Syntheses and Characterizations of Two Copper Coordination Polymers Constructed by 4,4'-Bipyridine

Two new copper coordination polymers [Cu(μ2-4,4?-bipyridine)(NO2)2]n (C10H8- N4O4Cu, Mr = 311.75) 1 and [Cu(μ2-4,4?-bipyridine)2(H2O)2]n?2n(4,4?-bipyridine)?2nClO4?nH2O (C40H38N8O11Cl2Cu, Mr = 941.22) 2 were synthesized by hydrothermal reaction and determined by X-ray diffraction method. Compound 1 crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P2/m with a = 4.7740(10), b = 11.039(2), c = 5.6752(14) ?, β = 91.394(9)o, V = 299.00(11) ?3, Z = 1, Dc = 1.731 g/cm3, F(000) = 157 and μ(MoKa) = 0.7107 mm-1. Compound 2 crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P2/n with a = 12.916(2), b = 11.149(1), c = 15.006(2) ?, β =106.642(6)o, V = 2070.3(5) ?3, Z = 2, Dc = 1.510 g/cm3, F(000) = 970 and μ(MoKa) = 0.7107 mm-1. In the structure of compound 1, the metal atom is in a slightly distorted octahedral CuO4N2 geometry surrounded by four O atoms of two NO2 ligands in the equatorial positions and two N atoms from 4,4?-bipyridine ligands in the axial sites, and the 4,4?-bipyridine ligands bridge the neighboring Cu2+ atoms to form polymeric chains in the lattice. Compound 2 has a 2D square-grid network structure. The square grids are superposed on each other to form a channel framework. The square cavity has dimensions of 11.148(2)? ×11.229(3)?. Every two guest 4,4?-bipyridine molecules are clathra- ted in each hydrophobic host cavity and further stabilized by π-π stacking and hydrogen bonding interactions.

Three interpenetrated copper(Ⅱ) coordination polymers based on a V-shaped ligand:Synthesis,structures,sorption and magnetic properties

Three new CuⅡ coordination polymers,[Cu2(oba)2(H2O)(DMF)].3H2O(1),[Cu4(oba)4(DMF)4].4H2O.DMF(2) and [Cu2(oba)(hmp)2](3)(H2oba = 4,4'-oxybis(benzoic acid),Hhmp = 2-pyridine methanol,DMF = N,N'-dimethylformamide) were synthesized by solvothermal reactions and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.Both complexes 1 and 2 take three-dimensional(3D) three-fold interpenetrating PtS topology with 1D channels.In complex 3,Cu4 clusters were formed by the chelating hmp ligands,and then the clusters were further linked by oba ligands to form a 3D three-fold interpenetrating dia topology network.For 2,N2 sorption shows type I isotherm with BET surface areas of 562 m2 g-1 and Langmuir surface area of 747 m2 g-1,respectively.At 77 and 87 K,the hydrogen uptakes of complex 2 are 0.89 wt% and 0.57 wt%,respectively.Magnetic investigation showed the ferromagnetic coupling between CuII ions and very weak antiferromagnetic interaction between Cu4 clusters in complex 3.
