Abstract

A novel coordination polymer with chemical formula {[Tb(bdc)1.5(H2O)]⋅(DMF)(H2O)}∞ (1) has been synthesized by reaction between 1,4-benzene-dicarboxylic acid (H2bdc) and di-cationic hexanuclear entity [Tb6O(OH)8(NO3)6(H2O)12]2+ in an ethylene glycol (EG)/N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) mixture. This compound has been obtained as single crystals by slow evaporation in air at room temperature. If the hexanuclear entity is destroyed during the reaction, the coordination polymer that is obtained is original and presents promising potential micro-porosity and luminescent properties. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group C12/c1 (No. 15) with the cell parameters a=23.7540(1)Å, b=10.5390(4)Å, c=19.7580(3)Å, β=125.8100(1)° and Z=8.
