Two novel coordination polymers: Synthesis, structure, luminescent properties, and selective sensing of Cu2+ and Mn2+ ions

Resumo

Two novel coordination polymers, namely {[Co(Ttac)_0.5(1,4-Bib)(H₂O)] · H₂O}_n (I) and {[La(HTtac)₂(2H₂O)] · H₂O}n (II) (H4Ttac = 4,5-di(3'-carboxylphenyl)-phthalic acid, 1,4-Bib = 1,4-bis(1-imidazoly) benzene), have been designed and successfully prepared via hydrothermal process, and characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectroscopy, and single crystal X-ray diffraction (CIF files CCDC nos. 1039298 (I), 1039300 (II)). Structural analysis reveals that the H₄Ttac ligands adopt different coordination modes in the as-synthesized I and II, and thus give rise to the targeted coordination polymers with different configurations. It is worth mentioning that, coordination polymer I is assembled from low-dimensional structures into three-dimensional (3D) via π···π stacking interactions, while three-dimensional coordination polymer II is formed by covalent bonds. Luminescent properties of coordination polymer II have been studied at ambient temperature. Significantly, luminescent measurement indicates that coordination polymer II may be acted as potential luminescent recognition sensors towards Cu²⁺ and Mn²⁺ ions.
