Benzenedicarboxylate-modulated zinc(II)-3,5-bis(3-pyridyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole frameworks: syntheses, structures and luminescent properties

摘要

Abstract Based on the polydentate ligand 3,5-bis(3-pyridyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole (3,3′-Hbpt), three coordination compounds [Zn(3,3′-Hbpt)(ip)]·2H₂O (1), [Zn(3,3′-Hbpt)(5-NO₂-ip)]·H₂O (2), and [Zn(3,3′-Hbpt)₂(H₂pm)(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O (3) have been hydrothermally constructed with H₂ip, 5-NO₂-H₂ip and H₄pm as auxiliary ligands (H₂ip = isophthalic acid, 5-NO₂-H₂ip = 5-NO₂-isophthalic acid, H₄pm = pyromellitic acid). Structural analysis reveals that Zn(II) ions serve as four-coordinated, five-coordinated, and six-coordinated connectors in 1–3, respectively, while 3,3′-Hbpt adopts μ-N_py and N_py coordination modes in two typical conformations in these target coordination compounds. Dependently the applied ligand, compounds 1–3 exhibit either 1D channel, cage or chain structures, respectively. In addition, the luminescence properties of 1–3 have been investigated in the solid state at room temperature.
