Abstract
AbstractThe reactions of cobalt acetates with tetrachloroterephthalic acid (H2BDC‐Cl4) in different solvents gave two polymeric and one mononuclear CoII complexes. X‐ray single‐crystal structural determination revealed that the ligand BDC‐Cl4 displays a reliable bridging tecton to construct diverse supramolecular architectures through coordinative bonds or secondary hydrogen‐bonding interactions. The complexes [Co(BDC‐Cl4)(DMF)2(EtOH)2]n (1) and {[Co(BDC‐Cl4)(DMF)2(MeOH)2]·2DMF}n (2) demonstrate a one‐dimensional (1D) coordination motif with infinite CoII‐tetrachloroterephthalate chains, which are tuned by different binding solvent systems of DMF/ethanol (EtOH) and DMF/methanol (MeOH). [Co(DMF)2(H2O)4]·(BDC‐Cl4) (3) represents a two‐dimensional (2D) metallosupramolecular network by hydrogen‐bonded bridging between the aqua ligand of the mononuclear complex with the uncoordinated BDC‐Cl4 solvates. The spectroscopic, thermal, and fluorescent properties of 1–3 were also investigated.
