Abstract
A flexible bisacylhydrazone ligand (H4L) was designed and synthesized from the condensation reaction of dialdehyde 3,3′-thiobis(methyiene)-bis-(5-methyl-salicylaldehyde) (b) with isonicotinic hydrazide. In the DMSO/methanol solution, two coordination polymers (CPs), formulated as {[Ag(H4L)NO3]·DMSO·2H2O}n (CP 1) and {[Zn2(H2L2-)2]·3DMSO·3H2O}n (CP 2), were synthesized from H4L with Ag(I) or Zn(II) ions, respectively. These two CPs were characterized via elemental analysis, FT-IR spectra, and single crystal X-ray determination. The results show that CP 1 exists as a 1D looped-chain polymer, while CP 2 exists as a 2D sheet polymer. The coordination configurations of the two CPs were analyzed and compared in detail, which disclose the terminal pyridyl nitrogen atoms exhibit obviously stronger coordination ability compared to other sites. In addition, photophysical, electrochemical and antibacterial properties of H4L and the two CPs were investigated.
