Abstract
The objective of this paper is to describe an unusual coordination polymer, M4(μ4-O)(bipy)(m-BDC)3 (sM4=Zn2.36 Co1.64, bipy=4,4′-bipyridine, m-H2BDC=1,3-benzenedicarboxylic acid) (1), which has been hydrothermally synthesised and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, XRPD, IR, TGA, ICP, atomic absorption, and element analysis. 1 crystallizes in the P42/mnm space group and contains a M4O(O2C)6 secondary building unit (SBU) with an inclined interpenetrated (4,4) topology, and is a rare combination of the two most successful approaches to coordination polymer design: generation of metal carboxylate SBUs and the use of pyridyl donor bridges. Moreover, complex 1 exhibits intense fluorescence at about 424nm (λex=312nm) in the solid state.
