Abstract
Hydrothermal treatment of cadmium nitrate, 5-nitroisophthalic acid (H2nip) and one of two isomeric dipyridylamides resulted in coordination polymer crystalline solids that manifested different in situ reactivity and dimensionality, as ascertained by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Hydrolysis of 3-pyridylisonicotinamide (3-pina) afforded the 3-aminopyridine (3-ampyr) ligands observed in the 1-D ladder polymer {[Cd(nip)(3-ampyr)(H2O)]⋅2H2O}n (1). Conversely, hydrolysis of the isomeric precursor 3-pyridylnicotinamide (3-pna) generated the monoanionic nicotinate ligands in the 2-D coordination polymer [Cd2(nip)(nic)2(H2O)2]n (2). Compound 2 displays {Cd2(OCO)2} eight-membered ring dimeric units linked into (6,3) graphite-type slab motifs. Luminescent properties of these two new materials are also presented.
