Abstract
Four new coordination polymers, [Co(ppmdc)(H2O)2]n (1), [Ni(ppmdc)(H2O)2]n (2), [Mn(ppmdc)(H2O)]n (3) and {[Zn(ppmdc)(H2O)2]·H2O}n (4) (H2ppmdc = 2-(pyridin-4-yl)-4,6-pyrimidine dicarboxylic acid), have been synthesized by self-assembly of the newly designed H2ppmdc ligand and corresponding metal salts under hydrothermal conditions. The four complexes exhibit versatile frameworks with different topologies due to the different metal ions and especially the diverse coordination modes of the H2ppmdc ligand. Complexes 1 and 2 exhibit 2-D layered structures with (4·82)2 and (82)2 topology, respectively, which are constructed from the self-assembly of the L- and R-type single chain helixes, in which the ppmdc2− ligand adopts a μ3-kN,O:kN′:kO′ mode to link metal ions. Complex 3 features a 3-D metal–organic framework with 5-connected (45·65)2 topology, in which the metal ions are bridged by μ5-ppmdc2− ligands. Complex 4 possesses a 2-D sheet structure with 3-connected (63)2 topology, in which the ppmdc2− ligand adopts a μ3-kN:kO:kO′ mode to link Zn(II) ions. The thermal properties of complexes 1–4, and the magnetic property of 3 have been investigated and discussed in detail.
