Manganese and cobalt para-benzenedicarboxylate coordination polymers with 3-pyridylisonicotinamide coligands: Different layer topologies and a self-penetrated supramolecular network

摘要

A series of divalent manganese and cobalt para-benzenedicarboxylate coordination polymers was hydrothermally prepared utilizing the neutral 3-pyridylisonicotinamide (3-pina) tethering coligand. Single crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that [M(bdc)(3-pina)(2)](n) (1, M = Mn; 2, M = Co, bdc = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) coordination polymer solids display isostructural (4,4) grid topologies constructed from pairs of kinked 3-pina tethers linking [M(bdc)](n) chain motifs. Utilizing the longer-spanning 1,4-phenylenediacetate (phda) dicarboxylate ligand afforded {[Mn(phda)(3-pina)(H2O)]center dot 3H(2)O}(n) (3) and {[Co-2(phda)(1.5)(phdaH)(3-pina)(2)(H2O)(2)]}center dot 0.25H(2)O}(n) (4). The manganese derivative 3 displays a non-interpenetrated 3-connected (6,3) chair-ring layer topology based on a staple-like phda conformation. While the cobalt analog 4 possesses similar layers, these alternate with threefold interpenetrated (6,3) herringbone layers and connect into a simple yet unprecedented 4,4-connected binodal {(66)(658)} topology self-penetrated supramolecular net by means of pendant protonated phdaH ligands. Thermal decomposition properties were also investigated. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
