Hydrothermal Synthesis, Crystal Structures of Three New Metal(II) Complexes with 1‐Adamantaneacetic Acid

Abstract

AbstractThree new complexes constructed by 1‐adamantaneacetic acid (HL), [Zn2L4]n (1), [MnL2(4,4′‐bipy)(H2O)2]n· 2n(HL) (2) and MnL2(2,2'‐bipy)(H2O)2 (3), have been hydrothermally synthesized. X‐ray single crystal diffraction analyses reveal that both 1 and 2 are infinite 1D chains along b axis. 2 and 3 have an octahedral coordination and show the supramolecular structures which are formed on the basis of the connectivity of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The deprotonated L− ligands coordinate the M(II) atoms with many coordination modes in the title complexes.
