytosine–dimethyl sulfoxide (1/1/1), C₅H₆N₂OS·C₄H₆N₄O·C₂H₆OS, (VII). Whereas in cocrystal (I) an R₂²(8) interaction similar to the Watson–Crick adenine/uracil base pair is formed and a two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonding network is observed, the cocrystals (II)–(VII) contain the triply hydrogen‐bonded ADA/DAD N—H...O/N—H...N/N—H...S synthon and show a one‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonding network. Although 2,4‐diaminopyrimidine possesses only one DAD hydrogen‐bonding site, it is, due to orientational disorder, triply connected to two MTU molecules in (III) and (IV).     

Syntheses and structures of three macrocyclic supramolecular complexes and one ZnII‐containing coordination polymer generated from a semi‐rigid multidentate N‐containing ligand

Semirigid organic ligands can adopt different conformations to construct coordination polymers with more diverse structures when compared to those constructed from rigid ligands. A new asymmetric semirigid organic ligand, 4‐{2‐[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]‐2H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl}pyridine ( L ), has been prepared and used to synthesize three bimetallic macrocyclic complexes and one coordination polymer, namely, bis(μ‐4‐{2‐[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]‐2H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl}pyridine)bis[dichloridozinc(II)] dichloromethane disolvate, [Zn₂Cl₄(C₁₂H₁₀N₆)₂]·2CH₂Cl₂, ( I ), the analogous chloroform monosolvate, [Zn₂Cl₄(C₁₂H₁₀N₆)₂]·CHCl₃, ( II ), bis(μ‐4‐{2‐[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]‐2H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl}pyridine)bis[diiodidozinc(II)] dichloromethane disolvate, [Zn₂I₄(C₁₂H₁₀N₆)₂]·2CH₂Cl₂, ( III ), and catena‐poly[[[diiodidozinc(II)]‐μ‐4‐{2‐[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]‐2H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl}pyridine] chloroform monosolvate], {[ZnI₂(C₁₂H₁₀N₆)]·CHCl₃}_n, ( IV ), by solution reaction with ZnX₂ (X = Cl and I) in a CH₂Cl₂/CH₃OH or CHCl₃/CH₃OH mixed solvent system at room temperature. Complex ( I ) is isomorphic with complex ( III ) and has a bimetallic ring possessing similar coordination environments for both of the Zn^II cations. Although complex ( II ) also contains a bimetallic ring, the two Zn^II cations have different coordination environments. Under the influence of the I^? anion and guest CHCl₃ molecule, complex ( IV ) displays a significantly different structure with respect to complexes ( I )–( III ). C—H…Cl and C—H…N hydrogen bonds, and π–π stacking or C—Cl…π interactions exist in complexes ( I )–( IV ), and these weak interactions play an important role in the three‐dimensional structures of ( I )–( IV ) in the solid state. In addition, the fluorescence properties of L and complexes ( I )–( IV ) were investigated.     

Three novel topologically different metal–organic frameworks built from 3‐nitro‐4‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)benzoic acid

The design and synthesis of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted much interest due to the intriguing diversity of their architectures and topologies. However, building MOFs with different topological structures from the same ligand is still a challenge. Using 3‐nitro‐4‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)benzoic acid (HL) as a new ligand, three novel MOFs, namely poly[[(N,N‐dimethylformamide‐κO)bis[μ₂‐3‐nitro‐4‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)benzoato‐κ³O,O′:N]cadmium(II)] N,N‐dimethylformamide monosolvate methanol monosolvate], {[Cd(C₁₂H₇N₂O₄)₂(C₃H₇NO)]·C₃H₇NO·CH₃OH}_n, ( 1 ), poly[[(μ₂‐acetato‐κ²O:O′)[μ₃‐3‐nitro‐4‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)benzoato‐κ³O:O′:N]bis[μ₃‐3‐nitro‐4‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)benzoato‐κ⁴O,O′:O′:N]dicadmium(II)] N,N‐dimethylacetamide disolvate monohydrate], {[Cd₂(C₁₂H₇N₂O₄)₃(CH₃CO₂)]·2C₄H₉NO·H₂O}_n, ( 2 ), and catena‐poly[[[diaquanickel(II)]‐bis[μ₂‐3‐nitro‐4‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)benzoato‐κ²O:N]] N,N‐dimethylacetamide disolvate], {[Ni(C₁₂H₇N₂O₄)₂(H₂O)₂]·2C₄H₉NO}_n, ( 3 ), have been prepared. Single‐crystal structure analysis shows that the Cd^II atom in MOF ( 1 ) has a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal [CdN₂O₅] coordination geometry. The [CdN₂O₅] units as 4‐connected nodes are interconnected by L^? ligands to form a fourfold interpenetrating three‐dimensional (3D) framework with a dia topology. In MOF ( 2 ), there are two crystallographically different Cd^II ions showing a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal [CdNO₆] and a distorted octahedral [CdN₂O₄] coordination geometry, respectively. Two Cd^II ions are connected by three carboxylate groups to form a binuclear [Cd₂(COO)₃] cluster. Each binuclear cluster as a 6‐connected node is further linked by acetate groups and L^? ligands to produce a non‐interpenetrating 3D framework with a pcu topology. MOF ( 3 ) contains two crystallographically distinct Ni^II ions on special positions. Each Ni^II ion adopts an elongated octahedral [NiN₂O₄] geometry. Each Ni^II ion as a 4‐connected node is linked by L^? ligands to generate a two‐dimensional network with an sql topology, which is further stabilized by two types of intermolecular OW—HW…O hydrogen bonds to form a 3D supramolecular framework. MOFs ( 1 )–( 3 ) were also characterized by powder X‐ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetic analysis. Furthermore, the solid‐state photoluminescence of HL and MOFs ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) have been investigated. The photoluminescence of MOFs ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) are enhanced and red‐shifted with respect to free HL. The gas adsorption investigation of MOF ( 2 ) indicates a good separation selectivity (71) of CO₂/N₂ at 273 K (i.e. the amount of CO₂ adsorption is 71 times higher than N₂ at the same pressure).     

Syntheses,structures and magnetic properties of two CoII/NiII isostructural coordination polymers based on an asymmetric semirigid tricarboxylate ligand

Two new isostructural complexes, namely, poly[aqua[μ₃-2-(4-carboxyphenoxy)terephthalato-κ³O¹:O⁴:O^4′](1,10-phenanthroline-κ²N,N′)cobalt(II)], [Co(C₁₅H₈O₇)(C₁₂H₈N₂)(H₂O)]_n or [Co(μ₃-Hcpota)(phen)(H₂O)]_n, I , and poly[aqua[μ₃-2-(4-carboxyphenoxy)terephthalato-κ³O¹:O⁴:O^4′](1,10-phenanthroline-κ²N,N′)nickel(II)], [Ni(C₁₅H₈O₇)(C₁₂H₈N₂)(H₂O)]_n or [Ni(μ₃-Hcpota)(phen)(H₂O)]_n, II , have been synthesized by solvothermal reactions. Complexes I and II were fully characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analyses, thermogravimetric analyses, and powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. They both present two-dimensional structures based on [M₂(μ-COO)₂]²⁺ (M = Co^II or Ni^II) dinuclear metal units with a fes topology and a vertex symbol (4·8²). Interestingly, the positions of the two dimeric metal motifs and the two partially deprotonated Hcpota^2? ligands reproduce regular flying butterfly arrangements flipped upside down and sharing wings in the ab plane. Magnetic studies indicate antiferromagnetic interactions (J = ?5.21 cm^?1 for I and ?11.53 cm^?1 for II ) in the dimeric units, with Co…Co and Ni…Ni distances of 4.397 (1) and 4.358 (1) Å, respectively, that are related to double syn–anti carboxylate bridges.     

Metal–organic framework assembled from erbium and a tetrapodal polyphosphonic acid organic linker

A three‐dimensional metal–organic framework (MOF), poly[[μ₆‐5′‐pentahydrogen [1,1′‐biphenyl]‐3,3′,5,5′‐tetrayltetrakis(phosphonato)]erbium(III)] 2.5‐hydrate], formulated as [Er(C₁₂H₁₁O₁₂P₄)]·2.5H₂O or [Er(H₅btp)]·2.5H₂O ( I ) and isotypical with a Y³⁺‐based MOF reported previously by our research group [Firmino et al. (2017b). Inorg. Chem. 56 , 1193–1208], was constructed based solely on Er³⁺ and on the polyphosphonic organic linker [1,1′‐biphenyl]‐3,3′,5,5′‐tetrakis(phosphonic acid) (H₈btp). The present work describes our efforts to introduce lanthanide cations into the flexible network, demonstrating that, on the one hand, the compound can be obtained using three distinct experimental methods, i.e. hydro(solvo)thermal (Hy), microwave‐assisted (MW) and one‐pot (Op), and, on the other hand, that crystallite size can be approximately fine‐tuned according to the method employed. MOF I contains hexacoordinated Er³⁺ cations which are distributed in a zigzag inorganic chain running parallel to the [100] direction of the unit cell. The chains are, in turn, bridged by the anionic organic linker to form a three‐dimensional 6,6‐connected binodal network. This connectivity leads to the existence of one‐dimensional channels (also running parallel to the [100] direction) filled with disordered and partially occupied water molecules of crystalization which are engaged in O—H…O hydrogen‐bonding interactions with the [Er(H₅btp)] framework. Additional weak π–π interactions [intercentroid distance = 3.957 (7) Å] exist between aromatic rings, which help to maintain the structural integrity of the network.     

Manganese(II), lead(II) and cadmium(II) coordination complexes containing a tetrazole‐based acylamide ligand: synthesis and the influence of the metal ions on the structures

Three new manganese(II), lead(II) and cadmium(II) coordination complexes have been prepared by reaction of N‐(1H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl)cinnamamide (HNTCA) with divalent metal salts (MnCl₂, PbCl₂ and CdCl₂) in a mixed‐solvent system, affording mononuclear to trinuclear structures namely, bis(methanol‐κO)bis[5‐(3‐phenylprop‐2‐enamido)‐1H‐1,2,3,4‐tetrazol‐1‐ido‐κ²N¹,O]manganese(II), [Mn(C₁₀H₈N₅O)₂(CH₃OH)₂], (1), bis[μ‐5‐(3‐phenylprop‐2‐enamido)‐1H‐1,2,3,4‐tetrazol‐1‐ido]‐κ³N¹,O:N²;κ³N²:N¹,O‐bis{aqua[5‐(3‐phenylprop‐2‐enamido)‐1H‐1,2,3,4‐tetrazol‐1‐ido‐κ²N¹,O]lead(II)}, [Pb₂(C₁₀H₈N₅O)₄(H₂O)₂], (2), and hexakis[μ₂‐5‐(3‐phenylprop‐2‐enamido)‐1H‐1,2,3,4‐tetrazol‐1‐ido‐κ³N¹,O:N²]tricadmium(II), [Cd₃(C₁₀H₈N₅O)₆], (3). The structures of these three compounds reveal that the nature of the metal ions and the side groups of the organic building blocks have a significant effect on the structures of the coordination compounds formed. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds link the molecules into two‐dimensional [complex (1)] and three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded networks. Complexes (2) and (3) show significant fluorescence, while complex (1) displays no fluorescence.     

Understanding metal–ligand interactions in coordination polymers using Hirshfeld surface analysis

Properties related to the size and shape of Hirshfeld surfaces provide insight into the nature and strength of interactions among the building blocks of molecular crystals. In this work, we demonstrate that functions derived from the curvatures of the surface at a point, namely, shape index (S) and curvedness (C), as well as the distances from the surface to the nearest external (d_e) and internal (d_i) nuclei, can be used to help understand metal–ligand interactions in coordination polymers. The crystal structure of catena‐poly[[[(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ²N,N′)copper(II)]‐μ‐4‐nitrophthalato‐κ²O¹:O²] trihydrate], {[Cu(C₈H₃NO₆)(C₁₂H₈N₂)]·3H₂O}_n, described here for the first time, was used as a prototypical system for our analysis. Decomposition of the coordination polymer into its metal centre and ligand molecules followed by joint analysis of the Hirshfeld surfaces generated for each part unveil qualitative and semi‐quantitative information that cannot be easily obtained either from conventional crystal packing analysis or from Hirshfeld surface analysis of the entire polymeric units. The shape index function S is particularly sensitive to the coordination details and its mapping on the surface of the metallic centre is highly dependent on the nature of the ligand and the coordination bond distance. Correlations are established between the shape of the Hirshfeld surface of the metal and the geometry of the metal–ligand contacts in the crystals. This could be applied not only to estimate limiting coordination distances in metal–organic compounds, but also to help establish structure–property relationships potentially useful for the crystal engineering of such materials.     

Coordination polymers of CdII and PbII derived from bipyridine–glycoluril: influence of metal‐ion size and counter‐ions

Two new one‐dimensional (1D) coordination polymers (CPs), namely catena‐poly[[[aquacadmium(II)]‐bis(μ‐4b,5,7,7a‐tetrahydro‐4b,7a‐epiminomethanoimino‐6H‐imidazo[4,5‐f][1,10]phenanthroline‐6,13‐dione)] bis(perchlorate) dihydrate], {[Cd(C₁₄H₁₀N₆O₂)₂(H₂O)](ClO₄)₂·2H₂O}_n or {[Cd(BPG)₂(H₂O)](ClO₄)₂·2H₂O}_n, 1 , and catena‐poly[[lead(II)‐bis(μ‐4b,5,7,7a‐tetrahydro‐4b,7a‐epiminomethanoimino‐6H‐imidazo[4,5‐f][1,10]phenanthroline‐6,13‐dione)] bis(perchlorate) dihydrate], {[Pb(C₁₄H₁₀N₆O₂)₂](ClO₄)₂·2H₂O}_n or {[Pb(BPG)₂](ClO₄)₂·2H₂O}_n, 2 , have been synthesized using bipyridine–glycoluril (BPG; systematic name: 4b,5,7,7a‐tetrahydro‐4b,7a‐epiminomethanoimino‐6H‐imidazo[4,5‐f][1,10]phenanthroline‐6,13‐dione), a urea‐fused tecton, in a mixed‐solvent system. The Cd^II ion in 1 is heptacoordinated and the Pb^II ion in 2 is hexacoordinated, with the Cd^II ion adopting a pentagonal bipyramidal geometry and the Pb^II ion adopting a distorted octahedral geometry. Both CPs form infinite linear chain structures which are hydrogen bonded to each other leading to the formation of three‐dimensional supramolecular network structures. Topological analysis of CPs 1 and 2 reveals that the structures exhibit 1D chain‐like arrangements in an AB–AB sequence and shows platonic uniform 2‐connected uninodal topologies. Furthermore, a comparative analysis of a series of structures based on the BPG ligand indicates that the size of the metal ion and the types of counter‐ions used have a great influence on the resulting frameworks and properties.     

A novel alkaline earth strontium(II) coordination polymer: poly[hexaaquatetrakis(μ5‐pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxylato)bis(μ4‐pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxylato)(μ7‐sulfato)heptastrontium(II)]

The title compound, [Sr₇(C₇H₃NO₄)₆(SO₄)(H₂O)₆]_n, has been synthesized by an ionothermal method using the ionic liquid 1‐ethyl‐3‐methylimidazolium ([Emim]Br) as solvent, and characterized by elemental analysis, energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, IR and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The structure of the compound can be viewed as a three‐dimensional coordination polymer composed of Sr²⁺ cations, pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxylate anions, sulfate anions and water molecules. The compound not only exhibits a three‐dimensional structure with a unique coordination mode of the sulfate anion, but also features the first example of a heptanuclear strontium(II) coordination polymer. The structure is further stabilized by O—H...O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions.     

Syntheses,structures and luminescent properties of two 3D pillared open frameworks with unique 6-connected structures based on 4,5-dihydroxy-1,3-benzenedisulfonate

Two coordination polymers, [Ba(H₂L)(H₂O)]_n·nH₂O (1) and [La(HL)(H₂O)]_n·nH₂O (2) (Na₂H₂L = 4,5-dihydroxy-1,3-benzenedisulfonic acid disodium salt), have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The central metal ions are nine-coordinate with distorted tricapped trigonal prismatic arrangements. Compounds 1 and 2 have 3-D metal–organic framework (MOF) structures which are created by 2-D inorganic layers [Ba₂S₂O₅]_n and [La₂S₂O₅]_n through organic phenyl moieties of HL^3? linkages. The inorganic layers and organic pillars are alternately arranged to generate the 3-D pillared-layered open frameworks with (4¹¹, 6⁴) topologies. Results of fluorescence measurements reveal that two decayed emission bands centered at 435 and 408 nm may be caused by interactions of the ligands and the metal ions. The respective luminescence emission peaks appear at different wavelengths and intensities, which can be affected by the metal ions.

Synthesis of dithiafulvene–quinone donor–acceptor systems: isolation of a Michael adduct

π‐Conjugated donor–acceptor systems based on dithiafulvene (DTF) donor units and various acceptor units have attracted attention for their linear and nonlinear optical properties. The reaction between p‐benzoquinone and a 1,3‐dithiole phosphonium salt, deprotonated by lithium hexamethyldisilazide (LiHMDS), gave a product mixture from which the Michael adduct [systematic name: dimethyl 2‐(3‐hydroxy‐6‐oxocyclohexa‐2,4‐dien‐1‐ylidene)‐2H‐1,3‐dithiole‐4,5‐dicarboxylate], C₁₃H₁₀O₆S₂, was isolated. It is likely that one of the unidentified products obtained previously by others from related reactions could be a similar Michael adduct.     

Synthesis,structure and characterization of two new metal–organic coordination polymers based on the ligand 5‐iodobenzene‐1,3‐dicarboxylate

Two new coordination polymers (CPs) formed from 5‐iodobenzene‐1,3‐dicarboxylic acid (H₂iip) in the presence of the flexible 1,4‐bis(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)butane (bimb) auxiliary ligand, namely poly[[μ₂‐1,4‐bis(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)butane‐κ²N³:N^3′](μ₃‐5‐iodobenzene‐1,3‐dicarboxylato‐κ⁴O¹,O^1′:O³:O^3′)cobalt(II)], [Co(C₈H₃IO₄)(C₁₀H₁₄N₄)]_n or [Co(iip)(bimb)]_n, (1), and poly[[[μ₂‐1,4‐bis(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)butane‐κ²N³:N^3′](μ₂‐5‐iodobenzene‐1,3‐dicarboxylato‐κ²O¹:O³)zinc(II)] trihydrate], {[Zn(C₈H₃IO₄)(C₁₀H₁₄N₄)]·3H₂O}_n or {[Zn(iip)(bimb)]·3H₂O}_n, (2), were synthesized and characterized by FT–IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), solid‐state UV–Vis spectroscopy, single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis and powder X‐ray diffraction analysis (PXRD). The iip²⁻ ligand in (1) adopts the (κ¹,κ¹‐μ₂)(κ¹, κ¹‐μ₁)‐μ₃ coordination mode, linking adjacent secondary building units into a ladder‐like chain. These chains are further connected by the flexible bimb ligand in a trans–trans–trans conformation. As a result, a twofold three‐dimensional interpenetrating α‐Po network is formed. Complex (2) exhibits a two‐dimensional (4,4) topological network architecture in which the iip²⁻ ligand shows the (κ¹)(κ¹)‐μ₂ coordination mode. The solid‐state UV–Vis spectra of (1) and (2) were investigated, together with the fluorescence properties of (2) in the solid state.
