Tuning the Supramolecular Structure through Variation of the Ligand Geometry and Metal Substituents–Diorganotin Macrocycles and Coordination Polymers Derived from cis- and trans-1,2-, 1,3-, and 1,4-Cyclohexanedicarboxylic and cis,cis-1,3,5-Cyclohexanetricarboxylic Acid

Abstract

cis-and trans-1,2-chdcaH 2 , 1,3-chdcaH 2 , and 1,4-chdcaH 2 (chdcaH 2 = cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid) as well as cis,cis-1,3,5-chtcaH 3 (chtcaH 3 = cyclohexanetricarboxylic acid) have been treated with dimethyl-and di-n-butyltin reagents, and for the case of 1,4-chdcaH 2 additionally with ditert-butyltin dichloride, to determine whether macrocyclic or polymeric diorganotin dicarboxylates are formed dependent of the spatial orientation of the coordinating ligand functions and the organic substituents at the metal atom and to analyze conformational and topological variations in the resulting supramolecular aggregates. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies showed that besides the ligand geometry the substituents at the metal center are key elements for the formation of either monomeric, cyclo-oligomeric, or polymeric assemblies. Two of the compounds characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis exhibited macrocyclic ring structures, [{Me 2 Sn(cise,a-1,4-chdca)} 2 ] and [{nBu 2 Sn(cis-e,a-1,4-chdca)} 4 ]. For most of the remaining compounds, one-dimensional polymeric solidstate structures of composition [{R 2 Sn(1,x-chdca)(H 2 O) y } n ] (R = Me, nBu, tBu; x = 2, 3, 4; y = 0, 1) were observed, which had varying topologies, and for the case of the Me 2 Sn and nBu 2 Sn derivatives were further linked to two-or three-dimensional supramolecular architectures, either through intermolecular Sn•••O or O−H•••O hydrogen-bonding interactions.

“…The observation that the organic substituents at the tin atoms have a strong influence on the self-assembly product of tectons based on organotin compounds is supported also by reports on other tin-ligand systems. [14,19,21,30,49,76,77] 1D polymeric structures similar to 1-3 were observed previously in related systems, [19,21,[78][79][80] but there are also reports on macrocyclic assemblies.

“…[47,48] Moreover, the steric and electronic properties of the tin atoms are easily modified by variation of the organic substituents. [18][19][20][21][28][29][30]49] To explore the influence of the Sn-R groups on self-assembly products, the organotin fragments employed typically carry methyl, n-butyl, or phenyl groups.…”

“…The design and synthesis of supramolecular polymeric networks, especially those constructed by hydrogen bonds and intermolecular weak interactions are a eld of rapid growth due to their special physical properties and potential application in functional materials [1][2][3][4][5]. In the assembly of supramolecular polymeric networks, several factors, such as, organic ligands, metal ions, pH, solvents, temperature are the key factors [6][7][8].…”
