Synthesis and crystal structure of one-dimensional zinc(II) polymer constructed by salicylate and trans-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene

An interesting pseudo-honeycomb supramolecular arrangement obtained from the interaction between 4-aminosalicylic acid, trans-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene and transition metal ions

“…The main vibrational modes are summarized in Table 4, as well as the tentative assignment based on similar chemical systems. [31][32][33][34] In the infrared spectrum of the aminosalicylate anion can be observed a broad band around 3200-3500 cm À1 region, assigned to the stretching modes of H 2 O and NH 2 groups. These same bands are also observed for the three complexes, suggesting the hydration of all synthesized compounds, previously confirmed by the data from elemental analysis and X-ray diffraction.…”

1D Chain Crystal Structure of Copper(II) Oxalate Containing a 4,4'-Bipyridine and 1,10-Phenanthroline Ligands: [Cu2(ox)(4,4'-bpy)(phen)2](NO3)2

“…[11][12][13] We have been pursuing synthetic strategies for the preparation of non-interpenetrating open frameworks with variable cavities or channels, in which rod-like rigid spacers such as 4,4'-bpy and related species are chosen as building blocks. [14][15][16] One of our research interests has focused on a systematic study of the discrete polynuclear transition metal(II) compounds with aliphatic dicarboxylates. Although many interesting examples of the metal-carboxylate complexes have been reported, [17][18][19] the development of synthetic routes to systems containing the dicarboxylate is still required for the rational design and synthesis.…”
