Abstract
Hydrothermal reaction of cadmium nitrate, 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid (H2tdc) and one of the conformationally flexible dipyridylamide ligands N,N′-(heptane-1,7-diyl)dinicotinamide (hedn), N,N′-(hexane-1,6-diyl)diisonicotinamide (hdin), N,N′-(hexane-1,6-diyl)dinicotinamide (hdn), N,N′-(propane-1,3-diyl)dinicotinamide (pdn), N,N′-(propane-1,3-diyl)diisonicotinamide (pdin) produced five new coordination polymers which were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. {[Cd(tdc)(hedn)(H2O)]·3H2O}n (1) manifests looped (4,4) grid motifs with two-fold parallel interpenetration. {[Cd(tdc)(hdin)(H2O)]·H2O}n (2) shows stacked (4,4) grid motifs. {[Cd2(tdc)2(hdn)(H2O)4]·H2O}n (3) exhibits herringbone (6,3) grid motifs. In contrast to the 2D topologies seen in 1–3, {[Cd2(tdc)2(pdn)(H2O)2]·4H2O}n (4) displays a 3D self-penetrated net with 6482nbo topology and [Cd(tdc)(pdin)]n (5) shows a 1D ribbon structure constructed from staple-conformation pdin ligands and {Cd2O2} dimer-containing [Cd(tdc)]n chains. Thermal decomposition and nitrobenzene detection properties of these five new materials are discussed.
