Cd(II) coordination polymers constructed from flexible disulfide ligand: Solvothermal syntheses, structures and luminescent properties

A three-dimensional CdIIcoordination framework: poly[di-μ2-aqua-{μ2-1,4-bis[(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene-κ2N4:N4′}di-μ3-terephthalato-κ3O:O′:O′′-dicadmium(II)]

The title CdIIcoordination polymer, [Cd(C10H8O4)(C12H12N6)0.5(H2O)]n, has been obtained by the hydrothermal method and studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, IR spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. The compound forms a novel three-dimensional framework with 3,8-connected three-dimensional binodal {4.52}2{42.510.612.7.83} topology. An investigation of its photoluminescence properties shows that the compound exhibits a strong fluorescence emission in the solid state at room temperature.

A two-dimensional Cd(II) coordination polymer with 2,2'-(disulfanediyl)dibenzoate and 1,10-phenanthroline ligands

In poly[[μ3-2,2'-(disulfanediyl)dibenzoato-κ(5)O:O,O':O'',O'''](1,10-phenanthroline-κ(2)N,N')cadmium(II)], [Cd(C14H8O4S2)(C12H8N2)]n, the asymmetric unit contains one Cd(II) cation, one 2,2'-(disulfanediyl)dibenzoate anion (denoted dtdb(2-)) and one 1,10-phenanthroline ligand (denoted phen). Each Cd(II) centre is seven-coordinated by five O atoms of bridging/chelating carboxylate groups from three dtdb(2-) ligands and by two N atoms from one phen ligand, forming a distorted pentagonal-bipyramidal geometry. The Cd(II) cations are bridged by dtdb(2-) anions to give a two-dimensional (4,4) layer. The layers are stacked to generate a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture via a combination of aromatic C-H···π and π-π interactions. The thermogravimetric and luminescence properties of this compound were also investigated.

A fivefold interpenetrating diamondoid three-dimensional metal-organic framework constructed from benzene-1,4-diacetic acid and flexible triazole derivatives: poly[[(μ2-benzene-1,4-diacetato-κ2O:O){μ2-1,4-bis[(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene-κ2N4:N4'}zinc(II)] monohydrate]

In the title mixed-ligand metal-organic polymeric compound, {[Zn(C10H8O4)(C12H14N6)]·H2O}n, the asymmetric unit contains a divalent Zn(II) cation lying on a twofold axis, one half of a fully deprotonated benzene-1,4-diacetate (PBEA) ligand, one half of a 1,4-bis[(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene (BTX) ligand and a water molecule, also lying on a twofold axis. Each Zn(II) centre is surrounded by two O-donor atoms from monodentate carboxylate groups belonging to two different PBEA(2-) ligands and by two triazole N-donor atoms from two different BTX ligands. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the compound has a fivefold interpenetrating diamondoid three-dimensional metal-organic framework.

A novel pentanuclear zinc coordination polymer with one-dimensional chain: synthesis, structure and luminescent property

One interesting pentanuclear zinc coordination polymer, [Zn(5)(OH)(2)(DTBA)(4)](n) (1) (DTBA=2,2'-dithiobisbenzoic acid) has been synthesized by hydrothermal method, and characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction, elemental analyses, IR and TGA. The pentanuclear zinc unit exhibits pentagon configuration, which acts as secondary building unit to construct a one-dimensional chain structure by DTBA ligands. As far as we know, this kind of pentagon zinc unit is unprecedented. In addition, upon the excitation at 390 nm, the blue-fluorescence at 448 nm of the compound 1 was observed.
