Abstract top

The title coordination polymer, [Ag2(C10H4O8)(C12H9N3)2]n, was prepared by a hydrothermal method. The AgI atom exists in a strongly distorted trigonal coordination environment. Two AgI ions related by an inversion centre are coordinated by two 2-(3-pyridyl)benzimidazole ligands, forming a centrosymmetric cyclic dimer. The bridging bidentate 2,5-dicarboxybenzene-1,4-dicarboxylate ligand is also located on an inversion centre and connects the binuclear units, generating a one-dimensional polymer. The almost-planar conformation of this ligand allows it to form a strong intramolecular O-H...O hydrogen bond. Finally, intermolecular N-H...O hydrogen bonds aggregate the chains into a three-dimensional framework.

Comment top

1,2,4,5-Benzenetetracarboxylic acid (H4BTEC) has been regarded as an excellent candidate for the construction of multi-dimensional coordination polymers for its versatile coordination modes and rich hydrogen bonding (Cao et al., 2002; Hu et al., 2004; Li et al., 2003). The coordination supramolecular architectures are controlled by the extent of the deprotonation of H4BTEC, nature of the auxiliary ligands, and metal coordination centers.

In the title coordination polymer, (I), the AgI is three coordinated (Fig. 1). Two symmetry related AgI ions are bonded by four N atoms from two 2-(3-pyridyl)-1H-benzimidazole ligands in the head to end mode, forming a centrosymmetric cyclic dimer. The coordination sphere of the cyclic dimer is completed by the 2,5-dicarboxybenzene-1,4-dicarboxylate coordinating in a bis(monodentate) fashion, which is similar to the coordination mode reported by Xia et al. (2007). The centrosymmetric bridging 2,5-dicarboxybenzene-1,4-dicarboxylate ligands link the binuclear units into a one-dimensional polymeric chain (Fig. 2). Interestingly, the coordinating O atom is provided by the undeprotonated carboxylic group rather than the deprotonated one. The O2—H group in the undeprotonated carboxylic group forms a strong intramolecular hydrogen bond with the adjacent carboxylate group [O2···O4: 2.399 (3) Å]. This contact allows planarity for the bridging ligand, which may be related to the non-coordinating character of carboxylate functionalities. The uncoordinated carboxylate group also provides another O atom for the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds [N3···O3: 2.742 (3) Å], forming a three-dimensional framework (Fig. 3). Despite of the presence of aromatic rings, no apparent π···π stacking interactions are found in the crystal structure.

Experimental top

A solution of Ag2O (0.07 g, 0.30 mmol), 2-(3-pyridyl)-1H-benzimidazole (Alcalde et al., 1992) (0.14 g, 0.61 mmol), 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid (0.066 g, 0.30 mmol) and H2O (15 ml) was stirred under ambient conditions. The solution was sealed in a 25 ml Teflon-lined stainless steel vessel, heated at 413 K for 4 days and cooled to room temperature for 3 days. The resulting product was recovered by filtration, washed with distilled water and dried in air (65% yield).

Refinement top

Anisotropic thermal parameters were applied to all non-hydrogen atoms. The carboxylic acid H atom H2B was initially located in a difference map, and then refined with a restrained O—H bond length of 0.83 (1) Å. Other H atoms were fixed geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93 Å, N—H = 0.86 Å, and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(carrier atom).
