Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) constructed from ZnII/CdII-2,2′-bipyridines and polycarboxylic acids: Synthesis, characterization and microstructural studies
摘要:
Metal-organic frameworks with the compositions [Zn(bpy)(bdc)(H2O)](n) 1, [Zn(bpy)(btec)(1/2)(H2O)](n) 2, [Cd(bpy)(bdc)(H2O)](n) 3 and [Cd(bpy)(btec)(1/2)(H2O)](n) 4 (H(2)bdc = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid = terephthalic acid, H(4)btec = 1,2.4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid and bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) have been synthesized and characterized using spectroscopic and single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. In these complexes, Zn-II/Cd-II-2,2'-bipyridine units and carboxylate anions exists as nodes and spacers respectively. An infinite 1D zig-zag chain structure is observed for both complexes I and 3, whereas complexes 2 and 4 display a 3D supramolecular architecture. The complexes are found to be photoluminescent, porous and show significant thermal stability. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
A novel coordination polymer [Cd(bpy)(tp)(H2O)](n) (1) has been prepared through hydrothermal reaction and structurally characterized, and the compound gives strong fluorescent emission. The structure of the compound consists of CdN2O4 octahedron linked through bridging terephthalate (tp) into 1D structure, and then a 3D supramolecular structure is formed adopting herringbone packing in the solid state through pi-pi stacking and hydrogen bonding interactions.
