A new two‐dimensional CdII coordination polymer based on 2‐(1H‐imidazol‐1‐ylmethyl)‐6‐methyl‐1H‐benzimidazole and benzene‐1,2‐dicarboxylate: synthesis, crystal structure and characterization
2017
: In the construction of coordination polymers, many factors can influence the formation of the final architectures, such as the nature of the metal centres, the organic ligands and the counter-anions. In the coordination polymer poly[aqua(μ-benzene-1,2-dicarboxylato-κ4O1,O1':O2,O2')[μ-2-(1H-imidazol-1-ylmethyl)-6-methyl-1H-benzimidazole-κ2N2:N3]cadmium(II)], [Cd(C12H12N4)(C8H4O4)(H2O)]n or [Cd(immb)(1,2-bdic)(H2O)]n, each CdII ion is seven-coordinated by two N atoms from two symmetry-related 2-(1H-imidazol-1-ylmethyl)-6-methyl-1H-benzimidazole (immb) ligands, by four O atoms from two symmetry-related benzene-1,2-dicarboxylate (1,2-bdic2-) ligands and by one water molecule, leading to a CdN2O5 distorted pentagonal bipyramidal coordination environment. The immb and 1,2-bdic2- ligands bridge CdII ions and form a two-dimensional network structure. O-H...O and N-H...O hydrogen bonds stabilize the structure. In addition, the IR spectroscopic properties, PXRD patterns, thermogravimetric behaviour and fluorescence properties of the title polymer have been investigated.
