A Novel Inorganic-organic Hybrid Borate with Unique One-dimensional Infinite Aluminium-oxygen Chains

摘要

A novel inorganic-organic hybrid borate,[Al2(fum)(H3BO3)(OH) 4]n·n(H3BO3) (1,H2fum = fumaric acid) ,has been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction,FTIR and elemental analysis. Crystal data for compound 1: orthorhombic,space group Pnma,a = 14.108(3) ,b = 6.9412(14) ,c = 14.995(3) ,V = 1468.3(5) 3,Z = 4,Mr = 359.72,Dc = 1.627 g/cm3,μ = 0.254 mm-1,F(000) = 736,the final R = 0.0492 and wR = 0.1650 with I > 2σ(I) . In compound 1,each AlⅢ ion is coordinated by six oxygen atoms to adopt a distorted octahedral geometry. Both fumarate anion and the coordinated boric acid act as bidentate bridging ligands to link two neighboring AlⅢ centers simultaneously. Each AlⅢ ion is bridged by two μ2-hydroxyl ligands to construct an infinite wave-like [Al2(fum)(H3BO3)(OH) 4]n chain. These one-dimensional chains form hydrogen bonds with free boric acid molecules giving rise to a three-dimensional supramolecular network.
