Construction of new metal coordination polymers (MCPs)has attracted attention due to their diverse structural topologies and potential applications as functional materials such as gas storage,magnetism, catalysis,and luminescence[1-5].Metal-directed selfassembly to construct rigid and robust metal-organic polymers(MCPs)has provided an extensive class of solid materials with high stability and desired physical properties[6-8].Within this context,interpenetration and polycatenation networks with optimal functionalities have attracted particular attention.Interpenetrating net can be described as a series of independent nets that penetrate mutually and polycatenation nets can be described molecules with loops through loops.The structuresofinterpenetrationandpolycatenation arraysnotonlyprovideinterestingtopological structures but also exhibit promising applications as superhardmaterialsfortheirpeculiarmagnetic, optical,and catalytic properties,etc[9-12].

In recent years,the direct use of two types of organic ligands have been found to be an effective method for the synthesis of MCPs,because of their richcoordinationmodes,includingmonodentate, bridging and chelating[13-14].To date,many MCPs have been prepared on the basis of carboxylate-type O-donors and amine-or N-donors.Thereinto,Diphenic acid as O-donor ligand has received much attention in the designed synthesis of coordination polymers[15-17], for example,biphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid(H2bpdc) is a good candidate for construction of coordination polymers.Meanwhile,flexible bis(imidazole)ligands (such as 1,2-bis(imidazole)ethane(1,2-bie),1,3-bis (imidazole)propane(1,3-bip),1,4-bis(imidazole)butane (1,4-bib),1,5-bis(imidazole)pentane(1,5-bip),1,6-bis (imidazole)hexane(1,6-bih)and 1,4-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene(bix)[18-21])bearing alkyl spacers are good choice of N-donor ligands,in which the flexible nature of spacers allows the ligands to bend and rotate when it coordinates to metal centers,and this often causes the structural diversity and different capacities of spatial extension.

In this paper,we report the metal ions induced synthesis of two new complexes,{[Zn(1,3-bip)(bpdc)]· 0.5H2bpdc}n(1)and{[Cd2(1,3-bip)2(bpdc)2]·DMF}n(2), constructedbyusingthesamebiphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid and 1,3-bis(imidazole)propane as the mixed ligands.

2 Results and discussion

2.1 Description of the structures

2.1.1 Crystal structural description of 1

SingleX-raydiffractionstudyrevealedthat complex 1was isostructural with{[Co(1,3-bip)(bpdc)]· 0.5H2bpdc}n,which has been previous reported by our group[17].The asymmetric unit of 1is composed of a four-coordinate Zncenter,a 1,3-bip ligand,a bpdc2-ligand and a half uncoordinated H2bpdc molecule (Fig.1a).Zn1ionadoptsadistortedtetrahedral geometry,coordinating to two nitrogen donors of two 1,3-bip ligands and two oxygen donors of two bpdc2-ligands(Zn1-O10.1960(3)nm,Zn1-O30.1967(4)nm, Z1-N10.2022nm,Z1-N40.1991nm).Both Zn-N and Zn-O bond lengths are well-matched to those observed in similar complexes[24-26].Then,1,3-bip ligand adopts a bis-monodentate bridging mode connecting two Zncenters to form a[Zn(1,3-bip)]24+macrocyclic unit(Fig.1b).Neighboring[Zn(1,3-bip)]24+macrocyclic unit as a 4-connected secondary building unit are further linked by two conformations of bpdc2-ligands in which the two phenyl rings about the central bond have a twist with a dihedral angle of 0°and 41.02°to form a 12-connected oblong building unit{[Zn2(1,3-bip)2]6(bpdc)6},and the uncoordinated H2bpdc molecules are bound inside the pores with intermolecular O-H…O hydrogen bonding interactions(OH2bpdc-H…Obpdc) between O atom of the coordinated bpdc2-ligand and O atom of uncoordinated H2bpdc molecule with O…O distances of 0.2626nm(Fig.1c).The bpdc2-acts as a bridging ligand with bis-monodentatecoordination mode connecting above-mentioned 12-connected oblong building unit to form the porous 3D architecture(Fig. 1d).From the topological perspective,the[Zn(1,3-bip)]24+macrocyclic unit can be considered as a 4-connected uninodal node with a Schlfli symbol of (65,8)cds type topology.By mutual interpenetration of five independent equivalent frameworks,it leads tothe formation of 5-fold 3D→3D parallel interpenetrating architecture(Fig.1e).

2.1.2 Crystal structural description of 2

The complex 2crystallizes in the monoclinic system with P21/c space group.Each asymmetric unit of 2contains two Cdion,two bpdc2-anions,two 1,3-bip ligands and one DMF molecule.As shown in Fig.2a,the two Cdion exhibit same coordination geometry and are coordinated by four carboxylate O atoms(Cd-O 0.2282(6)～0.2524(6)nm)from two bpdc2-anions as the chelate form and two N atoms (Cd-N 0.2245(9)～0.2284(6)nm)from two 1,3-bip ligands,showing a distorted octahedral geometry.Each 1,3-bip acts as a bridging ligand coordinating the adjacent Cdion to form a one dimensional{[Cd (1,3-bip)]chain,where the 1,3-bip ligands show the cis-conformation with the same Cd…Cd distance of 1.1094(9)nm.These chains are further linked by bridging bpdc2-ligands to generate a 2D infinite undulatedrectangular(4,4)gridincorporatinga [Cd4(1,3-bip)2(bpdc)2]window of 1.109nm×1.524nm based on the Cd…Cd distances(Fig.2b).Then a pair of identical 2D single nets are interlocked with each other to form a 2-fold parallel interpenetrated 2D architecture by(Cbip-H…Obpdc0.2348,0.2470,0.2555, 0.2582,0.2719nm)hydrogen bonds(Fig.2c and d), in which the DMF molecules are resided.Although thetwoMCPswereconstructedbythesame carboxylate and N-donor ligand,coordination modes are quite different,resulting in variable framework of the structures,respectively.

2.2 FTIR spectra,X-ray powder diffraction patterns and thermal properties

As shown in Fig.3,the middle band at 3442cm-1for 1further indicates the presence of hydron band betweenuncoordinateddicarboxylateligandand molecular skeleton.The weak bands at 3444cm-1for 2can be assigned to N-H stretching frequency of DMF molecule.The middle band at 3111cm-1and strong band at 1693cm-1belong to O-H and C=O stretchingvibrationbandofuncoordinateddicarboxylate ligand,respectively.The strong peak at 1382cm-1for 1and 1393cm-1for 2indicate the presence of deprotonated-COO-groups.The peaks at 1585and 1393cm-1for 2correspond to the asymmetric and symmetric vibration of the carboxylate group (COO-),and the difference of the value between them is less than 200cm-1,which indicates that the carboxylate groups behave as the chelate coordination modes[27].

Thermogravimetric(TG)measurementswere carried out from 30to 1000℃under N2atmosphere flow with a heating rate of 10℃·min-1.As shown in Fig.6,the framework of complex 1is stable up to 350℃and then the framework begins to collapse.A subsequent weight loss of 88.2%in the temperature range of 350～980℃corresponds to the release of coordinated 1,3-bip,bpdc2-ligands and a half uncoordinated H2bpdc molecule(Calcd.89.3%).Complex 2exhibits a weight loss of 6.07%from 100to 230℃, corresponding to the loss of one free DMF molecule (Calcd.6.45%).It is stable up to about 350℃and then the framework starts to collapse after that temperature.The ultimate frameworks of 1and 2can be stabilized up to 350℃,which are larger than the usual non-interpenetration and polycatenation structures[28].

2.3 Fluorescence properties

Thesolid-stateluminescencepropertiesof complexes 1and 2as well as the free 1,3-bip ligand were investigated at room temperature.Free 1,3-bip shows emission with a maximum at 462nm upon excitation at 330nm in solid state,matching with the previous reports[19].As shown in Fig.7,the maximum emission peaks for complexes 1and 2are observed at458and 460nm upon excitation at 330nm,respectively, which show slight blue shift in wavelength compared with 1,3-bip ligand.The blue shift of the emission maximum between the complex and the ligand may originate from the coordination of the ligand to the metal centers.The Zn/Cdion are difficult to oxidize or reduce because of the d10configuration.So the emissions of these MCPs are neither metal-toligand charge transfer(MLCT)nor ligand-to-metal charge transfer(LMCT)in nature[29-30].Thus,they may be assigned to a mixture characteristics of intraligand and ligand-to-ligand charge transition(LLCT),as reported for other ZnMCPs constructed from mixed N-donor and O-donor ligands[31].The enhancement of luminescence in d10complexes may be attributed to ligand chelation to the metal center which effectively increases the rigidity of the ligand and reduces the loss of energy by radiationless decay.The difference of the emission behaviors for 1and 2probably derives from the differences in the rigidity of solid-state crystal packing.

3 Conclusions

In conclusion,two coordination polymers based on H2bpdc and 1,3-bip mixed ligands have been prepared under solvothermal conditions.By changing the central ion,two new complexes with different structures were constructed.Complex 1features a 3D→3Dfivefoldinterpenetratingframeworkviathe connectivityamongcationic[Zn(1,3-bip)]24+macrocycles and bpdc2-ligands.Complex 2features a 2D→2D (4,4)net.In addition,the photoluminescence investigation shows that two coordination polymers appear potentially applied as luminescent materials.Further experiments exploring the structural effects of the spacer length of bis(imidazole)ligands on coordination polymers,and any resulting changes in physicochemical properties,are underway in our laboratory.

Two metal coordination polymers,namely{[Zn(1,3-bip)(bpdc)]·0.5H2bpdc}n(1),{[Cd2(1,3-bip)2(bpdc)2]· DMF}n(2),where 1,3-bip=1,3-bis(imidazol)propane,H2bpdc=biphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid,were synthesized by changing the central ion with the same mixed ligands under solvothermal conditions.The complexes were further characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction,powder XRD,FTIR,TGA and elemental analysis techniques. Single crystal X-ray analysis revealed that complex 1exhibits a 5-fold 3D→3D parallel interpenetrating frameworks.Complex 2features a 2D→2D(4,4)net,which are interlocked with each other to form a 2-fold parallel interpenetrating 2D architecture.The varieties in coordination numbers of the central metals are the key reasons for the structural differences.In addition,the photoluminescence properties of 1and 2in the solid state at room temperature were also investigated.CCDC:1011050,1;1013480,2.
