Abstract
A one-dimensional Cd(II) coordination polymer containing 2-pyridinecarboxylate (2-pyc−) and iodide anions [Cd(μ-2-pyc)(μ-I)] n (1), is synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis and X-ray crystallography. The single-crystal X-ray data show that the coordination number for the Cd2+ ion is five. The thermal stability of 1 was studied by thermogravimetry and differential thermal analyzes. Cd(II)O nanoparticles were prepared by direct calcination of 1 at different temperatures. The Cd(II)O nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the morphology of the Cd(II)O nanoparticles is dependent upon the thermolysis temperature.
