Abstract
This work describes the synthesis of a new 2-D coordination polymer (CP), [Co3(btc)2(dmp)8]n (btc = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate and dmp = 3,5-dimethylpyrazole) and its catalytic activity towards the oxidation reaction of 1-hexene to form oxygenated compounds under solvent free condition. Structural analysis reveals that Co(II) cations in this polymeric compound are linked by btc3- anions with alternate tetrahedral/octahedral coordination forming a two-fold interpenetrated 3-connected hcb underlying net. Electronic spectrum of the cobaltous polymer has been calculated using TDDFT/B3LYP method for making the appropriate assignments of electronic transitions. Catalytic results show good conversions of the starting material to oxygenated products with high selectivities for 1,2-epoxyhexane and 1-hexanal.
