A new family of two-dimensional metal coordination polymers with the general formula [M(ox)(bpy)] (M = Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II); ox C2O42-; bpy 4,4'-bipyridine) have been designed and synthesized via hydrothermal routes. Quantitative yields were obtained in all cases. The title compounds [Fe(ox)(bpy)] (I), [Co(ox)(bpy)] (II), [Ni(ox)(bpy)] (III), [Zn(ox)(bpy)] (IV) represent first network structure constructed by bridging oxalate 4,4'-bpy mixed ligands. I−IV are isostructural belong to...
By controlling stoichiometry, three Copper(I) containing coordination polymers [Cu2Cl2(bpy)] (I), [Cu2Br2(bpy)] (II), and [CuBr(bpy)] (III) (bpy = 4,4'-bipyridine) have been synthesized in superheated water at 170 °C. The crystal structures of I II are two-dimensional networks composed Cu2X2 double chains bridged by 4,4'-bpy molecules through the nitrogen sites. structure III is a three-dimensional interpenetrating network constructed concatenated 2D sheets. TGA studies indicate that these...
Two-dimensional transition-metal coordination polymers [MCl2(bpy)] (M = Fe, Co, Ni; Co/Ni, bpy 4, 4'-bipyridine) have been synthesized in superheated water solutions. The hydrothermal routes resulted four compounds [FeCl2(bpy)](I), [CoCl2(bpy)](II), [NiCl2(bpy)](III), and [(Co/Ni)Cl2(bpy)](IV). Compounds I−IV are isostructural belong to orthorhombic crystal system, space group Cmmm (No. 65). Crystal data for I: a 11.929(2) Å, b 11.447(2) c 3.638(1) V 496.77(18) Å3, Z 2. II: 11.993(2)...
A novel porous framework polymer with expandable structure, over 8% volume expansion upon inclusion, has been characterized.
Reactions of CuX2 (X = Cl, Br) and 2,2‘-dipyridylamine (dpa) in superheated water (170 °C) led to a chemical rearrangement dpa dpiz (dpiz dipyrido[1,2-a:2‘,3‘-d]imidazole C10H7N3) new Cu(I)-based coordination polymers (CuX)2(dpiz) (CuX)3(dpiz). The crystal structures [(CuCl)2(C10H7N3)] (I) [(CuBr)3(C10H7N3)] (II) were reported. two are built upon common structural motif Cu2X4(C10H7N3).
A simultaneous reduction of copper(II) to copper(I) by pyridinecarboxylate and the substitution carboxylato groups iodo nucleophiles in a self-assembly process under hydrothermal conditions afforded new iodine-inclusion coordination polymer [CuI(C5H3NI2)*1/2I2] 1. The synthetic studies produced supramolecular compound [IC5H3NCOOH] 2 revealed that catalytic properties copper ions redox reactions are attractive. Crystal data for [CuI(C5H3NI2)*1/2I2]: triclinic, space group P1; cell dimensions...

A new green energetic metal–organic framework has potential application prospects in the fields of greener propellants and multi-dimensional magnetic materials.
Two flexible V-shape ligands, namely, 1,3-bis(pyridine-4-ylmethoxy)benzene (4-bpmb) and 1,3-bis(pyridine-2-ylmethoxy)benzene (2-bpmb), have been synthesized employed for constructing eight novel coordination polymers, {[Zn(4-bpmb)(H2O)(NO3)2]·(4-bpmb)}n (1), {[Cd(4-bpmb)(H2O)(NO3)2]·(4-bpmb)}n (2), {[Hg(4-bpmb)(H2O)(NO3)2]·(4-bpmb)}n (3), {[Zn4(2-bpmb)4Cl8]·C5H5N}n (4), {[Hg(2-bpmb)Cl2]·2H2O}n (5), [Cu4(μ-CH3COO)8(2-bpmb)2]n (6), [Ag(2-bpmb)(NO3)]n (7), {[Cu(2-bpmb)(H2O)2]·(NO3)2}n (8)....
In this work, a new energetic coordination polymer (ECP), [Cu(HBTI)(H2O)]n (1) (H3BTI = 4,5-bistetrazole-imidazole), was synthesized by hydrothermal method. Due to the existence of water molecules in 1, however, its energy density limited, which led insufficient detonation performance. To further improve performance, [Cu(H2BTI)(NO3)]n (2) then obtained substituting coordinated molecule 1 with nitrate through substitution reaction under acidic conditions. The structures two ECPs were...
