Synthesis and crystal structure of a 2-D yttrium coordination network with propylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid

Abstract

A 2-D binuclear coordination polymer, {[YIII(Hpdta)(H2O)]2 · 6H2O} n (H4pdta = propylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid), has been synthesized through direct hydrothermal reaction and characterized by infrared spectrum and thermal analysis. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that Y(III) is eight-coordinate of almost standard square antiprismatic polyhedron.
