Solvothermal synthesis and structural characterization of a new one-dimensional chain coordination polymer [Co(Bpdc)(Dpa)]n (H2Bpdc = benzophenone-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid, Dpa = 2,2′-dipyridylanine)

A new one-dimensional (1D) zigzag chain coordination polymer [Co(Bpdc)(Dpa)] n (H2Bpdc = benzophenone-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid, Dpa = 2,2′-dipyridylanine) (I) has been synthesized under solvothermal conditions and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. The X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that I crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c. The unit cell parameters for I: a = 12.586(1), b = 15.3415(1), c = 11.345(1) β = 91.719(7)°, V = 2173.1(3) A3, Z = 4.
