Two new Cd(II) coordination polymers, [Cd₂(btc)(dpe)_1.5(H₂O)]_n (1) and [Cd₂(btc)(bpp)(H₂O)]_n (2), were prepared by the hydrothermal reaction of cadmium nitrate with H₄btc (H₄btc = biphenyl-2,2′,4,4′-tetracarboxylic acid) in the presence of 1,2-di(4-pyridyl)ethylene (dpe) and = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)propane (bpp), respectively, structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and further characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. In 1, btc^4? connect six Cd²⁺ ions, forming a 3-D (3,3,6)-connected [Cd₂(btc)] net, and further connected by 1-D [Cd(dpe)]_n chains to construct the final (4,5,6)-connected (4².5².6⁵.7)(4³.6².7)(4⁵.5³.6⁴.7².8) net. In 2, a 3-D [Cd₂(btc)] net is also constructed from btc^4? connecting six Cd²⁺ ions, giving a 3-D (3,4,7)-connected network. The overall structure of 2 can be regarded as a (4,4,6)-connected (4⁵.6⁴) (4².5.6².8) (4³.5⁴.6⁷.7) framework with bpp linking adjacent Cd ions. Structural comparisons show that the secondary auxiliary N-donors have important effects on the final structure and properties. Photoluminescent properties of 1 and 2 are also discussed.

Influence of the size of aromatic chelate ligands on the one-dimensional structures of copper(II) 4,4′-oxy-bis(benzoate) coordination polymers

Two one-dimensional coordination polymers, [Cu(Oba)(TATP)] _n · nH₂O (I) and [Cu(Oba)(DPPZ)(H₂O)]n · nH₂O (II) (Oba is 4.4′-oxy-bis(benzoate), TATP is 1,4,8,9-tetranitrogen-tris(phene), DPPZ is dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine), have been synthesized under similar conditions and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra, and X-ray crystal structure. Compounds I and II are based on topologically identical chains, where the copper centers chelated by the amine ligands are linked by the Oba bridges, as well as the coordination modes of the Oba ligands. However, the angles between the individual links and the environment of the copper centers are substantially different between the two compounds and were found to be primarily influenced by the sizes of the rigid aromatic chelate ligands. The article is published in the original.     

Synthesis,structures and magnetic properties of four 3D heterometallic cobalt(II)–barium(II) coordination polymers

Four heterometallic complexes, namely {[CoBa(2,5-pdc)₂(H₂O)₃]_n·2nH₂O} (1), [CoBa(2,5-pdc)₂(H₂O)₄]_n (2), [CoBa(2,5-pdc)₂(H₂O)₅]_n (3) and [CoBa₂(2,5-pdc)₃(μ₂-H₂O)₂(H₂O)₄]_n (4) (2,5-H₂pdc?=?pyridine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid), have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized both structurally and magnetically. All four complexes exhibit 3D frameworks, in which the Co(II) centers are chelated by pyridine nitrogen and carboxyl oxygen atoms in a five-membered ring. The Ba(II) centers are chelated and bridged by carboxyl oxygen atoms to extend the structures into 3D frameworks. The networks of the complexes can be controlled via rationally choosing the appropriate ligand and tuning the ratio of the two types of metal centers. The magnetic properties of complexes 1, 2 and 4 have been investigated from 2 to 300 K.

Both complex 1 and 2 show metal–organic chain structure, and the adjacent chains are further linked by π?π and C–H?π interactions for 1 and hydrogen bonds and π?π interactions for 2 to form 3D supramolecular structure. In complex 3, two Zn1 and two Zn2 atoms appear alternately and are bridged by sdpa⁴⁻ anion ligands to form an infinite Zn-sdpa chain. Such chains are further linked together through 4,4′-bpy ligands in four orientations to form a robust 3D metal–organic network. In compound 4, a 3D Cd-sdpa metal–organic network is accomplished through sdpa⁴⁻ anion ligands, and further stabilized by 4,4′-bpy in six orientations. Their luminescence and thermal analysis have also been investigated.

The [M(4)(μ(3)-OH)(2)] cores act as 7- and 9-connected nodes and are extended through ina linkers to highly-connected frameworks with vmr net for 1 and bct-9-P2(1)/c net for 2. Both the desolvated frameworks display effective gas sorption capacities of N(2) and H(2) with Langmuir surface areas of 546 and 917 m(2) g(-1) for 1 and 2, respectively. Magnetic studies show spin canting and spin-glass behaviours with T(g) = 6.0 and 15.0 K for 1 and 2, respectively. The intra- and inter-tetramer coupling interactions and cooperative magnetic correlation greatly influence the bulk magnetic behaviours in this system.
