Six new coordination compounds based on rigid 5-(3-carboxy-phenyl)-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid: synthesis, structural variations and properties

Compounds 1–6 have rich structural chemistry ranging from mononuclear (1 and 2), one-dimensional (3 and 4), two-dimensional (5) to three-dimensional (6) structures.

Complexes and salts of the nitrogen-rich triazole–tetrazole hybrid ligand with alkali and alkaline earth metal cations: experimental and theoretical findings

A series of the triazole–tetrazole based compounds with Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺ and Ba²⁺ was obtained and fully characterised.

Influence of noncovalent interactions on the structures of metal–organic hybrids based on a [VO2(2,6-pydc)]− tecton with cations of imidazole, pyridine and its derivatives

Hydrogen-bonding has a profound effect on topologies, and various 1D (band, pillar or chain), 2D and 3D hydrogen bonding networks have been observed.
