Investigation of the crystal structure and electrochemical properties of catena-poly[[chlorido(piperazin-1-ium–κN))cadmium(II)]-di-μ-chlorido]monohydrate

Abstract

A novel Cd(II) coordination polymer [Cd(C 4 H 11 N 2 )(l-Cl) 2 Cl] n ÁnH 2 O with a supramolecular structure has been synthesized by reaction of CdCl 2 2Á5H 2 O with piperazine. The compound was investigated by X-ray diffraction, electrochemistry, and IR spectroscopy. The CdCl 3 (C 4 H 11 N 2 )ÁH 2 O entity in the compound forms a 1D coordination polymer as a result of the bridging function of the chlorine atoms Cd-Cl 2 -Cd. Adjacent 1D coordination polymers are connected by (O,N,C)-H…Cl, (O,N)-H…Cl, and N-H…O hydrogen bonds, generating a three-dimensional supramolecular network. With this atomic arrangement, the complex can form an electroactive film on a platinum electrode by anodic oxidation in acetonitrile solution.

Solvent influence on the crystal structures of new cadmium tri-tert-butoxysilanethiolate complexes with 1,4-bis(3-aminopropyl)piperazine: luminescence and antifungal activity

“…Unlike complex 1, these emission bands are blue-shifted relative to the bands observed for the BAPP ligand. Broadband blue emission has been successfully realized in [pipH] (Mabrouk et al, 2015). According to an earlier report, the free piperazine ligand has an emission band at 418 nm on excitation at 312 nm (Bie et al, 2005).…”
