Syntheses, structural diversity and dye adsorption properties of various Co(II) coordination polymers based on rigid tris(imidazolyl) and dicarboxylate ligands

Crystal structure of poly[bis(μ3-(1-(3,5-di(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl)-1H-imidazole-κ3N:N′:N′′)cobalt(II)] dinitrate — N,N-dimethylformamide (1/4), C42H52N18O10Co

“…These above mentioned bond distances and angles are all in their normal ranges. They can be compared with those previously reported compounds [9][10][11]. The Co(II) ions are linked by 1-(3,5-di(1H-imidazol-1-yl) phenyl)-1H-imidazol ligands to form a (3,6)-connected threedimensional framework, with DMF molecules and nitrate ions locating in the channels to balance the charge and stabilize the whole structure.…”
