Abstract
Four polymeric complexes [M(SCN) 2(4-abaH) 2] n [M=Co(II) ( 1) or Cd(II) ( 2), 4-abaH=4-aminobenzoic acid], [Zn(N 3)(4-aba)] n ( 3) and [Cd(N 3)(4-aba)(H 2O)] n ( 4) were prepared from the reactions of 4-abaH with M(SCN) 2 [M=Co(II) or Cd(II)] and M(N 3) 2 [M=Zn(II) or Cd(II)] at different pH values. Their crystal structures have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Both 1 and 2 consist of one-dimensional chains [M(μ-1,3-SCN) 2(4-abaH) 2] n , in which each pair of the lateral carboxylic groups form double hydrogen bonds to furnish infinite two-dimensional sheets. In 3, the Zn(II) atoms are bridged by μ-1,1-azide groups and μ 2-carboxylate- O, O′ groups into an infinite zigzag chain featuring six-membered (ZnNZnOCO) n rings, which are further connected by the 4-aba- N, O, O′ groups to generate a two-dimensional network. In 4, however, adjacent Cd(II) atoms are bridged by μ-1,1,3-azide groups to form an infinite chain with both four-membered Cd 2(μ-1,1-N 3) 2 and eight-membered Cd 2(μ-1,3-N 3) 2 rings. These chains are further connected by the 4-aba- N, O groups to generate a three-dimensional brickwall-like network. The results show significant effect of pH on the formation of the network structures.
