All four complexes are further extended into interesting two- or three-dimensional supramolecular frameworks. The luminescent properties of 2 and 3 were studied, which show emissions with maxima at 485 nm upon excitation at 396 nm for 2 and 476 nm upon excitation at 397 nm for 3, respectively.

Due to the different anions, solvents and ligands used in the syntheses, complexes 1–4 exhibit diverse supramolecular structures constructed from the corresponding trinuclear copper units via H-bonds.     

Coexistence of two conformational isomeric chains in a zinc(II) phosphonate induced by π···π stacking interactions

Hydrothermal reaction of zinc acetate with diethyl [(phenylsulfonyl)methyl]phosphonate as well as 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) afforded a novel zinc(II) phosphonate with the formula of [Zn₄(PhSO₂CH₂PO₃)₄(phen)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O. Such compound features two conformational isomeric 1D chains which are regulated by two different π···π stacking interactions.

Weak interactions in imidazole-containing zinc(II)-based metal–organic frameworks

The self-assembly of the two zinc(II) metal–organic frameworks, [Zn₂(L)(bdc)₂]·3MeOH·4H₂O}_n ( 1 , L = 2-(pyridin-4-yl)-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine, H₂bdc = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid) and [Zn₂(L)(bdc)₂]·2DMF·H₂O}_n ( 2 ), was achieved under mild reaction conditions. Both compounds 1 and 2 were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Interestingly, the coordination modes of the ligand L in two structures are entirely different. Compounds 1 and 2 were made up of paddle wheel-shaped {Zn₂(O₂C)₄} secondary building unit (SBU) clusters, which adopted three-dimensional structures with a pcu topology. Rich weak interactions were observed in the structures of both 1 and 2 . The uncoordinated imidazole and pyridine moieties exhibited electron donor–acceptor interactions, π–π stacking, hydrogen bonding, and CH–π interactions. These interactions also facilitated the abilities of the framework to adsorb CO₂ molecules. Gas adsorption studies revealed that compound 1 selectively adsorbed CO₂ (131.1 cm³/g) over N₂ (23.5 cm³/g) and H₂ (36.5 cm³/g) at a pressure of 1 atm.     

Copolymerization of carbon dioxide with cyclohexene oxide catalyzed by bimetallic dysprosium complexes containing hydrazine‐functionalized Schiff‐base derivatives

A series of dinuclear Dy^III acetate complexes containing three different hydrazine‐functionalized Schiff‐base ligands ( hmb , hmi, and hb ) have been synthesized by one‐pot reaction with Dy(OAc)₃·4H₂O as the metal precursor. [Dy₂( hmb )₂(OAc)₄]·MeCN ( 1 ·MeCN) and [Dy₂( hmi )₂(OAc)₂(MeOH)₂]·H₂O ( 2 ·H₂O) with keto and enol forms of the corresponding ligands, respectively, were shown the similar core structures but different ratio of Dy^III to OAc^–. Moreover, the different coordination environments of complex [Dy₂( hb )₂(μ‐OAc)₂(OAc)₂(H₂O)₂]·DMF·H₂O ( 3 ·DMF·H₂O) also offered an opportunity to understand the relationship between structural model and catalytic properties. Bimetallic dysprosium complexes 1 – 3 were demonstrated to be active catalysts for copolymerization of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and cyclohexene oxide (CHO) without cocatalysts. To the best of our knowledge, well‐defined catalyst 2 appears to be the first example of an air‐stable bimetallic dysprosium complex that is effective for CO₂/CHO copolymerization and the formation of the perfectly alternating poly(cyclohexenecarbonate) with a high molecular weight. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The chain coordination polymers [Na₂(μ-H₂O)(H₂O)CB[5]]Cl₂ · 6H₂O (I), [Na₃(μ-H₂O)₄(H₂O)₄(CNPy@CB[6])]Cl₃ · 8H₂O (II), and [Rb₂(μ-H₂O)₂(CNPy@CB[6])]Cl₂ · 8H₂O (III) were prepared by heating (110°C) of a mixture of sodium or rubidium chloride, cucurbit[n]uril (CB[n], where n = 5, 6), 4-cyanopyridine, and water. According to X-ray diffraction data, binding of polynuclear cations with CB[n] in I–III occurs through coordination of the oxygen atoms of the cucurbit[n]uril portals to alkali metal atoms. Complexes I–III of the above composition isolated to the solid phase as supramolecular compounds with CB[n] were structurally characterized for the first time.     

Synthesis and spectroscopic studies of 2,5-hexanedione bis(isonicotinylhydrazone) and its first raw transition metal complexes

New VO²⁺, Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺ Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺ complexes of 2,5-hexanedione bis(isonicotinylhydrazone) [H₂L] have been synthesized and characterized. The analyses confirmed the formulae: [VO(L)]·H₂O, [Mn₂(H₂L)Cl₂(H₂O)₆]Cl₂, [Co(L)(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O, [Ni(HL)(OAc)]·H₂O, [Cu(L)(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O, [Cu(L)]·2H₂O and [Zn(L)(H₂O)₂]. The formulae of [Ni(HL)(OAc)]·H₂O, [Zn(L)(H₂O)₂] and [Mn₂(H₂L)Cl₂(H₂O)₆]Cl₂, are supported by mass spectra. The molecular modeling of H₂L is drawn and showed intramolecular hydrogen bonding. The ligand releases two protons during reaction from the two amide groups (NHCO) and behaves as a binegative tetradentate (N₂O₂); good evidence comes from the ¹H NMR spectrum of [Zn(L)(H₂O)₂]. The ligand has a buffering range 10–12 and pK's of 4.62, 7.78 and 9.45. The magnetic moments and electronic spectra of all complexes provide a square-planar for [Cu(L)]·2H₂O, square-pyramidal for [VO(L)]·H₂O and octahedral for the rest. The ESR spectra support the mononuclear geometry for [VO(L)]·H₂O and [Cu(L)(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O. The thermal decomposition of the complexes revealed the outer and inner solvents where the end product in most cases is metal oxide.

Two cadmium(II) and two zinc(II) coordination complexes with diverse structural motifs, [Cd₂(HL)I₃H₂O] · H₂O ( 1 ), [Cd₂(H₂L)₂(H₂O)₄] · 2SO₄ · 14H₂O ( 2 ), [Zn₃(L′)₂(H₂O)₆] · 4H₂O · 2(NO₃) ( 3 ), and [Zn₃L'₂(H₂O)₂Cl₂] · H₂O ( 4 ) [H₂L = 1,1‐bis(5‐(pyrid‐2‐yl)‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)methane; H₂L′ = 1,1‐bis(5‐(pyrid‐2‐yl)‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)methanone] were synthesized through a hydrothermal method. These coordination complexes were characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, powder X‐ray diffraction (PXRD), FT‐IR spectroscopy, and photo‐luminescent experiments. Single crystal structural analysis revealed that 1 – 4 belong to polynuclear coordination compounds. PXRD analysis of 1 – 4 unambiguously confirmed the purity of the as‐synthesized coordination compounds. It is the first time to synthesize coordination compounds based on H₂L′, which reacted from the original material H₂L through in‐situ hydrothermal conditions. In addition, photo‐luminescent experiments revealed that 1 – 4 have real‐time sensing effects for benzaldehyde through fluorescence quenching. For 1 – 4 , the photo‐luminescent quenching effect for benzaldehyde was also compared and the coordination complexes 3 and 4 based on H₂L′ have higher photo‐luminescent quenching effect than compounds 1 and 2 .     

Low-dimensional compounds containing bioactive ligands. I: Crystal structure,spectroscopic, and thermal properties of the first row transition metal coordination compounds with clioquinol

Abstract  

Coordination compounds of first row transition metals from Mn to Zn with clioquinol (5-chloro-7-iodo-8-hydroxyquinoline, CQ) were prepared and characterized by infrared spectroscopy and thermal analysis. The composition of these compounds determined by elemental analysis is [M(CQ)₂(H₂O)₂] for Mn and Zn, [M(CQ)₂] for Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu, and NH₂(CH₃)₂[Ni(CQ)₃]·DMF·H₂O (DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide). X-ray structure analysis revealed that the [Ni(CQ)₂] complex is a molecular coordination compound with Ni(II) square-planarly coordinated by nitrogen and oxygen atoms of two trans-arranged bidentate molecules of clioquinol. On the other hand, NH₂(CH₃)₂[Ni(CQ)₃]·DMF·H₂O is an ionic compound containing three clioquinol molecules coordinated to the central atom in a deformed octahedral geometry thus forming a complex anion. Its negative charge is balanced by the dimethylammonium cation and the structure also contains solvated water and DMF molecules. Long-range interactions and hydrogen bonds in these two complexes were also investigated.     

An Effective Method to Construct Cluster‐based Frameworks with Multifarious Structures,Luminescence, and Sorption Properties

An effective method was developed for the synthesis of three cluster‐based frameworks with multifarious secondary building units (SBUs) and various structures, which were formulated as [Me₂NH₂]₂[Zn₁₀(BTC)₆(μ₃‐O)(μ₄‐O)(H₂O)₅] · 3DMA · 9H₂O ( FJI ‐ 3 ), [Me₂NH₂]₂[Zn₉(μ₃‐OH)₂(BTC)₆(H₂O)₃] · 5DMA · 6H₂O ( FJI ‐ 4 ) and [Me₂NH₂][Zn₃(μ₃‐OH)(BTC)₂DMF] · H₂O ( FJI ‐ 5 ) (H₃BTC = 1,3,5‐benzenetricarboxylic acid, DMA = N,N′‐dimethyl acetamide and DMF = N,N′‐dimethyl formamide), respectively. X‐ray structural analysis reveals that FJI ‐ 3 displays 3D highly porous metal‐organic framework with four kinds of microporous cages constructed by two paddle‐wheel Zn₂(CO₂)₄, trimeric Zn₃O(CO₂)₆, and tetrameric Zn₄O(CO₂)₆ SBUs. FJI ‐ 4 exhibits 3D microporous MOFs with a dodecahedral cavities built by paddle‐wheel Zn₂(CO₂)₄ and trimeric Zn₃O(CO₂)₆. FJI ‐ 5 shows 3D microporous MOFs with an 1D channel assembled by the Zn₃O(CO₂)₆ SBUs. In addition, the fluorescence and sorption properties in these cluster‐based frameworks were also investigated. Furthermore, the method employed in this work may provide an useful approach to the design and synthesis of novel cluster‐based frameworks.     

Synthesis,spectroscopic, and thermal analyses of trinuclear Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II) complexes with some sulfa derivatives

New bi- and trihomonuclear Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II) complexes with sulfa-guanidine Schiff bases have been synthesized for potential chemotherapeutic use. The complexes are characterized using elemental and thermal (TGA) analyses, mass spectra (MS), molar conductance, IR, ¹H-NMR, UV-Vis, and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra as well as magnetic moment measurements. The low molar conductance values denote non-electrolytes. The thermal behavior of these chelates shows that the hydrated complexes lose water of hydration in the first step followed by loss of coordinated water followed immediately by decomposition of the anions and ligands in subsequent steps. IR and ¹H-NMR data reveal that ligands are coordinated to the metal ions by two or three bidentate centers via the enol form of the carbonyl C=O group, enolic sulfonamide S(O)OH, and the nitrogen of azomethine. The UV-Vis and ESR spectra as well as magnetic moment data reveal that formation of octahedral [Mn₂L¹(AcO)₂(H₂O)₆] (1), [Co₂(L¹)₂(H₂O)₈] (2), [Ni₂L¹(AcO)₂(H₂O)₆] (3), [Mn₃L²(AcO)₃(H₂O)₉] (5), [Co₃L²(AcO)₃(H₂O)₉] · 4H₂O (6), [Ni₃L²(AcO)₃(H₂O)₉] · 7H₂O (7), [Mn₃L³(AcO)₃(H₂O)₆] (9), [Co₂(HL³)₂(H₂O)₈] · 4H₂O (10), [Ni₃L³(AcO)₃(H₂O)₉] (11), [Mn₃L⁴(AcO)₃(H₂O)₉] · H₂O (13), [Co₂(HL⁴)₂(H₂O)₈] · 5H₂O (14), and [Ni₃L⁴(AcO)₃(H₂O)₉] (15) while [Zn₂L¹(AcO)₂(H₂O)₂] (4), [Zn₃L²(AcO)₃(H₂O)₃] · 2H₂O (8), [Zn₃L³(AcO)₃(H₂O)₃] · 3H₂O (12), and [Zn₃L⁴(AcO)₃(H₂O)₃] · 2H₂O (16) are tetrahedral. The electron spray ionization (ESI) MS of the complexes showed isotope ion peaks of [M]⁺ and fragments supporting the formulation.
