Diaquabis(pyridine-2-carboxylato-κ2N,O)zinc dimethylformamide hemisolvate

In the title compound, [Zn(C6H4NO2)2(H2O)2]·0.5C3H7NO, the ZnII ion is coordinated in a distorted octahedral N2O4 environment by two N,O-chelating pyridine-2-carboxylate ligands and two cis water molecules. The chelating pyridine-2-carboxylate ligands create two five-membered Zn/N/C/C/O rings, which form a dihedral angle of 86.4 (2)°. In the crystal, O—H...O hydrogen bonds link the complex molecules into a two-dimensional network parallel to (100). The dimethylformamide solvent molecule is disordered about a twofold rotation axis

Unprecedented Coordination Compounds with 4,4′-Diaminodiphenylethane as a Supramolecular Agent and Ditopic Ligand: Synthesis, Crystal Structures and Hirshfeld Surface Analysis

In this pioneering research, mononuclear coordination complexes and coordination polymers were obtained using the conformationally flexible ditopic ligand 4,4′-diaminodiphenylethane and different metal salts (nitrates, sulfates, tetrafluoroborates and perchlorates). Seven new products, including the mononuclear complexes [Cd(2,2′-bpy)3](ClO4)2](dadpe)(4,4′-bpy) (1), [Ni(dadpe)2(H2O)4](SO4).H2O (2), one-dimensional coordination polymers {[Zn(NO3)(dadpe)(dmf)2](NO3)}n (3), {[Cd(2,2′-bpy)2(dadpe)](ClO4)2}n (4), and two-dimensional coordination polymers, {[Cd(4,4′-bpy)2(H2O)2](ClO4)2(dadpe)(EtOH)2}n (5), {[Co(4,4′-bpy)2(H2O)2](BF4)2(dadpe)(EtOH)2}n (6) and {[Cd(adi)(dadpe)](H2adi)}n (7), (dadpe=4,4′-diaminodiphenylethane, 2,2′-bpy=2,2′-bipyridine, 4,4′-bpy=4,4′-bipyridine, H2adi=adipic acid) were produced. The synthesized compounds were characterized by FTIR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. The dadpe was recorded as a neutral guest in the crystals of mononuclear complex 1 and in coordination polymers 5 and 6. In compound 2, two dadpe ligands coordinate in a monodentate mode and occupy two trans-positions in the [Ni(H2O)4(dadpe)2]2+ octahedral complex cation. Coordination polymers 3 and 4 represent single chains originating from dadpe as a bidentate linker in both. The H-donor’s possibilities of amino groups were utilized in the interconnection of coordination chains into H-bonded networks via NH(NH2)···O hydrogen bonds. The isostructural coordination polymers 5 and 6 comprise similar cationic square grids [M(4,4′-bpy)2(H2O)2]2+ [M=Cd (5), M=Co (6)], with sql topology balanced by the charge-compensated anions, while dadpe and EtOH as neutral guests are situated in the interlayer space. The neutral 2D coordination network in 7 with the sql topology originates from both adi and dadpe linkers as bidentate-bridging ligands, and the neutral H2adi is entrapped as a guest in crystal lattice. The impact of different types of intermolecular interactions was evaluated by Hirshfeld surface analysis

Tuning Structures And Emissive Properties In A Series Of Zn(Ii) And Cd(Ii) Coordination Polymers Containing Dicarboxylic Acids And Nicotinamide Pillars

New coordination polymers are reported. All polymers were prepared from a blend of four dicarboxylic acids, three neutral nicotinamide ligands, and Zn(ii) or Cd(ii) salts. The acids included: malonic (H2mal), succinic (H2suc), adipic (H2adi), and 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic (H2bdc) acids, with all of them varying in length and rigidity of the carbon skeletons. The neutral ligands included two positional isomers, isonicotinamide (iso-nia) and nicotinamide (nia), and a nia thio-analogue, thionicotinamide (S-nia). The preparation resulted in eight Cd(ii) and four Zn(ii) coordination polymers: [Cd2(suc)(sucH)2(nia)4]n (1), {[Cd(suc)(nia)3]·H2O·dmf}n (2), {[Cd(adi)(iso-nia)2]·dmf}n (3), [Cd(adi)(iso-nia)2]n, (4), {[Zn(mal)(iso-nia)(H2O)]·dmf}n (5), {[Cd(mal)(iso-nia)(H2O)]·dmf}n (6), {[Zn(mal)(nia)(H2O)]·dmf}n (7), {[Cd(mal)(nia)(H2O)]·dmf}n (8), {[Zn(mal)(S-nia)(H2O)]·dmf}n (9), {[Zn(bdc)(nia)2]·dmf}n (10), {[Cd(bdc)(nia)2]·dmf}n (11), and nicotinamide-free {[Cd(bdc)(H2O)2(dmf)]·dmf}n (12). Compounds 1-4 and 12 consist of one-dimensional arrays, while compounds 5-11 are two-dimensional coordination arrays. The coordination cores in 1, 3, 4, 10, and 11 present {M2(COO)2} (M = Zn, Cd) binuclear clusters, while the networks of 2, 5-9 and 12 are built on mononuclear metal nodes with nicotinamide ligands acting as double or single pillars. The structure-confirmed single crystal to single crystal transformation of 3 into 4 was detected and reported. While 1 and 4 are solvent-free apohosts, the remaining solids acted as hosts of water and dmf solvent which are accommodated in the crystal lattices as coordinated ligands or lattice solvents. The new solids were characterized by IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction methods. The luminescence properties of six as-synthesized coordination polymers and of some activated products are reported. The influence of the metal, ligand, and solvent on tuning the structures and emission properties was monitored, and the most impressive effects were interpreted with the help of TD-DFT computations

From Pink To Blue And Back To Pink Again: Changing The Co(Ii) Ligation In A Two-Dimensional Coordination Network Upon Desolvation

Heating of a pink two-dimensional Co(ii) coordination network {[Co2(μ2-OH2)(bdc)2(S-nia)2(H2O)(dmf)]·2(dmf)·(H2O)}n (1) built from 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (H2bdc) residues and thionicotinamide (S-nia) ligands initiates a single-crystal-to-single-crystal transition accompanied by removal of both coordinated and co-crystallized solvents. In the dry blue form, [Co(bdc)(S-nia)]n (dry-1), the Co(ii) centers changed from an octahedral to a square pyramidal configuration

The magnetic data show the typical behavior of Co­(II) ions originating from pronounced zero-field splitting within the ground state with contributing effects from weak antiferromagnetic exchange interactions
