The title compound 5-allyl-2,3-dihydro-9-(2-hydroxy-5-oxocyclopent-1-enyl)-cyclopenta[b]chromen-1(9H)-one monohydrate(C20H18O4.H2O,Mr = 340.36) was synthesized and crystallized.It crystallizes in the triclinic system,space group P with a = 8.5840(17),b = 8.7027(17),c = 11.561(2),α = 89.69(3),β = 74.33(3),γ = 86.13(3)°,V = 829.6(3)3,Z = 2,Dc = 1.363 g/cm3,MoKa radiation(λ = 0.71073 ),F(000) = 360,μ = 0.098 mm-1,the final R = 0.0430 and wR = 0.1008 for 2957 observed reflections with(I > 2σ(I)).X-ray analysis reveals that atoms C(1),C(2),C(3),C(4),C(5) and O(1) on the new pyran ring are coplanar,which is obviously different from the half-chair or boat conformations of other similar compounds.

Two new PbII metal-organic coordination polymers,namely,[Pb(tda)]n(1) and [Pb(tda)(phen)]n(2)(H2 tda = thiodiglycolic acid,phen = 1,10-phenanthroline),were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by elemental analysis,IR,UV spectra,TG technique and X-ray crystallography.Complex 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic system,space group Iba2 with a = 9.0417(14),b = 19.360(4),c = 7.5741(12),C4H4O4PbS,Mr = 355.32,V = 1325.8(4)3,Dc = 3.560 g·cm-3,F(000) = 1264,μ(MoKa) = 25.711 mm-1,S = 1.086 and Z = 8.The final refinement gave R = 0.0387 and wR = 0.0986 for 3077 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I).Complex 1 is a 2D infinite grid-like(4,4) topological structure constructed by PbII atoms and tda anions,in which tda ligands exhibit bis(syn,syn-bridging bidentate,chelating-bridging tetradentate) mode.Complex 2 crystallizes in the triclinic system,space group P1 with a = 8.3570(17),b = 8.7591(18),c = 10.895(2),α = 76.00(3),β = 80.50(3),γ = 77.61(3)°,C16H12N O4PbS,Mr = 535.53,V = 750.4(3)3,Dc = 2.370 g·cm-3,F(000) = 504,μ(MoKa) = 11.405 mm-1,S = 1.018 and Z = 2.The final refinement gave R = 0.0332 and wR = 0.0629 for 3360 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I).Complex 2 is a 1D chain structure,in which phen ligands are attached on both sides of the 1D chain and tda ligand exhibits a bis(syn,syn-bridging bidentate,chelating tridentate) mode.Finally,complex 2 is extended into a 2D supramolecular structure by strong π···π stacking interactions.

Syntheses, Crystal Structures and Properties of Two Supramolecules Assembled from Weak Interactions

Two complexes, [Cu2(Htdb)4(H2O)2] (1) and [Cd(bipy)2(Hmcmbc)2] (2) (H2tdb = 2,2-thiodibenzoic acid, H2mcmbc = m-(carboxyl-methyloxy)-benzenecarboxylic acid, bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine), have been prepared, and were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Structures indicate that complex 1 is a single molecule, and 2 is a one-dimensional chain. Their two-and three-dimensional frameworks are constructed through hydrogen bonding, π…π or C–H…π stacking, and such other weak interactions. The cyclic voltametric behavior of complex 1 and luminescence property of complex 2 were investigated. 1 belongs to the triclinic system, space group P with a = 7.8607(6), b = 11.7619(9), c = 15.3481(12) , α = 109.3670(10), β = 92.4420(10), γ = 92.0450(10)°, V = 1335.65(18) 3, Mr = 1256.26, Dc = 1.5619(2) g/cm3, F(000) = 642, μ = 1.029 mm–1, Z = 1, the final R = 0.0289 and wR = 0.0763 for 5199 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I).
