Abstract
Seven novel coordination polymers based on 2,2′-phosphinico-dibenzoic acid (H3L), namely, {[Zn3L2(H2O)4]·2H2O}n (1), [Zn3L2(4,4′-bipy)2]n (2), [Zn(HL)(2,2′-bipy)(H2O)]n (3), {[Cd9L6(H2O)8]·4H2O}n (4), [Cd8L4(OH)2(OAc)2(4,4′-bipy)]n (5), [Mn3L2(4,4′-bipy)(EtOH)(H2O)2]n (6), and [Mn(HL)(2,2′-bipy)(H2O)]n (7), were synthesized under hydro(solvo)thermal conditions. These compounds crystallize in the triclinic P1 space group for 1, 4, 5, and 6, the monoclinic space group C2/c for 2, and the monoclinic P21/c space group for 3 and 7. The L3– ligand displays versatile binding modes in 1–7. Compound 1 is a one-dimensional (1-D) chain coordination polymer with a three-dimensional (3-D) supramolecular framework. Compound 2 is a 3-D porous metal–organic framework (MOF) with two different 4,4′-bipyridine linkers. Compounds 3 and 7 show 1-D zigzag chain structures. Compound 4 exhibits a sophisticated 3-D MOF constructed from two types of Cd8 clusters and one Cd2 dimer, which is the first example exhibiting the coexist...
