Abstract
Three novel coordination polymers, namely, {[Pr(TTTPC)·(H2O)2]·2Cl·NO3·4H2O}n (I), {[Gd(TTTPC)·(H2O)2]·2Cl·NO3·4H2O}n (II) and {[Yb(TTTPC)·(H2O)2]·3Cl·NO3·0.5DMA·6H2O}n (III) were synthesized in conventional aqueous solutions with H3TTTPC ligands (H3TTTPC = 1,1′,1″-(2,4,6-trimethylbenzene-1,3,5-triyl(methylene))-tris(pyridine-4-carboxylic acid), DMA = N,N-dimethylacetamide) and characterized by infrared spectrometry and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Experimental results show that these MOFs are isomorphous and isostructural, containing the unit of cavate 14-membered cages (Pr2(OCO)4), based on which to generate a one-dimensional (1D) infinite linear metallic chain through the linkage of two COO− groups that are further interlinked reciprocally to polymerize into three-dimensional (3D) porous frameworks. Coordination polymer III shows remarkable selectivity toward Pb2+ and it can be considered as potential selective luminescent probes for Pb2+ ion. Additionally, magnetic analysis indicates coordination polymer I presents antiferromagnetism. Besides, lanthanide contraction effect exists in as-synthesized coordination polymers.
