Hydrogen- and Covalent-Bond-Linked 3D Manganese Array

Abstract

A new 3D complex [Mn(bpe)(H2O)4]0.5 n (tp)0.5 n (bpe) n [bpe = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane, tp = terephthalate] with long-distance antiferromagnetic interactions clearly shows that hydrogen bonds are useful in increasing molecular dimensionality and the bpe ligand favors crystal packing due to its conformational flexibility.

Tetrametallic macrocyclic frameworks constructed from ferrocenedicarboxylato and 2,2′-bipyridine: synthesis, molecular structures and characteristics

“…Up to date, a large number of complexes containing carboxylate ligands have been prepared and most of them are polymeric [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15].…”

Crystal structure of bisnitrate-bis(1-(4-((1H-imidazol-1yl)methyl)- benzyl)-1H-imidazole)cadmium(II), [Cd(NO3)2(C14H14N4)2]n

“…Over the past two decades, different classes of coordination polymers have been successfully designed and synthesized. Recently, bridging ligands containing No r/and O, for examplemultidentate aromatic polycarboxylate [4][5][6][7][8], have been widely used forsyntheses of coordination polymers of transition metals [9][10]. In the title crystal structure, there are one cadmium ion, two nitrate ions and two 1-(4-((1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)benzyl)-1H-imidazolem olecules per asymmetric unit.…”

Self‐Assembly of Oxamidato‐Chelated ReI‐ and MnI‐Based Flexible Dinuclear Horse‐Stirrup‐Like Metallacycles

“…[7][8][9] In general, flexible bridging ligands favor high-dimensional supramolecular ensembles of low-nuclearity and lower symmetry. [10][11][12][13][14] Nevertheless, flexible tectons hold much promise, as they impart unique properties such as adaptive behavior and breathing ability on the final assemblies. [15][16][17][18][19] Hence, motivation has been provided for the exploitation of flexible linkers in the self-assembly process to render diverse metallacycles.…”
