Abstract
To investigate the influence of the positional isomeric effect on the structures of their complexes, two zinc(II) coordination polymers, [Zn3(1,3-phda)2(tib)2]·5H2O (1) and [Zn(1,2-phda)(tib)]·4H2O (2) (phda2– = phenylenediacetate and tib = 1,3,5-tris(imidazole-1-yl)benzene), have been synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural analyses reveal that complex 1 exhibits a 2-fold interpenetrating two-dimensional (2D) (3,4)-connected framework with an unusual (3.6.7)2(3.62.72.9)2(32.63.7) topology, whereas complex 2 possesses a one-dimensional (1D) tubular structure constructed from 20-membered {Zn2(tib)2} rings and {Zn(1,2-phda)} chains. This work indicates that isomeric effect of the couple of isomers plays an important role in the construction of the Zn(II) complexes. In addition, their thermal stability and luminescence are also reported in detail.
