Zn(II) coordination polymers with flexible V-shaped dicarboxylate ligand: Syntheses, helical structures and properties
Abstract
Hydrothermal reactions of 2,2‧-[hexafluoroisopropylidenebis(p-phenyleneoxy)]diacetic acid (H2L) and zinc ions in the presence of N-donor ancillary ligands afford four novel coordination polymers, namely, [Zn2(μ2-OH)(μ4-O)0.5(L)]·0.5H2O (1), [Zn(L)(2,2‧-bipy)(H2O)] (2), [Zn3(L)3(phen)2]·H2O (3) and [Zn2(L)2(4,4‧-bipy)] (4) (2,2‧-bipy=2,2‧-bipyridine; 4,4‧-bipy=4,4‧-bipyridine; phen=1,10-phenanthroline). Their structures have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, elemental analyses, IR spectra, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and thermogravimetric (TG) analyses. Complex 1 shows a 3-D clover framework consisting of [Zn4(μ4-O)(μ2-OH)2]4+ clusters, and exhibits a novel (3,8)-connected topological net with the Schläfli symbol of {3·4·5}2{34·44·52·66·710·82}, and contains double-stranded and two kinds of meso-helices. 2 displays a helical chain structure, which is further extended via hydrogen bonds into a 3-D supramolecular structure with meso-helix chains. 3 displays a 2-D {44·62} parallelogram structure, which is further extended via hydrogen bonds into a 3-D supramolecular structure with single-stranded helical chains. 4 shows a 2-D {44·62} square structure with left- and right-handed helical chains. Moreover, the luminescent properties of 1-4 have been investigated.
