Abstract

A metal-organic coordination polymer, { [p-MeBzlPh3P][ZnCl2(NA)]} n (1) (NA = nicotinic acid), has been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by IR, UV-Vis, TG analysis, elemental analysis, fluorescence analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c, a = 10.1049(3) Å, b = 25.3888(6) Å, c = 14.7244(3) Å, β = 129.2740(10)°, V = 2924.31(13) Å3, Z = 4, R 1 = 0.0639, wR 2 = 0.1695 and S = 1.133. The structure of 1 has a one-dimensional structure with [p-MeBzlPh3P]+ counter-cations alternately residing on both sides of the one-dimensional anionic chains of the zigzag-chain polymer. Compound 1 exhibits strong fluorescence in solid state at room temperature.
