Abstract
Four new partially fluorinated metal organic frameworks (HF-MOFs) have been synthesized under different solvothermal conditions (H(2)O or dimethylformamide (DMF)) from transition metal cations [Co(2+) and Mn(2+)], 3-methyl pyridine (3-mepy) and 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) bis(benzoic acid) (C(17)H(10)F(6)O(4), H(2)hfbba), to determine the influence of reaction conditions on the formation of MOFs. This family of materials displays a striking degree of structural similarity depending on the solvent of synthesis. HF-MOFs synthesized from H(2)O [Co-HFMOF-W, Co(hfbba)(3-mepy)(H(2)O) and Mn-HFMOF-W, Mn(hfbba)(3-mepy)(H(2)O)] contain three-dimensional connectivity whereas HF-MOFs synthesized from DMF Co-HFMOF-D, [Co(2)(hfbba)(2)(3-mepy)(2)]·(DMF)(3) and Mn-HFMOF-D, [Mn(2)(hfbba)(2)(3-mepy)]·(H(2)O) are two-dimensional in nature. Co-HFMOF-W and Mn-HFMOF-W are iso-structural polymeric materials. Thermal gravimetric analysis performed on as-synthesized HF-MOFs revealed that these compounds have high thermal stability (∼350 °C). The continuous decrease of the χT product with decreasing T for Co-HFMOF-D and Co-HFMOF-W respectively indicates the presence of antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between two Co(2+) (S = 3/2) metal centers within a cluster.
