Abstract
To explore the influencing effect of different transition metal ions on the coordination geometries and structural architectures of metal–organic complexes with the same ligand, 10 new coordination compounds of a monobranched tripodal ligand N-[N′-(carboxymethyl)benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl]-N,N-bis(benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)amine (HAcNTB), namely, [Co6(AcNTB)6]·6ClO4·36H2O (Co-ClO4), [Co6(AcNTB)6]·6BF4·9H2O·3CHCl3 (Co-BF4), [Zn6(AcNTB)6]·6ClO4·2CHCl3·15H2O (Zn-ClO4), [Zn6(AcNTB)6]·6BF4·52H2O (Zn-BF4), [Ni2(AcNTB)2(H2O)2]·2ClO4·2CH3OH·2H2O (Ni-ClO4), [Ni2(AcNTB)2(H2O)2]·2BF4·4CH3OH (Ni-BF4), {[Mn(AcNTB)(CH3OH)]·ClO4·H2O}n (Mn-ClO4), {[Mn(AcNTB)(CH3OH)]·BF4·H2O}n (Mn-BF4), {[Cd(AcNTB)(CH3OH)]·ClO4·H2O}n] (Cd-ClO4), {[Cd(AcNTB)(CH3OH)]·BF4·H2O}n (Cd-BF4) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In isomorphous complexes Co-ClO4, Co-BF4, Zn-ClO4, and Zn-BF4, the metal centers (Zn2+ and Co2+) are five-coordinated in...
