Abstract
Hydrothermal reactions of Mn(CH3COO)2·4H2O and 2,2-dimethylglutaric acid (H2dmg) in the presence of pyridyl group ligands (4,4′-bipyridine (bipy) or 1,2-di(4-pyridyl)ethylene (dpeten)) are produced under the same conditional. Two new three dimensional coordination polymers, namely, [Mn2(μ4-dmg)(μ4-dmg)(μ-bipy)]n (1), and [Mn2(μ4-dmg)(μ4-dmg)(μ-dpeten)]n (2), were characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, single crystal and powder X-ray diffractions as well as thermal analysis techniques. The X-ray single crystal data exhibits that 1 displays 3D framework without interpenetrating, whereas 2 shows a 2-fold 3D → 3D interpenetrating structure. The dmg anions coordinate to Mn(II) ions as a chelate and bis-bridging ligand to form 1D chain. The adjacent 1D chains are connected by bipy or dpeten ligands to generate 3D frameworks. Additionally, the dmg ligand exhibits two unprecedented coordination modes.
