Two zinc-triazole-biphenyldicarboxylate coordination polymers affording a 3D 4-connected 2-fold interpenetrating diamond net and a 2D 6-connected hxl net

摘要

Two new zinc-triazole-biphenyldicarboxylate frameworks based on secondary building units (SBUs), namely, Zn4(μ4-O)(trz)2(4,4'-bpdc)2 (1) and Zn2(trz)2(2,4'-bpdc) (2), [Htrz = 1,2,4-triazole, H2bpdc = biphenyldicarboxylate] have been synthesized by hydrothermal reactions and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, X-ray power diffraction, elemental analyses, infrared absorption spectra, and thermogravimetric analyses. Compound 1 is a 2-fold interpenetrating diamond topology constructed from [Zn4(μ4-O)(trz)2]~(4+) SBUs with tetrahedral [Zn4(μ4-O)] core and two trz ligands. Compound 2 is a 2D 6-connected hxl network based on [Zn2(trz)2]~(2+) SBUs. Additionally, these two compounds show emission properties at room temperature in the solid state.
