A new two-dimensional Co^II coordination polymer based on bis[4-(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl] ether and biphenyl-4,4′-diyldicarboxylic acid: synthesis, crystal structure and photocatalytic degradation activity

Abstract

n , has been prepared and characterized by IR, elemental analysis, thermal analysis and singlecrystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure reveals that the compound has an achiral two-dimensional layered structure based on opposite-handed helical chains. In addition, it exhibits significant photocatalytic degradation activity for the degradation of methylene blue.

A threefold interpenetrating two-dimensional zinc(II) coordination polymer: synthesis, crystal structure and selective luminescence sensing properties

“…4,4 0 -Bis(2-methylimidazol-1-yl)diphenyl ether (BMIOPE) was synthesized according to a procedure described previously (Chen et al, 2018). All other reagents and solvents used in the experiment were purchased from commercial sources and used without further purification.…”

“…As a multidentate carboxylate ligand, 4,4 0 -sulfonyldibenzoic acid (H 2 SDBA), with two carboxyl units, has proven to be a good bridging ligand for the construction of novel CPs (Hazari et al, 2016;Zhang et al, 2013). In addition, 4,4 0 -bis(2-methylimidazol-1yl)diphenyl ether (BMIOPE) as a V-shaped 2-methylimidazole ligand can be regarded as a fairly flexible ligand for the construction of novel CPs (Chen et al, 2018;Chen, 2019). The Fe 3+ ion is the most important element in environmental systems and plays a fundamental role in biological processes, which are of great importance in many vital cell functions of humans and other animals.…”

A self-penetrated three-dimensional zinc(II) coordination framework based on 4,4′,4′′-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyl)tribenzoic acid and 1,3-bis[(imidazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene ligands: synthesis, structure and properties

“…Currently, multifunctional aromatic polycarboxylic acids have made breakthroughs in MOF materials, exemplified by the increasing number of MOFs (Zheng et al, 2012;Yang et al, 2015). MOFs constructed by aromatic polycarboxylic acids often display outstanding structural rigidities and stabilities due to the existence of aromatic rings (Chen et al, 2018). Furthermore, nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ligands are also vital parts of MOFs and contribute to their special features, such as novel structures, numerous derivatives and strong coordination abilities.…”

A fourfold interpenetrating diamond-like three-dimensional zinc(II) coordination polymer: synthesis, crystal structure and physical properties

“…Due to its versatile bridging modes via two carboxyl groups, furan-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (H 2 FDC) has been shown to be a good bridging ligand for the construction of novel CPs (Bu et al, 2015;Singh & Nagaraja, 2014;Wang et al, 2017). On the other hand, as a V-shaped flexible derivative of 2-methylimidazole, bis[4-(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl] ether (BMIOPE) possesses the merits of methylimidazole and can coordinate with metal ions in various modes (Chen et al, 2018). On the basis of the aforementioned points, we explored the self-assembly of the Zn II ion, H 2 FDC and BMIOPE under hydrothermal conditions and obtained a novel three-dimensional (3D) coordination polymer, viz.…”
