Diverse entangled metal-organic framework materials incorporating kinked organodiimine and flexible aliphatic dicarboxylate ligands: synthesis, structure, physical properties, and reversible structural reorganization

Hydrothermal synthesis has afforded a family of divalent metal adipate (adp) coordination polymers incorporating the kinked dipodal organodiimine 4,4'-dipyridylamine (dpa). As revealed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, the structures of these materials are critically dependent on the metal coordination geometry, the carboxylate binding modes, and the conformations of the flexible adipate moieties. In all cases, hydrogen-bonding interactions imparted by the dpa tethers also play a structure-directing role. All materials were further characterized via infrared spectroscopy and elemental and thermogravimetric analysis. [Co(adp)(dpa)] (1) displays doubly interpenetrated three-dimensional (3-D) networks with a decorated alpha-Po-type (pcu) topology. In contrast, [Ni(adp)(dpa)(H2O)] (2) possesses a triply interpenetrated binodal cooperite-type (pts) framework, the highest level of interpenetration yet reported for this structure type. [Zn(adp)(dpa)].H2O (3) presents mutually inclined polycatenated 2-D graphitic layers consisting of neutral dimeric [Zn2(mu2-adp)2] kernels conjoined by dipodal dpa ligands. Compound 1 exhibited weak antiferromagnetic coupling between its carboxylate-bridged Co atoms, following Curie-Weiss behavior with Theta=-3.3 K. Compound 3 manifested blue light emission under ultraviolet excitation, as well as a reversible structural reorganization upon dehydration/rehydration.     

Double-stranded helices and molecular zippers assembled from single-stranded coordination polymers directed by supramolecular interactions

Using three nonlinear dicarboxylates, isophthalate (ipa), 4,4'-oxybis(benzoate) (oba), and ethylenedi(4-oxybenzoate) (eoba), we have prepared five neutral infinite copper(II) dicarboxylate coordination polymers containing lateral aromatic chelate ligands, namely [Cu(ipa)(2,2'-bpy)]n.2nH2O (1), [Cu2(ipa)2(phen)2H2O]n (2), [Cu(oba)(phen)]n (3), [Cu(oba)(2,2'-bpy)]n (4), and [Cu(eoba)(phen)]n (5; 2,2'-bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) by hydrothermal synthesis. X-ray single-crystal structural analyses of these complexes reveal that the nonlinear flexible or V-shaped dicarboxylates can induce the helicity or flexuousity of the polymeric chains and aromatic chelate ligands are important in providing potential supramolecular recognition sites for pi-pi aromatic stacking interactions. An appropriate combination of the bridging dicarboxylate and aromatic chelate can induce a pair of single-stranded helical or flexuous chains to generate a double-stranded helix or molecular zipper through supramolecular interactions, respectively.

Novel 3-D Supramolecular Architectures Constructed from Zn^2＋ ions, Oxybis（4-benzoate） and Di（2-pyridyl）amine Ligands

Using the V-shaped oba dianions as bridging ligands and dpa molecules as terminal ligands, a new 1D helical coordination-polymeric chain, [Zn（oba）（dpa）]n [oba=oxybis（4-benzoate）, dpa=di（2-pyridyl）amine], was synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analyses, UV-Vis and IR spectra, and TGA analysis. X-ray structural analysis revealed that, oba and dpa ligands played an important role in the self-assembly of the helical chains by providing potential supramolecular recognition sites for π-π aromatic stacking and hydrogen-bond interactions, resulting in the self-assembly of the （4,4） networks to give a 3-D supramolecular framework. The photoluminescence properties of the title compound were also investigated, showing intense blue photoluminescence properties at room temperature.

A series of four coordination polymers showing entangled architectures based on cobalt and mixed N-donor/O-donor ligands, namely [Co(4,4'-BPIPA)(TP)]·2DMF (1), [Co(4,4'-BPIPA)(2,6-NDC)(DMF)]·DMF (2), [Co(4,4'-BPIPA)(2,6-NDC)]·2DMF (3) and [Co(4,4'-BPIPA)(4,4'-BPDC)]·2DMF (4) (4,4'-BPIPA = N,N'-bis-4-pyridinyl-isophthalamide, TP = terephthalic acid, 2,6-NDC = 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 4,4'-BPDC = 4,4'-biphenyldicarboxylic acid), have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions. Complex 1, containing 4,4'-BPIPA and relatively short dicarboxylate ligands (TP), exhibits two-dimensional (2D) two-fold interpenetration of double wavy 4(4)-sql nets. Complex 2 displays interesting 2D→3D parallel polycatenation of undulated 2D 4(4)-sql layers built by 4,4'-BPIPA and moderate dicarboxylate ligands (2,6-NDC). Complexes 3 and 4, although constructed of dicarboxylate ligands with different lengths (moderate 2,6-NDC and long 4,4'-BPDC), possess similar 3-fold interpenetration of identical self-catenated single nets with 6(5)·8-mok topologies. It has been found that the length of the dicarboxylate ligands plays a key role of module-matching in the self-assemblies of complexes 1-4. Moreover, the effect of the conformations of 4,4'-BPIPA, which can be controlled by tuning reaction temperatures, is also discussed.

Compound 2 is a 3D metal-organic framework in which the unique linear tetranuclear clusters with (μ-EO-N(3))(μ-COO) and (μ-COO)(μ-O) bridges are cross-linked by organic backbones, and it represents a new example of the rare 8-connected self-catenated 3D net with the point symbol 4(16)·6(12). Magnetic analyses on the compounds have been performed in the classical-spin approximation, revealing that all the above-mentioned mixed bridging motifs induce weak antiferromagnetic interactions between Mn(II) ions.

Isomorphous Co(II) and Ni(II) antiferromagnets based on mixed azide- and carboxylate-bridged chains: metamagnetism and single-chain dynamics

Two isomorphous Co(II) and Ni(II) coordination polymers with azide and the 4-(4-pyridyl)benzoic acid N-oxide ligand (4,4-Hopybz) were synthesized, and structurally and magnetically characterized. They are formulated as [M(4,4-opybz)(N(3))(H(2)O)](n) (M = Co, 1 and Ni, 2). The compounds consist of 2D coordination networks, in which 1D coordination chains with (μ-N(3))(μ-COO) bridges are interlinked by the 4,4-opybz spacers, and the structure also features intra- and interchain O-HO hydrogen-bonding bridges between metal ions. Both compounds exhibit ferromagnetic interactions through the intrachain (μ-N(3))(μ-COO)(O-HO) bridges and antiferromagnetic interactions through the interchain O-HO bridges. The ferromagnetic chains are antiferromagnetically ordered, and the antiferromagnetic phases exhibit field-induced metamagnetic transition. It is found that 1 displays slow relaxation of magnetization, typical of single-chain magnets, while 2 does not. The difference emphasizes the great importance of large magnetic anisotropy for single-chain-magnet dynamics.

Organic-acid effect on the structures of a series of lead(II) complexes

An investigation into the dependence of coordination polymer architectures on organic-acid ligands is reported on the basis of the reaction of Pb(NO3)2 and eight structurally related organic-acid ligands in the presence or absence of N-donor chelating ligands. Eight novel lead(II)-organic architectures, [Pb(adip)(dpdp)]2 1, [Pb(glu)(dpdp)] 2, [Pb(suc)(dpdp)] 3, [Pb(fum)(dpdp)] . H2O 4, [Pb2(oba)(dpdp)2] . 2(dpdp).2(NO3).2H2O 5, [Pb2(1,4-bdc)2(dpdp)2] . H2O 6, [Pb(dpdc)(dpdp)] 7, and [Pb(1,3-bdc)(dpdp)] . H2O 8, where dpdp = dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]-phenazine, H2adip = adipic acid, H2glu = glutaric acid, H2suc = succinic acid, H2fum = fumaric acid, H2oba = 4,4'-oxybis(benzoic acid), 1,4-H2bdc = benzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid, H2dpdc = 2,2'-diphenyldicarboxylic acid, and 1,3-H2bdc = benzene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid, were successfully synthesized under hydrothermal conditions through varying the organic-acid linkers and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Compounds 1-8 crystallize in the presence of organic-acid linkers as well as secondary N-donor chelating ligands. Diverse structures were observed for these complexes. 1 and 5 have dinuclear structures, which are further stacked via strong pi-pi interactions to form 2D layers. 2-3 and 6-8 feature chain structures, which are connected by strong pi-pi interactions to result in 2D and 3D supramolecular architectures. Compound 4 contains 2D layers, which are further extended to a 3D structure by pi-pi interactions. A systematic structural comparison of these 8 complexes indicates that the organic-acid structures have essential roles in the framework formation of the Pb(II) complexes.

The thermal and photoluminescence properties of complexes 1-5 in the solid state have also been investigated.
