Abstract

Two new mixed-ligand coordination polymers, [Cd(bpp)(cpg) 2 (H 2O) 2] ( 1), [Zn(bpp)(cpg)]·H 2O ( 2), have been synthesized. The central cadmium and zinc ions are hexa-coordinate and tetra-coordinate, respectively. X-ray analyses show that different coordination propensity of cadmium and zinc ions leads to different structures, 1D bilayer ladder ( 1) and 2D rectangle grid network ( 2), in which cpg and bpp ligand exist as their stable conformation, respectively (TT-form and TG-form).
