Abstract

A heteronuclear metal organic framework containing erbium(III) and cobalt(II) ion based on a rigid ligand of substituted imidazoledicarboxylic acid has been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (CIF file CCDC no. 1019455). It’s formula is [Er2Co2(μ3-HMimda)2(μ3-Mimda)2 · 4H2O] n · 2nH2O, (H3Mimda = 1-H-2-methyl-4,5-imidazole-dicarboxylic acid). The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic system. It possesses an extended grid-like porous structure constructed from corrugated shaped 2D layer. Direct current magnetic susceptibility measurements for indicated the depopulation of the Stark components at low temperature and possible very weak antiferromagnetic interactions within heteronuclear MOF.
