Abstract
Two novel 3D lanthanide metal-organic frameworks [Ln(pydc)(pip)1/2(H2O] (Ln=Ce (1) and Pr (2), H2pydc=2,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid, H2pip=2,5-piperazinedicarboxylic acid have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), powder X-ray diffractions (PXRD), and single-crystal X-ray diffractions. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) was used for morphological analysis. Complexes are isostructural and feature interesting 3D frameworks. Both compounds crystallize in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c. Structural analyses of 1 and 2 show that Ln3+ ions connect with each other through H2pydc and H2pip. To the best of our knowledge, they are the first heteroleptic lanthanide polymers obtained through in situ 2,5-piperazinedicarboxylic acid syntheses. Moreover, thermal and luminescent properties of the compounds have been investigated.
