5-Sulfosalicylic acid (5-SSA) and 3-aminopyridine (3-APy) crystallize in the same solvent system, resulting in two kinds of 1:1 proton-transfer organic adduct, namely 3-aminopyridinium 3-carboxy-4-hydroxybenzenesulfonate monohydrate, C(5)H(7)N(2)(+).C(7)H(5)O(6)S(-).H(2)O or 3-APy.5-SSA.H(2)O, (I), and the anhydrous adduct, C(5)H(7)N(2)(+).C(7)H(5)O(6)S(-) or 3-APy.5-SSA, (II). Both compounds have extensively hydrogen-bonded three-dimensional layered polymer structures, with interlayer homo- and heterogeneous pi-pi interactions in (I) and (II), respectively.
The development of luminescent metal−organic frameworks for effective sensing and monitoring of environmental pollutants are of great significance for human health and environmental protection. In this work, a novel water-stable...
The two title compounds of 2,2'-biimidazole (Bim) with 5-sulfosalicylic acid (5-H(2)SSA) and 2,2'-bibenzimidazole (Bbim) with 5-H(2)SSA are 1:2 organic salts, viz. C(6)H(8)N(4)(2+).2C(7)H(5)O(6)S(-), (I), and C(14)H(12)N(4)(2+).2C(7)H(5)O(6)S(-).3H(2)O, (II). The cation of compound (I) lies on a centre of inversion, whereas that of (II) lies on a twofold axis. Whilst compound (I) is anhydrous, three water molecules are incorporated into the crystal structure of (II). The substitution of imidazole H atoms by other chemical groups may favour the incorporation of water molecules into the crystal structure. In both compounds, the component cations and anions adopt a homogeneous arrangement, forming alternating cation and anion layers which run parallel to the (001) plane in (I) and to the (100) plane in (II). By a combination of N-H...O, O-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds, the ions in both compounds are linked into three-dimensional networks. In addition, pi-pi interactions are observed between symmetry-related benzene rings of Bbim(2+) cations in (II).
Five new ZnII/CdII coordination polymers (CPs) based on a flexible bis(imidazole) ligand 9,10-bis((2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)anthracene (bmima) with three different aromatic carboxylic acid ligands have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions: {[Cd(bmima)0.5(atp)(H2O)]·DMF·0.5H2O} (CP 1),...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
