Syntheses and Characterization of New Nano-porous Soft Copper(II) Metal-organic Framework and Nano-porous Two-dimensional Manganese(II) and Zinc(II) Coordination Polymers with 4,4'-Bipyridine and 2-Sulfobenzoic Acid

摘要

Three new Cu(II), Mn(II), and Zn(II) coordination polymers with 4,4'-bipyridine (4,4'-bipy) and 2-sulfobenzoic acid (2-H2sb) ligands, [M(4,4'-bipy) (2-sb)(H2O)]n, have been synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy and elemental analyses. The structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The structural studies show that the metal atoms have six-coordinate geometry with a distorted octahedral environment constructed with 4,4'-bipy and 2-sb2~ linkers stacked over each other to generate a two-dimension motif. Self-assembly of these compounds in the solid state is likely caused by coordination and hydrogen-bonds. While polymers containing Zn(II) and Mn(II) have analogous structures, the Cu(II)-containing nano-porous soft metal-organic framework presents a different structure.
