Hole‐Size Relationships in the Assembly of a Furandicarboxylate‐Based Metallolinker in Praseodymium Coordination Polymers Synthesized under Basic Conditions

Abstract

Two new coordination polymers have been synthesized with 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid upon base modification. The resulting structures are dependent on the base added. When KOH was used as base, potassium was incorporated into the two-dimensional coordination polymer, acting as a metallolinker to give [Pr 2 K 2 (OH) 2 (C 6 H 2 O 5 ) 3 (H 2 O) 3 ]·H 2 O (1). Synthesis with other alkali hydroxides produced a three-dimensional [a]

From Isolated Molecular Complexes to Extended Networks: Synthesis and Characterization of Thorium Furanmono‐ and Dicarboxylates

“…The decreased flexibility of 2,5FDC as compared to DOTA makes the isolation of the molecular dimer in Th‐3 particularly interesting. A related furandicarboxylate bridged dimeric unit was isolated for praseodymium and the stabilization of the structural unit was attributed to a number of different factors including coordination to a central potassium ion . While this is not observed for Th‐4 , this is perhaps corollary to the weak hydrogen bonding interactions between one bound water molecule and the oxygen of the furan ring.…”

“…The original version of this article was published with incorrect formulae for the two title compounds . The correct formula for compound 1 is [Pr 2 K(OH)(H 2 O) 5 (C 6 H 2 O 5 ) 3 ] · H 2 O, and that for compound 2 is [Pr 8 (C 6 H 2 O 5 ) 8 (OH) 8 (H 2 O) 15 ] · 3H 2 O.…”
