Coordination polymers and monomers based on new aminocarboxylate ligands: A cadmium(II) polymer containing dimeric aqua-bridged cadmium complex governed by polymeric chain

摘要

The synthesis and characterization of novel coordination polymers [Co(HCCB)(H_2O)_2]_n (1), [Zn(HCCB)(H _2O)_2]_n (2), {[Cd(HCCB)_2]·0. 5[Cd(μ-H_2O)(H_2O)_4]_2}_n (3) and [Cu(HCCB)(H_2O)_2]_n (4) based on 3-(carboxymethylamino)-4-chlorobenzoic acid (H_3CCB) and mononuclear complexes [Cu(HBCCB)(H_2O)]·H_2O (5), [Co(HBCCB)(H_2O)]·H_2O (6), [Zn(HBCCB)(H _2O)] (7) and [Cd(HBCCB)(H_2O)] (8) containing 3-bis(carboxymethylamino)-4-chlorobenzoic acid (H_3BCCB) have been described. The compounds under investigation have been characterized by elemental analyses, spectral studies and structures of 1-3 and 5 determined crystallographically. Structural data of 1 and 2 revealed that the deprotonated HCCB~2- bridges metal centers leading to a double stranded 1D chain. On the other hand, the HCCB2- coordinated thorough carboxylate oxygen and amino nitrogen in 3 to afford a 1D chain whose charge neutrality is maintained by inclusion of aqua-bridged dimer [{Cd(μ-H_2O)(H _2O)_4}_2]~(4+). Strong Cu?Cl interaction (2.754) in 5 imposes a coordination geometry that is half-way between the square planar and square pyramidal. The H_3CCB, H _3BCCB and 1-3 and 5 are fluorescent at rt. Thermal studies (TG and DSC) on 1-3 suggested higher stability of 2 relative to 1 and 3 [ΔH _f (kcal/mol), ΔS_f = 152.17, 0.60, 1; 195.56: 0.86, 2; 69.33:0.36, 3].
