“…Most of the coordinated metal centers of these compounds involve in Zn 2+ , Cd 2+ , or Mn 2+ . However, the tetrazole coordination polymers with main group metal elements have rarely been reported before (only one known mono-tetrazole potassium coordination polymer was reported) [6]. In our present investigation, we have performed the reaction of trans-1,4-dicyanoethylene-2 with ZnCl 2 in the presence of NaN 3 and sodium hydroxide under hydrothermal conditions, and obtained a sodium ditetrazole coordination polymer [7] which represents the first 1D chain structural Na coordination polymer (Scheme 1).…”
