Abstract

Five coordination polymers based on pyridine-tricarboxylate ligands formulated as [Zn(HL1)] (1), [Cd2(L1)(phen)2(OH)]·2H2O (2), [Co(HL1)(H2O)2] (3), [Co3(L1)2(H2O)8]·4(H2O) (4) and [Mn3(L2)2(4,4′-bpy)2(H2O)2] (5) (H3L1 = 4-(2,4-dicarboxylphenyl) picolinic acid, H3L2 = 5-(3′,5′-dicarboxylphenyl) nicotinic acid, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, 4,4′-bpy = 4,4′-bipyridine) were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. Compound 1 exhibits a 2D distorted square-grid network based on [Zn(μ-Ocarboxylate)(COO)]n chains. Compound 2 displays a 2D square-grid network based on tetranuclear [Cd43-OH)2(Ocarboxylate)2(COO)2] units in which Cd(ii) ions are bridged by the mixed bridges of (μ3-OH)2(μ-Ocarboxylate)2. Compound 3 exhibits a 2D network based on [Co(COO)]n chains in which Co(ii) ions are bridged by a single syn-anti carboxylate bridge (μ-COO). Compound 4 features a 3D framework based on 2D layers which are further interlinked by Co(ii) ions, containing [Co(COO)]n chains which Co(ii) ions are also bridged by a single syn-anti carboxylate bridge similar with that in 3. Compound 5 shows a 2D network based on trinuclear [Mn3(COO)6(H2O)2] units in which Mn(ii) ions are bridged by the mixed bridges of (μ-Ocarboxylate)(COO)2. These compounds have been characterized by IR spectra, TGA and powder XRD pattern. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibit intense luminescence properties in the solid state at room temperature. Magnetic studies for compounds 3-5 demonstrated that the single carboxylate bridge in 3 and 4 transmits weak antiferromagnetic interactions between Co(ii) ions while the mixed bridges of (μ-Ocarboxylate)(COO)2 transmit moderate antiferromagnetic interactions between Mn(ii) ions in 5.
