Two new CdII MOFs, namely, two-dimensional (2D) poly[[[μ2-1,4-bis(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)butane](μ2-heptanedioato)cadmium(II)] tetrahydrate], {[Cd(C7H10O4)(C18H18N4)]·4H2O} n or {[Cd(Pim)(bbimb)]·4H2O} n (1), and 2D poly[diaqua[μ2-1,4-bis(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)butane](μ4-decanedioato)(μ2-decanedioato)dicadmium(II)], [Cd2(C10H16O4)2(C18H18N4)(H2O)2] n or [Cd(Seb)(bbimb)0.5(H2O)] n (2), have been synthesized hydrothermally based on the 1,4-bis(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)butane (bbimb) and pimelate (Pim2−, heptanedioate) or sebacate (Seb2−, decanedioate) ligands. Both MOFs were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In 1, the CdII centres are connected by bbimb and Pim2− ligands to generate a 2D sql layer structure with an octameric (H2O)8 water cluster. The 2D layers are further connected by O—H...O hydrogen bonds, resulting in a three-dimensional (3D) supramolecular structure. In 2, the CdII centres are coordinated by Seb2− ligands to form binuclear Cd2 units which are linked by bbimb and Seb2− ligands into a 2D hxl layer. The 2D layers are further connected by O—H...O hydrogen bonds, leading to an 8-connected 3D hex supramolecular network. IR and UV–Vis spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and solid-state photoluminescence analysis were carried out on both MOFs. Luminescence sensing experiments reveal that both MOFs have good selective sensing towards Fe3+ in aqueous solution.

Three flexible α,ѡ-bis(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazolyl)alkane ligands with different spacers were reacted with CdX2 (X = Cl, Br, I) hydrothermally, resulting in three coordination architectures, namely [CdI2(L1)]n (1), [CdBr2(L2)]n (2), and Cd2Cl4(L3)2 (3) [L1 = 1,3-bis(5,6- dimethylbenzimidazole)propane, L2 = 1,5-bis(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole)pentane, L3 = 1,6- bis(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole)hexane]. They have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra, thermogravimetric (TG) analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1displays a helical chain linked by the ligands L1, and a 2D supramolecular network is constructed through π-π stacking interactions; complex 2shows a helical chain structure with connections through two kinds of strong π-π stacking interactions into an intricate 3D supramolecular network; complex 3 contains dinuclear metallomacrocycles. The fluorescence properties of 1-3have been investigated in the solid state

The Mean

The title compound, C17H12O4, was synthesized from the dye alizarin. The dihedral angle between the mean plane of the anthraquinone ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.039 Å) and the dioxepine ring is 16.29 (8)°. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming sheets lying parallel to the ab plane. The sheets are connected through π–π and C=O...π interactions to generate a three-dimensional supramolecular network. Hirshfeld surface analysis was used to investigate intermolecular interactions in the solid-state: the most important contributions are from H...H (43.0%), H...O/O...H (27%), H...C/C...H (13.8%) and C...C (12.4%) contacts.
