“…2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-1,3-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propan-2-ol, HFlu] for rationally designing coordination polymers with fascinating structures (such as helix and dia-f net) and properties. [12][13][14][15] In these complexes, HFlu randomly adopts two typical conformations (Scheme 1), namely, anti-gauche (A-G) and anti-anti (A-A). In order to systematically explore the conformational variation of HFlu, six novel Cd(II) coordination polymers, namely {[Cd(HFlu) 2 (H 2 O) 2 ](ClO 4 ) 2 } n (1), {[Cd(HFlu) 3 -(NO 3 )] 2 $(NO 3 ) 2 $H 2 O} n (2), {[Cd(HFlu) 2 (SCN)](ClO 4 )} n (3), {[Cd(HFlu) 2 (SCN)](NO 3 )} n (4), {[Cd(HFlu) 2 Cl](SCN)} n (5) and {[Cd(HFlu) 2 (SCN) 2 ]$2H 2 O} n (6), have been synthesized and structurally characterized.…”
