Abstract top

In the title complex, [Gd2(C9H4N2O4)2(C9H5N2O4)2(H2O)2]n, two of the benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylate ligands are protonated at the imidazole groups. Each GdIII ion is coordinated by six O atoms and one N atom from five ligands and one water molecule, displaying a distorted bicapped trigonal-prismatic geometry. The GdIII ions are linked by the carboxylate groups and imidazole N atoms, forming a layer parallel to (001). These layers are further connected by O-H...O and N-H...O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional supramolecular network.

Comment top

In recent years, research on coordination polymers has made considerable progress in the fields of supramolecular chemistry and crystal engineering, because of their intriguing structural motifs and functional properties, such as molecular adsorption, magnetism and luminescence. In general, the structural motifs of these hybrid compounds are closely related to the geometries of metal centers and the number of coordination sites provided by multidentate ligands. On the other hand, the supramolecular interactions such as hydrogen-bonding, ππ stacking and metallophilic interactions also play the key roles in the recognition process forming final three-dimensional architectures. As a building block, benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylic acid is a good ligand with multifunctional coordination sites providing intriguing architectures and topologies (Gao et al., 2008; Lo et al., 2007; Wei et al., 2008; Yao et al., 2008). Recently, we obtained the title coordination polymer, which was synthesized under hydrothermal conditions.

In the title compound (Fig. 1), two of the benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylate ligands are protonated at the imidazole groups. Each GdIII ion is eight-coordinated by six O atoms one N atom from five ligands and one water molecule. The coordination geometry can be described as distorted bicapped trigonal prismatic, with Gd—O distances and O—Gd—O angles ranging from 2.267 (2) to 2.539 (2) Å (Table 1) and 52.14 (7) to 156.82 (8)°, respectively. The benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylate ligands acting as bridging ligands link the GdIII centers into a layer parallel to the (0 0 1) plane. O—H···O and N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 2) connect the layers into a three-dimensional supramolecular motif (Fig. 2). Within the layer, the ππ stacking interactions between neighboring imidazole and benzene rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.629 (3), 3.755 (4), 3.656 (3) and 3.606 (3) Å] enhance the stability of the crystal structure.

Experimental top

A mixture of Gd2O3 (0.363 g, 1 mmol), benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylic acid (0.206 g, 1 mmol), water (10 ml) in the presence of HClO4 (0.039 g, 0.385 mmol) was stirred vigorously for 30 min and then sealed in a Teflon-lined stainless-steel autoclave (20 ml capacity). The autoclave was heated and maintained at 433 K for 3 d, and then cooled to room temperature at 5 K h-1. The colorless block crystals were obtained.

Refinement top

Water H atoms were tentatively located in difference Fourier maps and fixed in refinements, with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O). One of the H atoms of O2W is disordered over two sites (O4WA and O4WB), each with an occupancy factor of 0.5. H atoms on N atoms were tentatively located in difference Fourier maps and refined with distance restraints of N—H = 0.82 (1) Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N). H atoms attached to C atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding, with C—H = 0.93 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).
