Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Novel Zinc Phosphonate Compound： [Zn（phen）（m-OOCC6H4PO3H）]

A novel zinc（H） metal phosphonate compound [Zn（phen）（m-OOCC6H4PO3H）] 1 （phen = phenanthroline） has been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. Single-crystal X-ray structure analysis reveals that compound 1 belongs to the triclinic system, space group P1 with a = 9.3356（19）, b = 10.203（2）,c = 10.743（2）A,α = 76.3030（70）, β= 69.2317（51）, y = 84.3833（74）°,V = 929.4（3） ,A3, Z = 2, C2OH15N2O5PZn, Mr = 459.68, Dc = 1.643 g/cm^3,μ= 1.444, mm^-1, F（000） = 468, the final R = 0.0330 and wR = 0.0848. In the structure, the central ion Zn（H） is five-coordinated, linking three O atoms with one from carboxyl and the other two from phosphonyl group. The remained two coordinate sites were occupied by two N atoms from one phen molecule to form the asymmetric unit. Then every two adjacent asymmetric units are bridged by the O atoms from phosphonate group and carboxyl to give rise to a 1D chain along the b axis. These chains are constructed by weak π-π stacking interactions and C-H…π interactions to generate a 3D supramolecular framework.     

Synthesis and Single-crystal Structure of a One-dimensional Zinc（Ⅱ） Phosphonate： [Zn3（PhPO3）2（PhPO3H）2（Phen）2]n

A new Zn（II） phosphonate complex, [Zn3（PhPO3）2（PhPO3H）2（Phen）2]n （Phen = 1,10-phenanthroline）, has been synthesized and structurally determined by X-ray single-crystal diffraction. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group C2/c with a = 14.997（3）, b = 18.108（4）, c = 17.237（3） A, β = 96.61（3）°, V = 4649.9（16） A3, Z = 4, C48H38N4O12P4Zn3, Mr = 1182.87, Dc = 1.690 g/cm3^,μ = 1.743 mm^-1, F（000） = 2400, the final R = 0.0363 and wR = 0.0963. In the structure, the connectivity between two 5-coordinated Zn（II） atoms and four phosphonates as well as two Phen ligands form a Zn2（PhPO3H）2（PhPO3）2（Phen）2 unit, and such a neighboring unit is bridged by 4-coordinated Zn（II） to give rise to a 1D chain along the c axis. The π-π stacking interactions between Phen rings assemble adjacent chains packed together to form a 3D supermolecular architecture.
