Hydrothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure of One Novel 1-D Copper(Ⅱ)-organic Framework:{[Cu_2(PP)_2(CBPC)]_2·7H_2O}_n

One novel 1-D copper（Ⅱ）-organic compound,namely {[Cu2（PP）2（CBPC）]2·7H2O}n（1,H2CBPC=1-[（2＇-carboxybiphenyl-4-yl）methyl]-2-propylimidazole-4-carboxylic acid,HPP=3-（2-pyridyl）pyrazole）,was synthesized under hydrothermal conditions.X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that the two Cu（Ⅱ） ions in the distorted dimer [Cu2（PP）2] of 1 are linked by the carboxylate oxygen atoms on the phenyl and imidazole rings,respectively,forming one interesting snake-like chain.Single-crystal X-ray analyses reveal that it crystallizes in monoclinic,space group C2/c with a=30.656（8）,b=12.715（3）,c=22.405（5）,β=122.758（3）°,V=7344（3）3,Z=4,Mr=1681.65,Dc=1.521 g/cm3,F（000）=3464,μ=1.221 mm-1,the final R=0.0453 and wR=0.1023 for 4617 observed reflections with Ⅰ 〉2σ（Ⅰ）.

Crystal Structure,Thermal Behavior and Luminescence of a New Dimeric Manganese(Ⅱ) Complex Constructed with 3-Carboxy-1-carboxymethyl-2-oxidopyridinium

A new dimeric Mn（Ⅱ） complex,namely,[Mn（L）（PIP）]_2·H_2O（1）,was synthesized under hydrothermal condition（H_2L = 3-carboxy-1-carboxymethyl-2-oxidopyridinium and PIP = 2-（pyridin-3-yl）-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline）.It crystallizes in triclinic,space group P1 with a = 9.2037（13）,b = 9.6794（13）,c = 14.649（3） A,α = 94.858（3）,β = 94.928（3）,γ = 114.468（2）o,V = 1172.9（3） A^3,Z = 1,C_（52）H_（34）Mn_2N_（12）O_（11）,Mr = 1112.79,Dc = 1.575 g/cm^3,F（000） = 568,μ（Mo Ka） = 0.618 mm^-1,R = 0.0432 and w R = 0.1151.In 1,two L anions bridge two Mn（Ⅱ） atoms to give a dimeric [Mn（L）（PIP）] unit with the Mn···Mn distance of 3.009（2） A.The two PIP ligands are located on both sides of the dimer,which provides suitable π-π stacking interactions between PIP ligands.By these π-π stacking interactions,adjacent dimers are extended into a two-dimensional supramolecular layer.Further,the strong N–H···O hydrogen bond stabilizes the supramolecular layer structure of 1.Moreover,the thermal behavior and luminescent property of 1 have been studied.
