By adopting a mixed-ligand strategy, three ZnII coordination polymers were prepared by hydrothermal reactions of zinc(ii) acetate with flexible 1,2-phenylenediacetic acid (H2phda) combining with three nitrogen-rich tectons namely, [Zn2(phda)2(bpo)2]n·2H2O (1), [Zn(phda)(pytz)]n (2), and [Zn(phda)(bib)]n·H2O (3) (where bpo = 2,5-bis(4-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole, pytz = 3,5-di(4-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole, and bib = 1,4-bis(imidazol-1-yl)benzene). The single-crystal X-ray diffraction patterns reveal that the three compounds contain metal(ii)-carboxylate chains further extended by such nitrogen-rich co-ligands to afford a vast diversity of structures from two-dimensional (2D) stepwise grids (1), 2D double layers (2), to three-dimensional (3D)→3D 4-fold interpenetrating diamondoid networks. Furthermore, the structural differences in these complexes are primarily affected by the introduction of N-donor ancillary co-ligands so that their solid-state photoluminescence properties exhibit various emission spectra. Especially, compound 3 shows a guest-sensitive luminescence behaviour, which may be useful in applications as guest sensors.

Three coordination polymers [Sr(p-H2MOPhIDC)2]n (1) (p-H3MOPhIDC = 2-p-methoxyphenyl-1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid), {[Cd2(p-HMOPhIDC)2(4,4′-bipy)]⋅H2O}n (4,4′-bipy = 4,4′-bipyridine) (2), and [Zn(p-HMOPhIDC)(4,4′-bipy)]n (3) have been solvothermally synthesized, and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Polymer 1 indicates a three-dimensional framework, which can be simplified as a 6-connected lattice. Polymer 2 is also a three-dimensional framework, and contains mixed bridging ligands HMOPhIDC2– and 4,4′-bipy. Polymer 3 exhibits a sheet structure bearing infinite rectangles. The coordination modes of the p-H3MOPhIDC ligand, and the thermal and solid-state photoluminescence properties of the polymers have been investigated as well.

Seven novel lanthanide coordination polymers, [Eu(STP)(glu)] n (1), [Ln4(STP)2(glu)5] n ·4nH2O [Ln = Er (2), Yb (3)], [Ln(STP)(1,3-bdc)] n ·0.5nH2O [Ln = Tb (4), Yb (5)], and [Ln(STP)(1,2-bdc)] n [Ln = Eu (6), Tb (7)] [NaSTP = sodium 2-(2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridin-4′-yl)benzenesulfonate, H2glu = glutaric acid, H2(1,3-bdc) = benzene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid, H2(1,2-bdc) = benzene-1,2-dicarboxylic acid], have been prepared under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound (1) possesses a 2D layered structure based on 1D chains with STP− and glu2− anions acting as bridges. Compounds (2) and (3) are isomorphous and show a rare 3D tcj/hc net with a tetranuclear Ln3+ unit regarded as a seven-connected node and a glu2− anion serving as a three-connected node. Compounds (4) and (5) are isomorphous and exhibit six-connected pcu nets by denoting binuclear units to six-connected nodes. Compounds (6) and (7) display 3D 3,5T1 nets with (1,2-bdc)2− anions and dimetallic units serving as three- and five-connected nodes, respectively. The Eu compounds (1) and (6) demonstrate typically red emission, while the Tb compounds (4) and (7) exhibit characteristic green emission. The emission spectra of heteronuclear compounds [Eu x Tb1−x (STP)(1,2-bdc)] n (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) as efficient luminescent tags were investigated. The intermetallic energy transfer of Tb to Eu was also evaluated.

Two new cadmium(II)-based materials, featuring two-dimensional (2D) [Cd2(μ6-deta)(bpy)(H2O)]n (1) and three-dimensional (3D) [Cd2(μ5-deta)(bpy)2(H2O)]n (2) structures, were constructed by the hydrothermal method from 2,3′,4′,5-diphenyl ether tetracarboxylic acid (H4deta) as an unexplored linker in research on coordination polymers (CPs) and 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) as a mediator of crystallization. Microcrystalline samples of 1 and 2 were analyzed by IR/PXRD/EA/TGA and X-ray diffraction using single crystals. Structures and topologies of CPs 1 and 2 were established, revealing a 4,6L45 topological layer in 1 and a 3,5T1 topological framework in 2. Structural differences for 1 and 2 are attributed to distinct molar ratios between Cd2+ and bpy during the hydrothermal synthesis. Luminescence and thermal behavior of the obtained materials were also investigated. The present work opens up the use of an unexplored 2,3′,4′,5-diphenyl ether tetracarboxylic acid as a versatile and flexible linker toward the generation of functional coordination polymer materials.

The design and synthesis of coordination polymers with a self-penetrating architecture has attracted much interest not only due to their interesting structures but also due to their potential applications. 5,5′-Bis(pyridin-4-yl)-2,2′-bithiophene (bpbp), as a conjugated bithiophene ligand, can exhibit trans and cis conformations and this can lead to the construction of a self-penetrating architecture. In addition, the semi-rigid ancillary ligand 4,4′-oxybis(benzoic acid) (H2oba) can adopt different coordination modes, resulting in coordination polymers with high-dimensional skeletons. A new CdII coordination polymer based on mixed ligands, namely poly[diaquapentakis[μ-5,5′-bis(pyridin-4-yl)-2,2′-bithiophene-κ2 N:N′]bis(nitrato-κ2 O,O′)tetrakis(μ3-4,4′-oxydibenzoato)-κ10 O:O,O′:O′′,O′′′;κ6 O:O′:O′′-pentacadmium(II)], [Cd5(C14H14O5)4(NO3)2(C18H12N2S2)5(H2O)2] n , (I), has been synthesized under solvothermal conditions and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction indicates that there are three crystallographically independent CdII cations, three bpbp ligands, two deprotonated oba2− ligands, one nitrate ligand and one coordinated water molecule in the asymmetric unit. One CdII centre is seven-coordinated, exhibiting a distorted {CdN2O5} pentagonal bipyramidal geometry, while the other two Cd centres are both six-coordinated, showing slightly distorted {CdN2O4} octahedral geometries. The most interesting feature is the co-existence of trans and cis conformations in a single net, allowing structural interpenetration via self-threading and yet the expected self-penetrating structure was obtained. Topological analysis shows that the whole three-dimensional framework can be classified as a 3-nodal (4,6,6)-c net with Schläfli symbol {613.82}2{66}, which is a new topology. Furthermore, the luminescence properties of (I) were examined in the solid state at room temperature.

Compared with the monomorphic type of ligand, combining mixed ligands in one coordination polymer offers greater tunability of the structural framework. Employment of N-heterocyclic ligands and aromatic polycarboxylates is an effective approach for the construction of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). Two new coordination polymers incorporating both 2-[(1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl]-1H-benzimidazole (imb) and benzenedicarboxylic acid isomers, namely, catena-poly[[[di-μ-chlorido-bis[(2-carboxybenzoato-κ2 O 1,O 1′)cadmium(II)]]-bis{μ-2-[(1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl]-1H-benzimidazole-κ2 N:N′}] dihydrate], {[Cd(C8H5O4)Cl(C11H10N4)]·H2O} n , (I), and poly[[aqua(μ2-benzene-1,3-dicarboxylato-κ3 O 1,O 1′:O 3){μ2-2-[(1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl]-1H-benzimidazole-κ2 N:N′}cadmium(II)] dihydrate], {[Cd(C8H4O4)(C11H10N4)(H2O)]·2H2O} n , (II), have been prepared and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In polymer (I), imb ligands bridge CdII ions, forming a one-dimensional chain, and 2-carboxybenzoate anions coordinate to the CdII ions in a terminal fashion. Polymer (II) exhibits a two-dimensional network structure in which imb ligands and the benzene-1,3-dicarboxylate anions join CdII ions co-operatively. This indicates that changing of the aromatic dicarboxylic acids can result in polymers with different compositions and architectures. Moreover, their IR spectra, PXRD (powder X-ray diffraction) patterns, thermogravimetric analyses and fluorescence properties were also investigated.

Reactions of a flexible fluorinated ligand, 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-1,4-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl) benzene (Fbix), with ZnX2 (X =OAc- or NO3-) lead to the formation of the two new ZnII coordination polymers [Zn(Fbix)(OAc)2]n (1) and {[Zn2(Fbix)3(NO3)2](NO3)2(H2O)3}n (2), which have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Although the ZnII centers of both 1 and 2 are in a similar tetrahedral coordination geometry, each ZnII ion in 1 is surrounded by two Fbix spacers and two terminal OAc- anions to form a highly undulated chain, whereas each ZnII ion in 2 is embraced by three Fbix ligands and one NO3- anion to result in a two-dimensional cationic network. Since 1 and 2 are synthesized under the same conditions, the structural differences between them are attributable to the difference of the counterions. The solid-state properties such as thermal stability and luminescence of 1 and 2 have also been studied briefly.

Studying the crystalline structure of uniaxially and biaxially drawn polyesters is of great importance due to their wide range of applications. In this study, we shed some light on the behaviour of PET and PEN under uniaxial stress using experimental and molecular modelling techniques. Comparing experiment with modelling provides insights into polymer crystallisation with extended chains. Experimental x-ray diffraction patterns are reproduced by means of models of chains sliding along the c-axis leading to some loss of three-dimensional order, i.e. moving away from the condition of perfect register of the fully extended chains in triclinic crystals of both PET and PEN. This will help us understand the mechanism of polymer crystallisation under uniaxial stress and the appearance of mesophases in some cases as discussed herein.

The coordination polymer, namely, [Cd(H2L)(nobda)]n (1) was prepared by the reaction of Cd(NO3)2·4H2O with 4-amino-1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid (H2nobda) and 1,4-di(1H-imidazol-4-yl)benzene (H2L), and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). The carboxylic acid of H2nobda ligands was completely deprotonated to be nobda2− anions, which act as tridentate ligand to connect the Cd2+ to form two-dimensional (2D) network, while the neutral H2L ligands serve as a linear didentate bridge to connect two adjacent Cd2+ ions upper and down the 2D layer. The adjacent 2D layers were further linked into the three-dimensional (3D) supramolecular polymer by the weak interactions such as hydrogen bonds and π−π stacking interactions. The ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectra and luminescent properties in the solid state at room temperature have been investigated.
