A mixture of Zn(NO3)2.6H2O (29.7 mg, 0.1 mmol), biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid (H2BPDC) (24.2 mg, 0.1 mmol), 1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)butane (BTB) (19.2 mg, 0.1 mmol), and KOH (11.2 mg, 0.2 mmol) in H2O (10 ml) was sealed in a 16 ml Teflon-lined stainless steel container and heated at 180°C for 72 h. After cooling to room temperature, white block crystals of the title compound were collected by filtration and washed with water and ethanol several times (yield 51.3%, based on H2BPDC). Elemental analysis for C22H28ZnN6O8 (Mr = 569.87): C 46.37, H 4.95, N 14.75%; found: 46.46, H 4.98, N 14.79%.
The water H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and fixed in the
with Uiso(H)=1.2Ueq(O). All C-bound H atoms were placed in calculated positions and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.93 (triazole, aromatic) or 0.97 Å(methylene) and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).Interest in crystal engineering and supramolecular chemistry is rapidly increasing not only because of their fascinating structures and topologies but also owing to their potential use in optical, electrical, catalytic and adsorptive applications (Kitagawa et al., 2004; Ferey et al., 2005; Roy et al., 2009; Zhang et al., 2009). The construction of such coordination polymers is highly influenced by several factors. However, the key factor in the manipulating coordination polymers is undoubtedly the selection of appropriate ligands. Comparing to rigid ligands, bifunctional flexible ligands can induce variability of the structure and may lead to the formation of supramolecular isomers because of their conformational flexibility. Recently, a series of transition metal coordination polymers based on the flexible ligand 1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)butane have been reported (Liu et al., 2008; Gu et al., 2008; Wang et al., 2008; Zhu et al., 2009). In this paper, biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid (H2BPDC) and 1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)butane (BTB) have been selected as organic linkers, generating the title new zinc(II) coordination polymer, (I), the
of which is reported herein.Compound (I) crystallizes in the triclinic π interactions (Table 1). The C—H···π interaction is observed between the H3B atom and the centroid of the C6–C11 ring. As shown in Figure 2, interchain O1—H1C···O3, O1—H1D···O3, O2—H2D···O3 bonds between coordinated water molecules and the carboxylate anion are found to assemble the 1-D motifs into a 2-D layer parallel to the bc plane. These layers are further connected by interlayer O2—H2C···O4, C2—H2A···O4 hydrogen bonds, forming a 3-D supramolecular network (Figure 3).
P -1, and the contains half a [Zn(C8H12N6)(H2O)4]2+ cation and half a uncoordinated BPDC anion. Each zinc(II) metal is located on an inversion centre and is six-coordinated in a octahedron geometry by two triazole nitrogen atoms from two different BTB ligand in the axial positions, and four oxygen atom from coordinated water molecules at the equatorial plane (Figure 1). The Zn–N bond length is 2.096 (2) Å, while the Zn–O bond lengths are 2.1234 (18) Å, 2.1693 (19)Å respectively. The BTB ligand adopts a trans–trans-trans conformation and acts as a N,N'-bidentate ligand linking centrosymmetrically-related zinc(II) cations into one-dimensional zig-zag cationic chains parallel to the c axis. The doubly deprotonated BPDC anion, which has crystallographically imposed centre of symmetry, does not coordinate to the zinc(II) centres and only acts as counter-ion. The anionic and cationic parts of (I) interact to form a three-dimensional network through intermolecular interactions such as conventional O—H···O hydrogen bonds, non-conventional C—H···O contacts and C—H···For general background to the structures and applications of supramolecular compounds, see: Kitagawa et al.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Interest in crystal engineering and supramolecular chemistry is rapidly increasing not only because of their fascinating structures and topologies but also owing to their potential use in optical, electrical, catalytic and adsorptive applications (Kitagawa et al., 2004; Ferey et al., 2005; Roy et al., 2009; Zhang et al., 2009). The construction of such coordination polymers is highly influenced by several factors. However, the key factor in the manipulating coordination polymers is undoubtedly the selection of appropriate ligands. Comparing to rigid ligands, bifunctional flexible ligands can induce variability of the structure and may lead to the formation of supramolecular isomers because of their conformational flexibility. Recently, a series of transition metal coordination polymers based on the flexible ligand 1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)butane have been reported (Liu et al., 2008; Gu et al., 2008; Wang et al., 2008; Zhu et al., 2009). In this paper, biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid (H2BPDC) and 1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)butane (BTB) have been selected as organic linkers, generating the title new zinc(II) coordination polymer, (I), the crystal structure of which is reported herein.
Compound (I) crystallizes in the triclinic space group P -1, and the asymmetric unit contains half a [Zn(C8H12N6)(H2O)4]2+ cation and half a uncoordinated BPDC anion. Each zinc(II) metal is located on an inversion centre and is six-coordinated in a octahedron geometry by two triazole nitrogen atoms from two different BTB ligand in the axial positions, and four oxygen atom from coordinated water molecules at the equatorial plane (Figure 1). The Zn–N bond length is 2.096 (2) Å, while the Zn–O bond lengths are 2.1234 (18) Å, 2.1693 (19)Å respectively. The BTB ligand adopts a trans–trans-trans conformation and acts as a N,N'-bidentate ligand linking centrosymmetrically-related zinc(II) cations into one-dimensional zig-zag cationic chains parallel to the c axis. The doubly deprotonated BPDC anion, which has crystallographically imposed centre of symmetry, does not coordinate to the zinc(II) centres and only acts as counter-ion. The anionic and cationic parts of (I) interact to form a three-dimensional network through intermolecular interactions such as conventional O—H···O hydrogen bonds, non-conventional C—H···O contacts and C—H···π interactions (Table 1). The C—H···π interaction is observed between the H3B atom and the centroid of the C6–C11 ring. As shown in Figure 2, interchain O1—H1C···O3, O1—H1D···O3, O2—H2D···O3 bonds between coordinated water molecules and the carboxylate anion are found to assemble the 1-D motifs into a 2-D layer parallel to the bc plane. These layers are further connected by interlayer O2—H2C···O4, C2—H2A···O4 hydrogen bonds, forming a 3-D supramolecular network (Figure 3).
