Three luminescent silver(I)-oligo(phenylenevinylene) complexes, [Ag2(bmsb)(ClO4)2] (1), [Ag2(bmsb)(H2O)4](BF4)2 (2), and [Ag2(bdb)(CF3SO3)2] (3) (bmsb = 1, 4-bis(methylstyryl)benzene, bdb = 4,4'-bis(2, 5-dimethylstryryl)biphenyl), have been synthesized and structurally characterized. Complexes 1 and 2 are 2D networks with unique metallocyclophane motifs. Complex 3 affords a 2D zigzag sheet, in which silver triflates form tubelike double chains and bdb molecules act as linkages. Complex 2 exhibits high electric conductivity because of columnar aromatic stackings formed through intra- and intermolecular pi-pi interactions. Complexes 1-3 in the solid state exhibit luminescence, of which excitation and emission maxima are shifted to longer wavelength as compared to those of the corresponding metal-free ligands.
Despite recent advances in the carbonization of organic crystalline solids like metal-organic frameworks or supramolecular frameworks, it has been challenging to convert crystalline organic solids into ordered carbonaceous frameworks. Herein, we report a route to attaining such ordered frameworks via the carbonization of an organic crystal of a Ni-containing cyclic porphyrin dimer (Ni2-CPDPy). This dimer comprises two Ni–porphyrins linked by two butadiyne (diacetylene) moieties through phenyl groups. The Ni2-CPDPy crystal is thermally converted into a crystalline covalent-organic framework at 581 K and is further converted into ordered carbonaceous frameworks equipped with electrical conductivity by subsequent carbonization at 873–1073 K. In addition, the porphyrin’s Ni–N4 unit is also well retained and embedded in the final framework. The resulting ordered carbonaceous frameworks exhibit an intermediate structure, between organic-based frameworks and carbon materials, with advantageous electrocatalysis. This principle enables the chemical molecular-level structural design of three-dimensional carbonaceous frameworks.
Three novel silver(I) complexes with benzopyrene derivatives were synthesized and characterized in this paper. Treatment of AgClO(4)*H(2)O with 7-methylbenzo[a]pyrene (L(1)) afforded [Ag(2)(L(1))(toluene)(0.5)(ClO(4))(2)](n)() (1) which exhibits a 2-D sheet structure with double-stranded helical motifs. Reaction of AgCF(3)SO(3) with dibenzo[b,def ]chrysene (L(2)) gave rise to an unprecedented cocrystallization structure, ([Ag(2)(L(2))(CF(3)SO(3))(2)][Ag(2)(toluene)(2)(CF(3)SO(3))(2)])(n)() (2), formed by a 2-D neutral lamellar polymer and a 1-D neutral rodlike one. The ligand benzo[e]pyrene (L(3)) coordinated to silver(I) ions generating a closed triple-decker tetranuclear complex [Ag(4)(L(3))(4)(p-xylene)(ClO(4))(4)] (3) which can be regarded as a stacking polymer owing to existing intermolecular pi-pi stack interactions. The structural diversity of the silver(I) coordination polymers with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is not only related to the stacking patterns of free polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the crystalline state, but also the geometric shapes of the molecules for these free ligands. In addition, the coordination of solvents to metal ions plays a crucial role in the formation of the unprecedented coordination polymeric architectures. The ESR spectroscopic results, conductivity, and synthesis properties are also discussed.
4. There are many detail mistakes in the article, the author should check them carefully. For example, 'In Fig. 3a, mFeP shows an exothermic peak at 305 °C, corresponding to thermal polymerization of ethynyl groups' should be Fig. 2a, and a lot of problems like that.
