In the title coordination polymer, [Zn2(C14H8N2O4)2(C12H10N2)]n, the asymmetric unit contains one ZnII cation, two halves of 2,2′-(diazene-1,2-diyl)dibenzoate anions (denoted L2−) and half of a 1,2-bis­(pyridin-4-yl)ethene ligand (denoted bpe). The three ligands lie across crystallographic inversion centres. Each ZnII centre is four-coordinated by three O atoms of bridging carboxyl­ate groups from three L2− ligands and by one N atom from a bpe ligand, forming a tetra­hedral coordination geometry. Two ZnII atoms are bridged by two carboxyl­ate groups of L2− ligands, generating a [Zn2(CO2)2] ring. Each loop serves as a fourfold node, which links its four equivalent nodes via the sharing of four L2− ligands to form a two-dimensional [Zn2L4]n net. These nets are separated by bpe ligands acting as spacers, producing a three-dimensional framework with a 4664 topology. Powder X-ray diffraction and solid-state photoluminescence were also measured.

Introduction top

The design and synthesis of coordination polymers with novel structures have attracted much inter­est in recent years because of their intriguing coordination architectures and potential applications in various fields, including catalysis and photochemistry, and their fluorescence and biological properties (Song et al., 2010; Liu et al., 2011; Cui et al., 2012; Allendorf et al., 2009; Lee et al., 2009). Previously, coordination polymers were usually constructed by metal ions and one type of O- or N-containing ligands. However, the number of such coordination polymers is limited since the types of ligand are limited. So, to construct novel coordination polymers, many chemists usually choose carboxyl­ate-containing ligands with varied coordination modes as the main connectors, and mixed ligands with N-donor groups as ancillary bridges (Batten & Robson, 1998). The use of the 1,2-bis­(pyridin-4-yl)ethene (Bpe) ligand is an effective method of forming meaningful coordination frameworks because it can satisfy and even mediate the coordination needs of the metal centres [Reference needed?].

The flexible di­carboxyl­ate ligand 2,2'-(diazene-1,2-diyl)di­benzoic acid (H2L) has recently been synthesized and reacted with metal salts (ZnII, CdII and PbII), which results in the formation of three-dimensional coordination polymers (Liu, Yu, Sun et al., 2014; Liu, Yu, Zhou et al., 2014 or Liu, Zhou et al., 2014 ?). The H2L ligand shows a variety of coordination modes and conformations due to the increased flexibility and length of the diazenediyl groups, thus making it easier to form various inter­esting coordination polymers. Moreover, in our previous work, we have synthesized three extended CdII coordination frameworks based on H2L and auxiliary 4,4'-bi­pyridine (bpy), 1,2-bis­(pyridin-4-yl)ethene (bpe) and 1,3-bis­(pyridin-4-yl)propane (bpp) N-donor ligands (Liu, Yu, Sun et al., 2014; Liu, Yu, Zhou et al., 2014 or Liu, Zhou et al., 2014 ?). To further understand the coordination chemistry of flexible di­carboxyl­ate and di­pyridyl ligands, we employed H2L and bpe as organic ligands in a reaction with ZnII ions under solvothermal conditions and obtained the title three-dimensional framework, [Zn24-L)(µ2-L)(bpe)]n, (I). The photoluminescence properties of (I) in the solid state were also investigated.

Experimental top

Synthesis and crystallization top

H2L was prepared according to the literature method of Reid & Pritchett (1953). All other chemicals and reagents were obtained from commercial sources (Alfa Aesar) and used as received. A 10 ml Pyrex glass tube was loaded with Zn(OAc)2.2H2O (11 mg, 0.05 mmol), H2L (7 mg, 0.025 mmol), bpe (5 mg, 0.025 mmol), 0.020 M NaOH (0.1 ml) and MeOH–H2O (1:1 v/v, 4 ml), forming a red solution. The tube was then sealed and heated in an oven to 393 K for 4 d, and then cooled to ambient temperature at a rate of 5 K h-1. Pink blocks of (I) were collected and washed thoroughly with H2O and dried in air (yield 5 mg, 57% based on H2L). Spectroscopic analysis: IR (KBr disc, ν, cm-1): 3446 (m), 2989 (w), 1604 (s), 1597 (s), 1404 (s), 1221 (w), 1152 (w), 1098 (m), 1032 (w), 962 (m), 864 (m), 782 (m), 772 (m), 735 (m), 664 (m), 526 (w), 460 (w).

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 1. All H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions, with C—H = 0.93 Å for phenyl and pyridine groups, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Results and discussion top

Polymer (I) crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1, and its asymmetric unit contains half of a [Zn24-L)(µ2-L)(bpe)] unit. As shown in Fig. 1, each ZnII centre is tetra­hedrally coordinated by three carboxyl­ate O atoms from three L2- ligands and one N atom from one bpe ligand. A weak inter­action [2.5002 (4) Å] exists between atoms Zn1 and O3 (Fig. 1). Selected bond lengths and angles for (I) are listed in Table 2.

In the structure of (I), atom Zn1 and its symmetry-related Zn1v counterpart [symmetry code: (v) -x + 1, -y + 1, -z + 1] are bridged by two carboxyl­ate groups (µ2-η1:η1) from two L2- ligands to generate a macrocyclic [Zn2(CO2)2] loop with a Zn···Zn distance of 4.122 (2) Å (Fig. 2). Each macrocyclic loop serves as a fourfold node, which links its four equivalent nodes via the sharing of four L2- ligands to form a two-dimensional (4,4) network extending in the ac plane (Fig. 3). The carboxyl­ate groups ligate the ZnII centres in two different fashions, in µ1-η1:η0 and µ2-η1:η1 coordination modes. Furthermore, the bpe ligands are employed as pillars to hold the two-dimensional network, thus affording a three-dimensional framework looking down the [100] direction (Fig. 4). The structure is also stabilized by hydrogen-bonding inter­actions (Table 3). Topologically (Wells, 1997), if the ZnII centres are considered as nodes and the L2- and bpe ligands are considered as linkers, the overall structure of (I) can be specified by the Schläfli symbol 4664 (Fig. 5).

As reported previously (Liu, Yu, Sun et al., 2014; Liu, Yu, Zhou et al., 2014 or Liu, Zhou et al., 2014 ?), a CdII coordination polymer assembled from H2L and bpe has been investigated, viz. [Cd(L)(bpe)]n, (II), and it shows a two-dimensional layer. In (I), each ZnII centre is four-coordinated by three O atoms and one N atom, forming a tetra­hedron, while in (II) each CdII centre is six-coordinated by four O atoms and two N atoms, generating a distorted o­cta­hedron. This difference is possibly due to the fact that the ionic radius of CdII is larger than that of ZnII [Values and reference?]. Moreover, the carboxyl­ate groups of the L2- ligands in (I) only adopt a bridging coordination mode and link two ZnII centres, producing a dinuclear Zn2 unit, and these are further bridged by L2- ligands, resulting in the two-dimensional [Zn2L4]n network. In (II), the mononuclear CdII centres are bridged by L2- ligands through carboxyl­ate groups (in bridging and chelating coordination modes), generating a one-dimensional [CdL]n chain. Furthermore, the bpe ligands in (I) are employed as pillars to hold the two-dimensional networks, thus affording a three-dimensional framework with one-dimensional channels. The bpe ligands in (II) are utilized as linkers to bridge the one-dimensional chains, producing a two-dimensional layer. From these comparisons, it is noted that the different species of metal centre greatly affects the coordination modes of the carboxyl­ate groups, the formation of metal-containing units and the whole structures of these compounds.

Compound (I) was also characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) at room temperature. The PXRD pattern of (I) is coincident with the simulated pattern derived from the single-crystal X-ray data (Fig. 6), which implies that the structure of the bulk sample is the same as that of the single crystal.

Finally, the photoluminescence properties of (I) in the solid state at room temperature were studied (Fig. 7). H2L did not show any photoluminescence properties, while excitation of (I) at 349 nm resulted in a strong emission band at 467 nm. This may be ascribed to ligand chelation to the ZnII centre, which effectively increases the rigidity of the molecule and reduces the loss of energy by radiationless decay.

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.
