Hydrothermal reactions of simple alkaline salts or their hydroxides with 3,5-pyrazoledicarboxylic acid (H(3)pdc) yielded seven new compounds. At a lower pH level three one-dimensional structures [Ca(Hpdc)(H(2)O)(4)].2H(2)O (1), [Ca(Hpdc)(H(2)O)(4)].H(2)O (2), and [Ba(H(2)pdc)(2)(H(2)O)(4)].2H(2)O (6) were obtained by evaporation of the solutions resulting from hydro(solvo)thermal reactions of MCl(2) (M = Ca, Ba) with H(3)pdc in water (1, 6) or in water/Et(3)N (2) at 150 degrees C for 3 days. Crystal structures of 1 and 2 contain zigzag chains of metal centers bridged by a single Hpdc(2-) ligand, whereas structure 6 consists of linear chains of metal centers bridged by two H(2)pdc(-) ligands. A dimer molecule [Sr(H(3)pdc)(H(2)pdc)(2)(H(2)O)(3)](2).2(H(3)pdc).4H(2)O (4) was obtained from a similar hydrothermal reaction using Sr(ClO(4))(2).6H(2)O instead of MCl(2). This compound contains [2+2] metallomacrocycles. At higher pH levels (pH = 4-6), the three-dimensional polymers [M(Hpdc)(H(2)O)] (Ca 3, Sr 5, Ba 7 ) were isolated by reactions of MCl(2) (M = Ca, Sr, Ba) with H(3)pdc in water/Et(3)N or in M(OH)(2) (M = Ca, Sr, Ba) with H(3)pdc in water under hydro(solvo)thermal conditions (150 degrees C, 3 days). Calcium and strontium are seven- and nine-coordinated in 3 and 5, respectively; barium is nine- and ten-coordinated in 7. It was observed that the increase in pH resulted in a higher connectivity level of ligands, which in turn leads to a higher dimensionality of the crystal structures. The correlation between the structures and pH values will be discussed.
