Construction of a new one-dimensional Hg(II) coordination polymer [Hg4(Chbz)4(4,4′-Bipy)2(NO3)4 · H2O] n involving in situ chlorobenzene synthesis

A Novel Mercury Coordination Compound With Yellow Photoluminescence

“…The N-Hg-N and N-Hg-C bond angles vary from 94.62(19)° to 95.48(18)°, while the C-Hg-C bond angle is 164.5(4)°. Other bond lengths and angles are similar to those in the reported Hg-Bipy complexes [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. The two Bipy ligands around a mercury ion are nearly perpendicular to each other with a N11A-Hg1-N11 (symmetry code A: 1-x, y, 1.5-z) bond angle of 94.62(19)°.…”

“…On the other hand, the Bipy ligand possesses a delocalized π-electron system, which makes it an excellent candidate for preparing luminescent compounds with abundant potential applications, such as emitting materials in diodes [9], sensitizers in solar energy conversion [10], and chemical sensors [11]. Comparing with other transition metal compounds based on the Bipy ligand, mercury-Bipy compounds have been relatively little explored in the literatures [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. In the present paper, mercury nitrate and Bipy were selected to assemble a novel coordination compound, namely, Hg(Bipy)(CN) 2 (1).…”
