Abstract

A trimellitic imide ligand (GlyTMI2-), derived from glycine, has been used in the formation of three coordination polymers as a means towards understanding the role of the aromatic core of the ligand in determining structure. The polymeric structures poly-{(N(CH3)2H2)[Zn2(GlyTMI)2(OAc)(DMF)0.5(CH3OH)0.5]·CH3OH} (1), poly-[Cd2(GlyTMI)2(DMF)3] (2), and poly-{[Cd2(GlyTMI)2(4,4’-bipy)2]·2H2O·DMF} (3) have different dimensionalities, attributed to the change in size of the metal ion (Zn vs. Cd).
