Copper-organic Framework Constructed from Rod-shaped Secondary Building Units with Selective Sorption Property

One novel metal-organic framework [Cu2（L）（μ3-OH）]n（1, H3L = [1,1＇：3＇,1＇＇-terphenyl]-4,4＇＇,5＇-tricarboxylic acid） has been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal powder X-ray diffraction, IR and thermogravimetric analyses. Complex 1 crystallizes in orthorhombic crystal system, space group Pbca with a = 21.573（19）, b = 5.404（5）, c = 33.78（3） ？, C21H（12）O7Cu2, Mr = 503.39, V = 3938（6） A^3, Z = 8, Dc = 1.698 g·cm^-3, μ = 2.202 mm^-1, F（000） = 2016, 1.531〈θ〈25.009°, λ（Mo Kα） = 0.71073 A, T = 293（2） K, the final R = 0.0448 and wR = 0.1002. The structure of complex 1 is a three-dimensional（3D） framework based on infinite rod-shaped secondary building units and can be simplified as kgd topology. The gas adsorption measurements for N2, CO2, H2O, CH3OH and CH3CH2OH have been done. Fortunately, the selective sorption of CO2 over N2 was found at 195 K.

Solvothermal Synthesis of a 3D Luminescent Cadmium-organic Framework with msw Topological Net

A new cadmium-organic framework, [Cd2（TBDC）2（DMF）2（H2O）]n （1）, was synthesized by solvothermal reaction of rigid carboxylate ligand 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-l,4-ben- zenedicarboxylate （H2TBDC） and cadmium nitrate and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectrum, thermal analysis, PXRD, single-crystal X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence in the solid state. Compound 1 crystallizes in orthorhombic, space group Pca21 with a = 21.487（6）, b = 7.790（2）, c = 20.666（6） A, C30H40Cd2N2O11, Mr = 829.44, V= 3459.3（16） A3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.593 g.cm-3,μ = 1.29 mm-1, F（000） = 1672, 2.7〈θ〈27.2°, λ（MoKa） = 0.71073 A, T= 293（2） K, the final R = 0.026, wR = 0.0548 and S = 1.027. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that complex 1 possesses a 3D framework and exhibits rnsw net. Thus, the solid-state luminescent spectrum of 1 displays that the emission of cadmium（lI） complex shows a peak at 317 nm upon 250 nm excitation at room temperature.
