Magnetite nanoparticle-supported coordination polymer nanofibers: synthesis and catalytic application in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling.

Abstract: Functional nanoscale coordination polymers are receiving growing scientific interest because of their potential applications in many domains. In this paper, we demonstrated that a nanofibrous networked metal−organic gel (G1-MNPs) was formed by simply mixing 4,4′,4′′-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyl)tris(N-(pyridin-3-ylmethyl)benzamide) (L) and Pd(COD)(NO3)2 in CHCl3-MeOH with a Pd/L molar ratio of 1:1 in the presence of magnetite nanoparticle (MNPs). The self-assembly behavior of nanofibers was not significantly effected by the introduction of magnetite nanoparticles. The xerogel of G1-MNPs was superparamagnetic and showed catalytic activity in Suzuki-Miyaura C−C coupling reactions. The Pd(II) xerogel could be magnetically isolated and recycled with a permanent magnet. It represents a novel strategy to introduce nanoparticles into functional coordination polymers for multifunctional materials.

Cages with Tetrahedron‐Like Topology Formed from the Combination of Cyclotricatechylene Ligands with Metal Cations

Abstract: Cage the elephant: anionic tetrahedral assemblies, formed from the combination of cyclotricatechylene anions with transition metal ions, such as vanadium, contain large internal cavities that can act as hosts for alkali metal ions and solvent molecules. With appropriate metal centers, the anionic units can be linked together to form highly symmetric coordination polymers (V blue, O red, C black).

Clathrochelate-based bipyridyl ligands of nanoscale dimensions: easy-to-access building blocks for supramolecular chemistry

Abstract: Boronic acid-capped clathrochelates were used to build rigid, linear bipyridyl ligands with adjustable lengths between 1.5 and 5.4 nm. The syntheses can be accomplished in one or two steps from simple starting materials. The potential of these ligands as building blocks for metallasupramolecular chemistry is unveiled through the preparation of a discrete metallamacrocyclic structure and a heterometallic coordination polymer.

Seven novel coordination polymers constructed by rigid 4-(4-carboxyphenyl)-terpyridine ligands: synthesis, structural diversity, luminescence and magnetic properties

Abstract: Seven coordination polymers, namely [Mn(4-cptpy)2]n (1), [Co(4-cptpy)2]n (2), [Mn3(4-cptpy)6(H2O)]n·2nH2O (3), [Co(4-cptpy)(HCOO)(H2O)]n·nDMF (4), [Zn2(4-Hcptpy)2Cl4]n·2nC2H5OH·nH2O (5), [Co4(3-cptpy)4(HCOO)4(H2O)2]n (6), and [Mn(3-cptpy)2]n (7) (4-Hcptpy = 4-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,2′:6′,4′′-terpyridine; 3-Hcptpy = 4-(4-carboxyphenyl)-3,2′:6′,3′′-terpyridine), have been synthesized under hydro(solvo)thermal conditions and structurally characterized. A general solvothermal method is proposed for preparing carboxylate complexes in DMF solution without any basic additive. 1 and 2 possess isostructural 3D metal–organic frameworks containing nanosized cavities. 3 is a beautiful 2D coordination polymer assembled by flower-like Mn3(4-cptpy)6(H2O) subunits. 4 and 6 both display 2D polymeric networks constructed from 4/3-cptpy− ligands, in which the formate ligands originate from the hydrolysis of DMF. 5 is a 1D 21 helical chain polymer. 7 shows a 2D network with a (3.6) two-nodal kgd topology. 4/3-Hcptpy ligands display seven types of coordination modes. The zinc complex 5 emits strong violet luminescence. 1 and 2 are both thermally stable below 440 °C and exhibit antiferromagnetic interactions.

Synthesis and characterization of novel grid coordination polymer networks generated from unsymmetrically bridging ligands.

Abstract: Self-assembly between simple unsymmetrical ligands, such as 1-(3-pyridyl)-2-(4-pyridyl)ethene (L(1)) and 1-methyl-1'-(3-pyridyl)-2-(4-pyrimidyl)ethene (L(2)), and Co(NCS)(2) affords the unprecedented two-dimensional grid coordination polymers [Co(L(1))(2)(NCS)(2)](infinity) (1) and [Co(L(2))(2)(NCS)(2)](infinity) (2), respectively, with novel topological features which cannot be achieved using symmetrically bridging ligands.
