Solvothermal reactions of Cd(II) or Mn(II) ions with 4'-(4-carboxylphenyl)-2,2':6',2{sup -}terpyridine acid (Hcpt) and thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (H{sub 2}tpd) resulted in the formation of two isostructrual coordination networks ([M{sub 2}(cpt){sub 2}(tpd)]·3.5H{sub 2}O){sub n} (M=Cd, 1; M=Mn, 2). These complexes have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, infrared spectra (IR), elemental analyses, and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). Complexes 1 and 2, formed by the cpt{sup −} and tpd{sup 2−} bidentate connectors, have a 3D framework with a 3-connected, uninodal 10{sup 3}-ths topology possessing an unusual eight-fold [4*2] interpenetration mode. In addition, the ths cage has a long intracage M⋯M distance. In contrast, only a 1D coordination network ([CdCl(cpt)]·3.75H{sub 2}O){sub n} (3) was obtained under similar conditions while in the absence of the H{sub 2}tpd ligand. Compound 3 is propagated only by the [CdCl(cpt)] unit, which illustrated that the incorporation of the cpt{sup −} and Cl{sup −} ligands to form a 1D network. The distinct ancillary anions (tpd{sup 2−} or Cl{sup −}) play a critical role in determining the coordination features and the network connectivity of metal ions. This work presents a successful route to preparing rare eight-fold [4*2] interpenetrated networks. - Highlights: • A ths-type network with an eight-fold [4*2] interpenetration mode is rare. • Combining elongated ligands facilitate the eight-fold interpenetrated networks. • This ths-type cage features longe intracage M⋯M distances. • The chloride anion cannot help the forming of 3D frameworks. • The integration of bulky and multi-carboxylate ligands helps the forming of ths-type MOFs.
