(Received 17 August 2012; accepted 11 September 2012; online 19 September 2012)

The crystal structure of the polymeric title complex, [Zn(C14H8O4)]n, is composed of layers parallel to (110) formed by linking of Zn–carboxyl­ate chains with biphenyl units of the biphenyl-2,4′-dicarboxyl­ate (bpdc) ligands. The ZnII atom is five-coordinated in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry by five O atoms from four bpdc ligands. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 52.32 (12)°.

Comment top

In recent years, the design and synthesis of metal-oganic frameworks (MOFs) are of great interest in the view of their fascinating structural diversity and significance of discovering new materials in the field of catalysis, gas storage, fluorescence, magnetism and so on. However, how to choose the metal centers and multidentate ligands is still a challedge. Biphenyl-2,4'-dicarboxylic acid (H2bpdc) can be utilized as a multifunctional bridging ligand because it can bridge metal centers to form chains, layers or three-dimensional networks. The rotation of the C—C single bond between the two phenyl rings gives rise to a skew coordination orientation of the carboxylate groups, which is favorable for the formation of various new complexes with intriguing architectures and topologies (Guo et al., 2010; Jia et al., 2011; Zhang et al., 2011). Recently, we synthesized the title coordination polymer under hydrothermal conditions.

In the title compound (Fig. 1), the bpdc ligand is fully deprotonated. The ZnII atom is five-coordinated by five O atoms from four different bpdc ligands in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry, with Zn—O distances and O—Zn—O angles ranging from 1.937 (2) to 2.204 (2) Å (Table 1) and 92.02 (11) to 108.20 (13)°, respectively. Adjacent ZnII atoms are bridged by a bidentate carboxylate group and a tridentate carboxylate group, which come from two different bpdc ligands, forming a Zn-carboxylate chain. These chains are further linked by the bpdc ligands into a layer structure (Fig. 2).

Experimental top

A mixture of ZnCl2 (0.068 g, 0.5 mmol), biphenyl-2,4'-dicarboxylic acid (0.121 g, 0.5 mmol) and water (8 ml) in the presence of CH3COOH (2 ml) was stirred vigorously for 30 min and then sealed in a 20 ml Teflon-lined stainless-steel autoclave. The autoclave was heated and maintained at 393 K for 3 days, and then cooled to room temperature at 5 K h-1 to yield colorless block crystals.

H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.93 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

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.
