A 3D mixed-valence Co(III)–Co(II) compound [Co9(bta)10(Hbta)2(H2O)10]n·[22(H2O)]n(1)(H2bta=N,N-bis(1H-tetrazole-5-yl)-amine) was hydrothermally synthesized by reaction of Co(NO3)2·6H2O with H2bta·H2O. Compound 1 consists of three kinds of distorted-octahedral [CoII(N4O2)] paramagnetic nodes which are separated by [CoIII(bta)2(Hbta)]2-/[CoIII(bta)3]3-diamagnetic linkers to generate a 3D porous metal-organic framework(MOF) with alternative ···Co(III)···Co(II)··· array and channels incorporating water molecules. Under an applied magnetic field of 4000 Oe, compound 1 exhibits slow relaxation of magnetization at low temperatures, giving △E/kB=30.00 K and τ0=2.0×10-8 s.
Three new cobalt(Ⅱ) coordination compounds,[Co(3,3'-Hbpt)2(H2pm)(H2O)2]·2H2O(1),[Co(4,4'-Hbpt)(pm)0.5(H2O)]·3H2O (2) and [Co(3,4'-Hbpt)(pm) 0.5 (H2O)3]·2H2O(3)(3,3'-Hbpt=3,5-bis(3-pyridyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole;4,4'-bpt=3,5-bis(4-pyridyl)1H-1,2,4-triazole,3,4'-Hbpt=3-(3-pyridyl)-5-(4'-pyridyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole and H4pm=pyromellitic acid) have been synthesized by hydrothermal reactions.Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that compound 1 has a one-dimensional (1D) chain network,2 exhibits a four-connected three-dimensional (3D) structure with 1D open channels encapsulated by water molecules,while 3 displays a regular two-dimensional (2D) architecture connected through 1D metal helical chains.In addition,the efficacy of compounds 1-3 as additives to promote the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP) is explored by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
Three new heterometallic coordination compounds, namely, [KCu(I3)(L)2(H2O)2]n(1), [KCu(I3)(L)2(H2O)]n(2) and [CuK4(I3)2(L′)4]n(3), were prepared and characterized(HL=5-methylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid, HL′=p-tolylacetic acid). Structural studies revealed that 1 and 2 exhibit 3D frameworks with rectangular channels occupied by triiodide ions. Both compounds can be symbolized as a 5-connected net with pcu topology. In compound 3, a one-dimensional polyhedral chain is connected by hexanuclear mask like clusters [Cu2K4O8]. These chains are further linked each other via rare(1,1,3,3)-triiodide ion-bridging units to generate a 3D(4,5,6)-connected net with the point symbol of {12}2{4·122}4{46}{48·62}4{49·66}4. It is noteworthy that water-induced reversible dissolution/reorganization processes occur between 1/2 and [Cu(L)2(H2O)]n·3nH2O. The thermal and photoluminescence properties of compounds 1, 2, and 3 were investigated as well.
