| Abstract: | A new Co(II) diphosphonate compound, Co(HEDPH2)2] (4,4′-bipyH2)?·?H2O (1) has been successfully obtained by a rheological phase reaction at 80°C. Single-crystal diffraction analysis shows a 1-D chain structure and the 1-D chains are assembled via hydrogen bonds into a 3-D supramolecular structure with channels. The protonated 4,4′-bipy molecules are encapsulated in the channels. Magnetic study shows 1 to exhibit antiferromagnetic interaction in the 1D Co--O--P--O--Co chain. Crystal data for 1: monoclinic, space group Cc, a?=?15.754(6)?Å, b?=?14.457(5)?Å, c?=?10.020(4)?Å, β?=?92.024(6)°, V?=?2280.7(14)?Å3, Z?=?4. |
