Three new d10 coordination polymers based on 2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole ligand: Synthesis, structures and properties
摘要:
Three coordination polymers containing 2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole (PyHBIm) ligand, namely {[Zn-3(PyBIm)(3)(PyHBIm)(2)(tma)(H2O)]center dot H2O}(n) (1), [zn(PyHBIm)(oba)](n) (2), [Cd(PyHBIm)(oba)](n) (3), (tma = trimesate, oba=4,4'-oxybis-(benzoate)), have been prepared through hydrothermal reaction. Compound 1 exhibits one-dimensional (1D) helical structure. However, compounds 2 and 3 display 1D meso-helical structure. These ID structures are further assembled into three-dimensional (3D) networks through aromatic pi-pi stacking interactions and hydrogen bonding interactions. Moreover they all exhibit strong photoluminescence at room temperature and may be good candidates for potential luminescence materials. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
