Alkali and alkaline earth coordination polymers constructed from benzene-1,2,4,5-tetracarboxylic acid and flexible dicarboxylate acid ligands: syntheses, structures and spectroscopic and thermal properties

Two new metal coordination complexes, namely, poly[aqua(μ₆-benzene-1,2,4,5-tetracarboxylic acid-κ⁸O¹:O¹,O²:O^2':O⁴:O⁴,O⁵:O^5')(μ-but-2-enedioato-κ²O¹:O⁴)potassium(I)], [K₂(C₄H₂O₄)(C₁₀H₆O₈)(H₂O)₂]_n or [K₂(fum)(H₄btec)(H₂O)₂]_n, (1), and poly[aqua(μ₈-2,5-dicarboxybenzene-1,4-dicarboxylato-κ¹²O¹:O^1',O²:O²,O^2':O^2':O⁴:O^4',O⁵:O⁵,O^5':O^5')(μ-ethanedioato-κ⁴O¹,O²:O^1',O^2')strontium(II)], [Sr₂(C₂O₄)(C₁₀H₄O₈)(H₂O)₂]_n or [Sr₂(ox)(H₂btec)(H₂O)₂]_n, (2) (H₄btec = benzene-1,2,4,5-tetracarboxylic acid, H₂btec = 2,5-dicarboxybenzene-1,4-dicarboxylate, fum = fumarate and ox = oxalate), have been obtained under hydrothermal conditions by reacting the different alkali and alkaline earth metal salts with H₄btec, fumaric acid (H₂fum) and oxalic acid (H₂ox). Complexes (1) and (2) were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and thermogravimetic analysis-differential scanning calorimetry (TGA-DSC). Complex (1) displays a two-dimensional (2D) layer with the K⁺ ion in a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal geometry and exhibits a uninodal 6-connected hxl/Shubnikov plane net (3,6) with {3⁶.4⁶.5³} topology. Complex (2) displays a three-dimensional (3D) network structure, in which the Sr²⁺ ion is in a distorted monocapped square antiprism geometry. The framework possess a binodal (5,8)-connected net with the Schläfli symbol {3².4¹⁰.5⁸.6⁴.7⁴}{3².4⁶.5²}₂. The 3D Hirshfeld surfaces and 2D fingerprint plots show that the main interactions are the O...H/H...O intermolecular interactions. Moreover, the thermal decompositions of (1) and (2) in the temperature range 303-1273 K revealed that they both decompose in three steps and transform to the corresponding metal oxide.

A series of multidimensional MOFs incorporating a new N-heterocyclic building block: 5,5′-di(pyridin-4-yl)-3,3′-bi(1,2,4-triazole)

By using a new N-heterocyclic building block: 4,4′-H₂dbpt, six novel coordination polymers with diversiform connectivity from one to three dimensional were constructed and characterized by X-ray crystallography successfully.

Structural diversity of five new bitriazole-based complexes: luminescence, sorption, and magnetic properties

Employing a new bitriazole ligand, five complexes were assembled that display diverse structures, selective CO₂/CH₄ adsorption, luminescent sensing, and antiferromagnetic properties.

A one-dimensional coordination polymer of 5-(pyridin-2-yl)-3,3'-bi(4H-1,2,4-triazole) with Cd(NO3)2

In the title coordination polymer, catena-poly[[(methanol-κO)(nitrato-κO)cadmium(II)]-μ-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-5-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)-4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-ido], [Cd(C9H6N7)(NO3)(CH3OH)]n, the asymmetric unit is composed of one Cd(II) centre, one nitrate anion, one deprotonated 5-(pyridin-2-yl)-3,3'-bi(4H-1,2,4-triazole) ligand, denoted HBPT(-), and one coordinated methanol molecule. Each Cd(II) ion shows an octahedral geometry and is surrounded by four N atoms from two HBPT(-) ligands in the equatorial plane, and by two O atoms from a monodentate nitrate ligand and a methanol ligand. The structure is a one-dimensional polymeric chain, which is further extended to a three-dimensional supramolecular network via a combination of hydrogen-bonding and aromatic stacking interactions.
