A new luminous hexacoordinated coordination polymer of cadmium(II) containing benzidine and dicyanamide as bridging units

Zinc(II) and Cadmium(II) complexes with N4-coordinate pyrazole based ligand: Syntheses, characterization and structure

“…But it is not possible to know whether they will act as monodentate or bridging ligand in the bi-and polynuclear complexes. Although a large number of mono, bi-and polynuclear complexes of copper(II), nickel(II) with azide or thiocyanate or isocyanate have been reported, number of papers on zinc(II) and cadmium(II) complexes with pseudohalides are relatively less [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. Among the pseudohalides containing cadmium complexes, the number of isocyanate containing cadmium complexes structurally characterized is rare.…”

Synthesis, Structure and Reactivity of a Cyapho‐Cyanamide Salt

“…[2][3][4][5][6][7] Similarly, in coordination chemistry, metal-dicyanamide coordination polymers have been shown to exhibit interesting luminescent and magnetic properties. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] Analogues of the dicyanamide ion in which one (or several) of the nitrogen atoms are replaced by a heavier group 15 element are rare. The dicyanophosphide ion ([P(CN) 2 ] À ) was first synthesised by Schmidpeter in 1977 and structurally authenticated two years later, [17,18] however the reported syntheses for this anion were low yielding and atom inefficient.…”

Synthesis of Heavy Dicyanamide Homologues from Air‐Stable Precursors

“…[2][3][4][5][6] Transition-metaland rare-earth element-DCA complexes exhibit remarkable luminescent and magnetic properties thanks to the pseudohalide's small size and high degree of conjugation. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] DCA has even been suspected of playing ar ole in primordial biogenesis due to its propensity to promotep eptide synthesis under conditions similar to those of primitive Earth. [20][21][22][23] As with many nitrogen compounds of fundamentala nd historical importance, [24][25][26] interest in heavierD CA homologuesh as been conveyed on many counts due to the property differences which the heavierp nictogensm ight impart on these materials.…”
