MnII and CoII salts reacting with 4-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,2′:6′,4″-terpyridine (4-Hcptpy) in DMF/H2O afford two complexes, [Mn(4-cptpy)(DMF)(H2O)2] n ·n(4-cptpy)·nDMF (1) and [Co(4-cptpy)2(H2O)2] n (2). Complex 1 is a 1D ribbon coordination polymer assembled by Mn2 dimer and tridentate 4-cptpy ligand. The guest 4-cptpy anion is embedded in 3D supramolecular architecture with strong hydrogen bonds. Complex 2 is a 1D linear chain coordination polymer with quadrangled pores. The complex 1 releases H2O and DMF in 87–150°C, and the anhydrous [Mn(4-cptpy)] n ·n(4-cptpy) remains thermally stable until 403°C. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility study in 2–300K proves that a weak antiferromagnetic interaction exists in the (μ-O2CR)2Mn2 core. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Hydrothermal reaction of CuCN with 2,5-bis(3-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (3-bpo) affords a wave-like infinite chain coordination polymer [Cu2(CN)2(3-bpo)] n (1). Replacement of 3-bpo by its isomer 2,5-bis(4-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (4-bpo) could yields polymer [Cu(CN)(4-bpo)] n (2). In the complex 1, the bent 3-bpo ligand adopts bidentate chelating mode binds with the Cu(I)-cyanide chain to form 16-membered macrocyclic structure. The complex 2 exhibits a layered metal–organic framework, in which exo-bidentate 4-bpo ligand connects the Cu(I)-cyanide chains to form 2-D rectangle grid. Both of these Cu(I) complexes are thermal stable under 200°C and release 3-bpo or 4-bpo ligand in 200–360°C. Luminescent study reveals that 1 has green-light emission, while 2 has blue-light emission. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: Hydrothermal reaction of CuCN, K3[Fe(CN)6] and 1,10-phenanthroline affords a novel cyanide-bridged copper(I) coordination polymer [Cu3(CN)3(phen)] n (1). The complex displays an interesting one-dimensional neutral double helical framework with (phen)Cu–CN– side-arms as interchain bridges. The double helical chains are close packed in a parallel fashion, and the phen ligands stack in an interpenetrating mode, which leads to π–π interactions between parallel phen planes. The thermal stability and fluorescent property have also been investigated. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
