Six new coordination polymers, [Eu(1,2-BDC)(1,2-HBDC)(phen)(H(2)O)](n) (1), [Eu(2)(1,3-BDC)(3)(phen)(2)(H(2)O)(2)](n).4nH(2)O (2), [Eu(1,4-BDC)(3/2)(phen)(H(2)O)](n) (3), [Yb(2)(1,2-BDC)(3)(phen)(H(2)O)(2)](n).3.5nH(2)O (4), [Yb(2)(1,3-BDC)(3)(phen)(1/2)](n) (5), and [Yb(2)(1,4-BDC)(3)(phen)(2)(H(2)O)](n) (6), were synthesized by hydrothermal reactions of lanthanide chlorides with three isomers of benzenedicarboxylic acid (H(2)BDC) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. 1 has a 2-D herringbone architecture with a Z-shaped cavity. 2 and 5 have different 3-D networks, but both are formed by 1,3-BDC anions bridging metal centers (Eu or Yb) via carboxylate groups. 3 and 6 possess similar layer structures which are further constructed to form 3-D networks by hydrogen bonds and/or pi-pi aromatic interactions. 4 comprises 1-D chains that are further interlinked via hydrogen bonds, resulting in a 3-D network. In the three europium complexes, all the europium ions are eight-coordinated, while the coordination numbers of the ytterbium ions in other three-coordination polymers range from six to eight. Crystal data: for 1, monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c, with a = 12.565(6) A, b = 16.005(8) A, c = 12.891(6) A, beta = 102.173(8) degrees, and Z = 4; for 2, monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c, with a = 20.979(4) A, b = 11.5989(19) A, c = 20.810(3) A, beta = 110.391(3) degrees, and Z = 4; for 3, triclinic, space group P1, with a = 10.331(5) A, b = 10.887(5) A, c = 11.404(5) A, alpha = 107.660(7) degrees, beta = 91.787(7) degrees, gamma = 112.946(6) degrees, and Z = 2; for 4, triclinic, space group P1, with a = 11.517(5) A, b = 13.339(5) A, c = 13.595(6) A, alpha = 87.888(7) degrees, beta = 67.759(6) degrees, gamma = 68.070(6) degrees, and Z = 2; for 5, orthorhombic, space group C222(1), with a = 8.174(2) A, b = 24.497(7) A, c = 29.161(8) A, and Z = 8; for 6, triclinic, space group P1, with a = 10.349(3) A, b = 11.052(3) A, c = 19.431(6) A, alpha = 105.464(4) degrees, beta = 91.300(5) degrees, gamma = 93.655(5) degrees, and Z = 2. The magnetic properties of 1 and 4 were investigated. The photophysical properties of 1 were also studied.
Two novel heptanuclear lanthanide clusters of the dicubane-like type [Ln(7)(micro(3)-OH)(8)](13+) (Ln = Ho (1), Yb (2)) were obtained via hydrothermal reaction, and as building blocks, they were formally assembled into porous three-dimensional networks through the linkage of 1,4-naphthalenedicarboxylate (1,4-NDA), forming first examples of porous lanthanide polymers with 1,4-NDA, [Ln(7)(micro(3)-OH)(8)(1,4-NDA)(6)(OH)(0.5)(Ac)(0.5)(H(2)O)(7)].4H(2)O (Ln = Ho, Yb). The coordinating water molecules and lattice water molecules are enclathrated in the cavities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
