Project description:The reaction of copper nitrate with succinic acid (succH) and N,N,N',N'-tetra-methyl-ethylenedi-amine (TMEDA) in basic solution produces the complex catena-poly[[[(N,N,N',N'-tetra-methyl-ethylenedi-amine-κ2 N,N')copper(II)]-μ-succinato-κ2 O 1:O 4] tetra-hydrate], {[Cu(C4H4O4)(C6H16N2)]·4H2O} n or {[Cu(succ)(tmeda)]·4H2O} n . Each carboxyl-ate group of the succinate ligand coordinates to a CuII atom in a monodentate fashion, giving rise to a distorted square-planar geometry. The succinate ligands bridge the CuII centres, forming one-dimensional polymeric chains. Hydrogen bonds between the ligands and water mol-ecules link these chains into sheets that lie parallel to the ac plane. Hirshfeld surface analysis, d norm and two-dimensional fingerprint plots were examined to verify the contributions of the different inter-molecular contacts within the supra-molecular structure.
Project description:Three new copper coordination compounds derived from 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)propionic acid (dmpa) and hexamethylenetetramine (hmta) were obtained and their crystal structures were determined. The stoichiometry of the reagents applied in the syntheses reflects the metal to ligand molar ratio in the formed solid products. Due to the multiple coordination modes of the used ligands, wide structural diversity was achieved among synthesized compounds, i.e., mononuclear [Cu(dmp)2(hmta)2(H2O)] (1), dinuclear [Cu2(dmp)4(hmta)2] (2), and 1D coordination polymer [Cu2(dmp)4(hmta)]n (3). Their supramolecular structures are governed by O-H•••O and O-H•••N hydrogen bonds. The compounds were characterized in terms of absorption (UV-Vis and IR) and thermal properties. The relationships between structural features and properties were discussed in detail. Owing to discrepancies in the coordination mode of a dmp ligand, bidentate chelating in 1, and bidentate bridging in 2 and 3, there is a noticeable change in the position of the bands corresponding to the stretching vibrations of the carboxylate group in the IR spectra. The differences in the structures of the compounds are also reflected in the nature and position of the UV-Vis absorption maxima, which are located at lower wavelengths for 1.
Project description:The title coordination polymer, [Cu(C(2)H(4)NO(2))(2)](n), is two-dimensional and consists of a distorted octa-hedral copper coordination polyhedron with two bidentate glycine ligands chelating the metal through the O and N atoms in a trans-square-planar configuration. The two axial coordination sites are occupied by carbonyl O atoms of neighbouring glycine mol-ecules. The Cu-O distances for the axial O atoms [2.648 (2) and 2.837 (2) Å] are considerably longer than both the Cu-O [1.9475 (17) and 1.9483 (18) Å] and Cu-N [1.988 (2) and 1.948 (2) Å] distances in the equatorial plane, which indicates a strong Jahn-Teller effect. In the crystal, the two-dimensional networks are arranged parallel to (001) and are linked via N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional arrangement.
Project description:A variety of nanoparticles (NPs) including Ag, Au, Pd, Cr and mixed Cu/Fe have been synthesized in a non-activated (without solvent removal) one dimensional coordination polymer (CP) of Zn(II) via two different mechanisms, acid formation and redox activity of the framework. Main driving force to grow these NPs within the cavities of CP is the presence of free oxygens of one of the monodentate carboxylate groups of BDC ligand. These free oxygens act as anchoring sites for the metal ions of the metal precursors. Chemical and physical characteristics of the NPs within the framework have been evaluated by the high resolution transmission electron microscopic (HRTEM) images. Excluding Ag(0) and Pd(0) other NPs are present as combinations of their elemental as well as oxide forms (Au/Au2O3, Cr/Cr2O3/CrO2 and Cu/Cu2O, Fe/FeO). Synthesized Ag NPs within the framework show remarkable antibacterial efficacy at extremely low concentrations. Ag, Au and Cu/Fe NPs show ferromagnetic properties within the framework at room temperature. This polymer has potential to sequester highly toxic Cr(VI) to non toxic Cr(0), Cr(III) and Cr(IV) species.
Project description:A one-dimensional ladder-type coordination polymer, poly[[(μ2-hydroxido)(μ2-1H-pyrazole-3,5-di-carboxyl-ato)gallium(III)] monohydrate], [Ga(C5H2N2O4)(OH)(H2O)] n or [Ga(HPDC)(OH)(H2O)] n , I, isotypic with a V3+ coordination polymer previously reported by Chen et al. [J. Coord. Chem. (2008). 61, 3556-3567] was prepared from Ga3+ and pyrazole-3,5-di-carb-oxy-lic acid monohydrate (H3PDC·H2O). Compound I was isolated using three distinct experimental methods: hydro-thermal (HT), microwave-assisted (MWAS) and one-pot (OP) and the crystallite size should be fine-tuned according to the method employed. The coordination polymeric structure is based on a dimeric Ga3+ moiety comprising two μ2-bridging hydroxide groups, which are inter-connected by HPDC2- anionic organic linkers. The close packing of individual polymers is strongly directed by the supra-molecular inter-actions, namely several O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.
Project description:A one-dimensional nickel(II) coordination polymer with the mixed ligands 6-fluoro-nicotinate (6-Fnic) and 4,4'-bi-pyridine (4,4'-bpy), namely, catena-poly[[di-aqua-bis-(6-fluoro-pyridine-3-carboxyl-ato-κO)nickel(II)]-μ-4,4'-bi-pyri-dine-κ2 N:N'] trihydrate], {[Ni(6-Fnic)2(4,4'-bpy)(H2O)2]·3H2O} n , (1), was prepared by the reaction of nickel(II) sulfate hepta-hydrate, 6-fluoro-nicotinic acid (C6H4FNO2) and 4,4'-bi-pyridine (C10H8N2) in a mixture of water and ethanol. The nickel(II) ion in 1 is octa-hedrally coordinated by the O atoms of two water mol-ecules, two O atoms from O-monodentate 6-fluoro-nicotinate ligands and two N atoms from bridging 4,4'-bi-pyridine ligands, forming a trans isomer. The bridging 4,4'-bi-pyridine ligands connect symmetry-related nickel(II) ions into infinite one-dimensional polymeric chains running in the [10] direction. In the extended structure of 1, the polymeric chains and lattice water mol-ecules are connected into a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network via strong O-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of distinct hydrogen-bond ring motifs: octa-meric R 8 8(24) and hexa-meric R 8 6(16) loops.
Project description:The title compound, poly[(μ 3-formato)(μ 4-oxalato)terbium(III)], [Tb(CHO2)(C2O4)] n , is a three-dimensional coordination polymer, and is isotypic with the La(III), Ce(III) and Sm(III) analogues. The asymmetric unit contains one Tb(III) ion, one formate anion (CHO2 (-)) and half of an oxalate anion (C2O4 (2-)), the latter being completed by application of inversion symmetry. The Tb(III) ion is nine-coordinated in a distorted tricapped trigonal-prismatic manner by two chelating carboxyl-ate groups from two C2O4 (2-) ligands, two carboxyl-ate oxygen atoms from another two C2O4 (2-) ligands and three oxygen atoms from three CHO2 (-) ligands, with the Tb-O bond lengths and the O-Tb-O bond angles ranging from 2.4165 (19) to 2.478 (3) Å and 64.53 (6) to 144.49 (4)°, respectively. The CHO2 (-) and C2O4 (2-) anions adopt μ 3-bridging and μ 4-chelating-bridging coordination modes, respectively, linking adjacent Tb(III) ions into a three-dimensional 12-connected fcu topology with point symbol (3(24).4(36).5(6)). The title compound exhibits thermal stability up to 623 K, and also displays strong green photoluminescence in the solid state at room temperature.
Project description:A new one-dimensional NiII coordination polymer of 1,3,5-tris-(imidazol-1-ylmeth-yl)benzene, namely catena-poly[[aqua-(sulfato-κO)hemi(μ-ethane-1,2-diol-κ2O:O')[μ3-1,3,5-tris-(1H-imidazol-1-ylmeth-yl)benzene-κ3N3,N3',N3'']nickel(II)] ethane-1,2-diol monosolvate monohydrate], {[Ni(SO4)(C18H18N6)(C2H6O2)0.5(H2O)]·C2H6O2·H2O} n , was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The NiII cation is coordinated by three N atoms of three different 1,3,5-tris-(imidazol-1-ylmeth-yl)benzene ligands, one O atom of an ethane-1,2-diol mol-ecule, by a sulfate anion and a water mol-ecule, forming a distorted octa-hedral NiN3O3 coordination geometry. The tripodal 1,3,5-tris-(imidazol-1-ylmeth-yl)benzene ligands link the NiII cations, generating metal-organic chains running along the [100] direction. Adjacent chains are further connected by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, resulting in a two-dimensional supermolecular architecture running parallel to the (001) plane. Another water mol-ecule and a second ethane-1,2-diol mol-ecule are non-coordinating and are linked to the coordinating sulfate ions via O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
Project description:The title compound, [SnBr4(C4H8S2)] {systematic name: catena-poly[[tetrabromidotin(IV)]-μ-1,4-dithiane-κ(2) S:S']}, represents the first 1,4-di-thiane complex with tin as coordination centre. The asymmetric unit consist of half a formula unit with the tin(IV) atom at the centre of symmetry at 0,0,1/2 (Wyckoff symbol b) and a centrosymmetric 1,4-di-thiane mol-ecule with the centre of symmetry in 1/2,0,1 (Wyckoff symbol c). The tin(IV) atom is coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral manner by the four bromine atoms and two sulfur atoms of two 1,4-di-thiane mol-ecules in a trans-position. Sn-Br [mean value: 2.561 (5) Å] and Sn-S distances [2.6546 (6) Å] are in the typical range for octa-hedrally coordinated tin(IV) atoms and the di-thiane mol-ecule adopts a chair conformation. The one-dimensional polymeric chains propagate along the [101] direction with weak inter-molecular Br⋯Br [3.5724 (4) Å] between parallel chains and weak Br⋯H inter-actions [2.944-2.993 Å] within the chains.
Project description:A 6-chloro-nicotinate (6-Clnic) salt of a one-dimensional cationic nickel(II) coordination polymer with 4,4'-bi-pyridine (4,4'-bpy), namely, catena-poly[[[tetra-aqua-nickel(II)]-μ-4,4'-bi-pyridine-κ2 N:N'] bis-(6-chloro-nicotinate) tetra-hydrate], {[Ni(C10H8N2)(H2O)4](C6H3ClNO2)2·4H2O} n or {[Ni(4,4'-bpy)(H2O)4](6-Clnic)2·4H2O} n , (1), was prepared by the reaction of nickel(II) sulfate hepta-hydrate, 6-chloro-nicotinic acid and 4,4'-bi-pyridine in a mixture of water and ethanol. The mol-ecular structure of 1 comprises a one-dimensional polymeric {[Ni(4,4'-bpy)(H2O)4]2+} n cation, two 6-chloro-nicotinate anions and four water mol-ecules of crystallization per repeating polymeric unit. The nickel(II) ion in the polymeric cation is octa-hedrally coordinated by four water mol-ecule O atoms and by two 4,4'-bi-pyridine N atoms in the trans position. The 4,4'-bi-pyridine ligands act as bridges and, thus, connect the symmetry-related nickel(II) ions into an infinite one-dimensional polymeric chain extending along the b-axis direction. In the extended structure of 1, the polymeric chains of {[Ni(4,4'-bpy)(H2O)4]2+} n , the 6-chloro-nicotinate anions and the water mol-ecules of crystallization are assembled into an infinite three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network via strong O-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of the representative hydrogen-bonded ring motifs: tetra-meric R 2 4(8) and R 4 4(10) loops, a dimeric R 2 2(8) loop and a penta-meric R 4 5(16) loop.
