A new 2,2′-bi-1H-benzimidazole bridging organic ligand, namely 1,1′-bis(pyridin-4-ylmethyl)-2,2′-bi-1H-benzimidazole, C26H20N6,Lor (I), has been synthesized and used to create three new one-dimensional coordination polymers,viz.catena-poly[[dichloridomercury(II)]-μ-1,1′-bis(pyridin-4-ylmethyl)-2,2′-bi-1H-benzimidazole], [HgCl2(C26H20N6)]n, (II), and the bromido, [HgBr2(C26H20N6)]n, (III), and iodido, [HgI2(C26H20N6)]n, (IV), analogues. Free ligandLcrystallizes with two symmetry-independent half-molecules in the asymmetric unit and eachLmolecule resides on a crytallographic inversion centre. In structures (II)–(IV), theLligand is also positioned on a crystallographic inversion centre, whereas the Hg centre resides on a crystallographic twofold axis. Compound (I) adopts ananticonformation in the solid state and forms a two-dimensional network in the crystallographicbcplaneviaπ–π and C—H...π interactions. The three HgIIcoordination complexes, (II)–(IV), have one-dimensional zigzag chains composed ofLand HgX2(X= Cl, Br and I), and the HgIIcentres are in a distorted tetrahedral [HgX2N2] coordination geometry. Complexes (III) and (IV) are isomorphous, whereas complex (II) displays an interesting conformational difference from the others,i.e.a twist in the flexible bridging ligand.

Two one-dimensional (1D) coordination polymers (CPs), namely catena-poly[[[aqua(2,2′-bipyridine-κ2 N,N′)(nitrato-κO)copper(II)]-μ-1,3-bis(pyridin-4-yl)propane-κ2 N:N′] nitrate], {[Cu(NO3)(C10H8N2)(C13H14N2)(H2O)]·NO3} n (1), and catena-poly[[[aqua(nitrato-κO)(1,10-phenanthroline-κ2 N,N′)copper(II)]-μ-1,3-bis(pyridin-4-yl)propane-κ2 N:N′] nitrate], {[Cu(NO3)(C12H8N2)(C13H14N2)(H2O)]·NO3} n (2), have been synthesized using [Cu(NO3)(NN)(H2O)2]NO3, where NN = 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), as a linker in a 1:1 molar ratio. The CPs were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and single-crystal X-ray structure determination. The 1,3-bis(pyridin-4-yl)propane (dpp) ligand acts as a bridging ligand, leading to the formation of a 1D polymer. The octahedral coordination sphere around copper consists of two N atoms from bpy for 1 or phen for 2, two N atoms from dpp, one O atom from water and one O atom from a coordinated nitrate anion. Each structure contains two crystallographically independent chains in the asymmetric unit and the chains are linked via hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network.

The novel asymmetric bridging ligand 1-[(pyridin-3-yl)methyl]-2-[4-(pyridin-3-yl)phenyl]-1H-benzimidazole (L) has been used to construct the coordination polymerscatena-poly[[[dibromidocadmium(II)]-μ3-1-[(pyridin-3-yl)methyl]-2-[4-(pyridin-3-yl)phenyl]-1H-benzimidazole] monohydrate], {[CdBr2(C24H18N4)]·H2O}n, (I), andcatena-poly[[diiodidocadmium(II)]-μ3-1-[(pyridin-3-yl)methyl]-2-[4-(pyridin-3-yl)phenyl]-1H-benzimidazole], [CdI2(C24H18N4)]n, (II). Compounds (I) and (II) are closely related one-dimensional polymers based on 16- and 20-membered macrocycles along the chains, but they are not isomorphous. The chains are crosslinked into a two-dimensional networkviahydrogen bonds and π–π interactions in (I), and into a three-dimensional framework through π–π interactions in (II). One well-ordered solvent water molecule per asymmetric unit is included in (I) and forms O...Br hydrogen bonds.

The title compound, [Cd3(C8H10O4)3(C12H9N3)2(H2O)2]nor [Cd3(chdc)3(4-PyBIm)2(H2O)2]n, was synthesized hydrothermally from the reaction of Cd(CH3COO)2·2H2O with 2-(pyridin-4-yl)-1H-benzimidazole (4-PyBIm) and cyclohexane-1,4-dicarboxylic acid (1,4-chdcH2). The asymmetric unit consists of one and a half CdIIcations, one 4-PyBIm ligand, one and a half 1,4-chdc2−ligands and one coordinated water molecule. The central CdIIcation, located on an inversion centre, is coordinated by six carboxylate O atoms from six 1,4-chdc2−ligands to complete an elongated octahedral coordination geometry. The two terminal rotationally symmetric CdIIcations each exhibits a distorted pentagonal–bipyramidal geometry, coordinated by one N atom from 4-PyBIm, five O atoms from three 1,4-chdc2−ligands and one O atom from an aqua ligand. The 1,4-chdc2−ligands possess two conformations,i.e.e,e-trans-chdc2−ande,a-cis-chdc2−. Thecis-1,4-chdc2−ligands bridge the CdIIcations to form a trinuclear {Cd3}-based chain along thebaxis, while thetrans-1,4-chdc2−ligands further link adjacent one-dimensional chains to construct an interesting two-dimensional network.

The reaction of bis(3-oxo-1,3-diphenylprop-1-enolato-κ2 O,O′)zinc(II), [Zn(dbm)2], with tris[4-(pyridin-3-yl)phenyl]amine (T3PyA) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) afforded the title crystalline coordination polymer, {[Zn(C15H11O2)2(C33H24N4)]·C4H8O} n . The asymmetric unit contains two independent halves of Zn(dbm)2, one T3PyA and one THF. Each ZnII atom is located on an inversion centre and adopts an elongated octahedral coordination geometry, ligated by four O atoms of two dbm ligands in equatorial positions and by two N atoms of pyridine moieties from two different bridging T3PyA ligands in axial positions. The crystal packing shows a one-dimensional polymer chain in which the two pyridyl groups of the T3PyA ligand bridge two independent Zn atoms of Zn(dbm)2. In the crystal, the coordination polymer chains are linked via C—H...π interactions into a sheet structure parallel to (010). The sheets are cross-linked via further C—H...π interactions into a three-dimensional network. The solvate THF molecule shows disorder over two sets of atomic sites having occupancies of 0.631 (7) and 0.369 (7).

Photocatalysis is a green technology for the treatment of all kinds of contaminants and has advantages over other treatment methods. Recently, much effort has been devoted to developing new photocatalytic materials based on metal–organic frameworks for use in the degradation of many kinds of organic contaminants. With the aim of searching for more effective photocatalysts, the title three-dimensional coordination polymer, [Cd2(C8H4O4)2(C18H16N2O2)]n, was prepared. The asymmetric unit contains one CdIIcation, one benzene-1,2-dicarboxylate anion (denotedL2−) and half of a centrosymmetric 1,4-bis(pyridin-3-ylmethoxy)benzene ligand (denoted bpmb). Each CdIIcentre is five-coordinated by four carboxylate O atoms from twoL2−ligands and by one N atom from a bpmb ligand, forming a disordered pentagonal pyramidal coordination geometry. The CdIIcentres are interlinked byL2−ligands to form a one-dimensional [Cd2L2]nchain. Adjacent chains are further connected by bpmb linkers, giving rise to a two-dimensional network, and these networks are pillared by bpmb to afford a three-dimensional framework with a 33.42.63.71.81topology. Each grid in the framework has large channels which are filled mainly by the two other equivalent frameworks to form a threefold interpenetrating net. The compound exhibits relatively good photocatalytic activity towards the degradation of methylene blue in aqueous solution under UV irradiation.

The new 4-amino-1,2,4-triazole asymmetric bridging ligand 4-amino-5-(pyridin-3-yl)-3-[4-(pyridin-4-yl)phenyl]-4H-1,2,4-triazole (L) has been used to generate three novel isomorphic one-dimensional coordination polymers,viz. catena-poly[[tris[dichloridomercury(II)]-bis{μ3-4-amino-5-(pyridin-3-yl)-3-[4-(pyridin-4-yl)phenyl]-4H-1,2,4-triazole}] acetonitrile monosolvate], {[Hg3Cl6(C18H14N6)2]·CH3CN}n, (I), and the bromido, {[Hg3Br6(C18H14N6)2]·CH3CN}n, (II), and iodido, {[Hg3I6(C18H14N6)2]·CH3CN}n, (III), analogs. The asymmetric ligand acts as a tridentate ligand to coordinate the three different HgIIcenters (two of which are symmetry-related). Two ligands and two symmetry-related HgIIcenters form centrosymmetric rectangular units which are linked into one-dimensional chainsviathe other unique Hg atoms, which sit on mirror planes. The chains are elaborated into a three-dimensional structureviainterchain hydrogen bonds. The acetonitrile solvent molecules are located in ellipsoidal cavities. The luminescent character of these three coordination complexes was investigated in the solid state.

Two new dicarboxylate-based three-dimensional cobalt coordination polymers, [Co(Me2mal)(bpe)0.5(H2O)]n (1) and [Co(Me2mal)(bpe)0.5]n (2), were synthesized from dimethylmalonic acid (H2-Me2mal) in temperature-controlled solvothermal reactions. Lower temperatures (60–80 °C) favored the formation of 1, while higher temperatures (120 °C) favored the production of 2. Compound 1 is comprised of Co(II) corrugated layers linked by syn–anti carboxylate bridges from the Me2mal2− ligands and pillared through bis-monodentate bpe groups. Compound 2 is comprised of a three-dimensional network involving one-dimensional Co–carboxylate chains bonded by antisymmetric µ4-Me2mal2− ligands and aligned parallel to the [001] direction. The solvothermal retreatment of crystalline samples of 1 in a DMF/H2O solvent at 120 °C allowed the structural reassembly, with complete conversion within 2 over 48 h. Magnetic analyses revealed that compound 1 exhibits both spin-orbital coupling and antiferromagnetic interactions through a syn–anti carboxylate (Me2mal2−) bridge exchange pathway [Co–Co separation of 5.478 Å] and compound 2 showed a ferromagnetic interaction resulting from the short Co–Co separation (3.150 Å) and the small Co–O–Co bridging angles (98.5° and 95.3°) exchange pathway which was provided by µ4-Me2mal2− bridging ligand.

The title compounds,catena-poly[[[bis[(R)-propane-1,2-diamine-κ2N,N′]copper(II)]-μ-cyanido-κ2N:C-[tris(cyanido-κC)(nitroso-κN)iron(III)]-μ-cyanido-κ2C:N] monohydrate], {[Cu(Lpn)2][Fe(CN)5(NO)]·H2O}n, (I), and poly[[hexa-μ-cyanido-κ12C:N-hexacyanido-κ6C-hexakis[(R)-propane-1,2-diamine-κ2N,N′]dichromium(III)tricopper(II)] pentahydrate], {[Cu(Lpn)2]3[Cr(CN)6]2·5H2O}n, (II) [where Lpn = (R)-propane-1,2-diamine, C3H10N2], are new chiral cyanide-bridged bimetallic coordination polymers. The asymmetric unit of compound (I) is composed of two independent cation–anion units of {[Cu(Lpn)2][Fe(CN)5)(NO)]} and two water molecules. The FeIIIatoms have distorted octahedral geometries, while the CuIIatoms can be considered to be pentacoordinate. In the crystal, however, the units align to form zigzag cyanide-bridged chains propagating along [101]. Hence, the CuIIatoms have distorted octahedral coordination spheres with extremely long semicoordination Cu—N(cyanido) bridging bonds. The chains are linked by O—H...N and N—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming two-dimensional networks parallel to (010), and the networks are linkedviaN—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional framework. Compound (II) is a two-dimensional cyanide-bridged coordination polymer. The asymmetric unit is composed of two chiral {[Cu(Lpn)2][Cr(CN)6]}−anions bridged by a chiral [Cu(Lpn)2]2+cation and five water molecules of crystallization. Both the CrIIIatoms and the central CuIIatom have distorted octahedral geometries. The coordination spheres of the outer CuIIatoms of the asymmetric unit can be considered to be pentacoordinate. In the crystal, these units are bridged by long semicoordination Cu—N(cyanide) bridging bonds forming a two-dimensional network, hence these CuIIatoms now have distorted octahedral geometries. The networks, which lie parallel to (10-1), are linkedviaO—H...O, O—H...N, N—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds involving all five non-coordinating water molecules, the cyanide N atoms and the NH2groups of the Lpn ligands, forming a three-dimensional framework.

The isotypic title one-dimensional coordination polymers, [CdCl2(C18H14N4O4)]n, (I), and [HgCl2(C18H14N4O4)]n, (II), are, respectively, the cadmium(II) and mercury(II) complexes of the dimethyl ester of 5,6-bis(pyridin-2-yl)pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid. In both compounds, the metal ions are located on a twofold rotation axis and a second such axis bisects the Car—Carbonds of the pyrazine ring. The metal ions are bridged by binding to the N atoms of the two pyridine rings and have anMN2Cl2bisphenoidal coordination geometry. The metal–Npyrazinedistances are much longer than the metal–Npyridinedistances; the difference is 0.389 (2) Å for the Cd—N bonds but only 0.286 (5) Å for the Hg—N bond lengths. In the crystals of both compounds, the polymer chains are linkedviapairs of C—H...Cl hydrogen bonds, forming corrugated slabs parallel to theacplane.
