Metal–organic hybrid materials built with tetrachlorophthalate acid and different N-donor coligands: Structure diversity and photoluminescence

Journal Article · · Journal of Solid State Chemistry

Eight new metal–organic hybrid materials, namely {Cd(Tcph)(4,4′-bipy)_1_/_2} (1), {[Cd_2(Tcph)_2(1,4-bimb)_1_/_2(H_2O)_4]·H_2O} (2), {Cd_2(Tcph)_2(1,4-bmimb)_1_/_2(H_2O)_4} (3), {Cd(Tcph)(1,2-bmimb)} (4), {Cu(Tcph)(1,4-bimb)(H_2O)} (5), {[Co(Tcph)(1,4-bimb)_1_/_2(H_2O)_3]·(H_2O)} (6), {Zn(Tcph)(1,2-bimb)} (7), {Cu_2(Tcph)_2(1,2-bimb)(H_2O)_4} (8), where Tcph=tetrachlorophthalate acid, 4,4′-bipy=4,4′-bipyridine, 1,4-bimb=1,4-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene, 1,4-bmimb=1,4-bis(2-methylimidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene, 1,2-bimb=1,2-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)-benzene, 1,2-bmimb=1,2-bis(2-methylimidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene, have been synthesized and characterized. Their structures are determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and further characterized by infrared spectra (IR) and thermogravimetric (TG) analyses. Complex 1, 4 and 7 display 2D layer structures. 1 possesses two-dimensional sheet containing an unusual [Cd(Tcph)] chains linked by 4,4′-bipy co-ligand, while 4 and 7 hold the similar 4-connected 4{sup 4}-sql nets. Complex 2 and 3 feature a similar three dimensional (3D) internal compensation structure with a topology of {4"2·6"3·8}{sub 2}{6"3}. 5 is a novel 2-fold self-penetrating 3D network with 4-coordinated 6{sup 5}·8–CdSO{sub 4} subnets. The ladder-like chains of 6 are further connected through O–H···O interactions to yield a 3D supramolecular structure. 8 is a discrete tetranuclear complex. The thermal stabilities of 1–8 and the luminescent properties of 1–4 and 7 in the solid state are also discussed. - Graphical abstract: Structure diversity and photoluminescence of eight new metal–organic hybrid materials constructed by Tetrachlorophthalate acid and different N-donor coligands are discussed in the context. - Highlights: • Eight new coordination polymers were synthesized based on mix-ligand strategy. • Complex 2 and 3 feature a similar 3D structure with {4"2·6"3·8}{sub 2}{6"3} topology. • Seven coordination modes of tetrachlorophthalic anions have been found.
