A zinc coordination polymer, [ZnL(H2O)(2)]center dot 2(H2O)(CH3OH)}(n) (1) (H2L = 4-(2-picolinylhydrazide) methylene benzoic acid), consisting of a trapeziform chain was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, UV, IR, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Single-crystal structure of this compound reveals that the coordination geometry of zinc is a slightly distorted trigonal bipyramid and the trapeziform chains are further assembled into a 3-D network via hydrogen-bonding and pi-pi interactions. A water-methanol cluster, (H2O)(8)(CH3OH)(2), is observed in this complex. The electronic absorption spectrum was attributed to intra-ligand electronic transitions. The spectrum of 1 indicates strong fluorescence at lambda(ex) = 282nm in the fluorescence spectrum at room temperature; the fluorescence gradually quenches with rising temperature. With increasing scan rate, the reversible redox process of Zn2+/Zn+ changes into a quasi-reversible one.
