Abstract

Two unique heterometallic cluster organic frameworks, [Cd4 MnIII 4 MnII 6 (Tri)4 (CH3 COO)14 (μ4 -O)2 (μ3 -O)2 (H2 O)2 ] Cd(H2 O)2 ⋅9 H2 O (1) and Cu[Cd5 Cu6 (Tri)4 (CH3 COO)9 (H2 O)4 ]2 (CH3 COO)3 ⋅24 H2 O (2) (H3 Tri=2-(hydroxymethyl)-2-(pyridine-4-yl)-1,3-propanediol), have been successfully prepared by employing a bifunctional tripodal alcohol ligand as a structure-directing agent. Crystal structure analyses reveal that 1 represents a rare example of frameworks constructed from Cd-Mn heterometallic chains, and 2 is the first heterometallic MOF based on highest-nuclear Cd-Cu heterometallic cluster building blocks. Furthermore, the magnetic properties and gas adsorption abilities of 1 and 2 were systematically studied.
