Two new one-dimensional CuIIcoordination polymers (CPs) containing theC2h-symmetric terphenyl-based dicarboxylate linker 1,1′:4′,1′′-terphenyl-3,3′-dicarboxylate (3,3′-TPDC), namelycatena-poly[[bis(dimethylamine-κN)copper(II)]-μ-1,1′:4′,1′′-terphenyl-3,3′-dicarboxylato-κ4O,O′:O′′:O′′′] monohydrate], {[Cu(C20H12O4)(C2H7N)2]·H2O}n, (I), andcatena-poly[[aquabis(dimethylamine-κN)copper(II)]-μ-1,1′:4′,1′′-terphenyl-3,3′-dicarboxylato-κ2O3:O3′] monohydrate], {[Cu(C20H12O4)(C2H7N)2(H2O)]·H2O}n, (II), were both obtained from two different methods of preparation: one reaction was performed in the presence of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) as a potential pillar ligand and the other was carried out in the absence of the DABCO pillar. Both reactions afforded crystals of different colours,i.e.violet plates for (I) and blue needles for (II), both of which were analysed by X-ray crystallography. The 3,3′-TPDC bridging ligands coordinate the CuIIions in asymmetric chelating modes in (I) and in monodenate binding modes in (II), forming one-dimensional chains in each case. Both coordination polymers contain two coordinated dimethylamine ligands in mutuallytranspositions, and there is an additional aqua ligand in (II). The solvent water molecules are involved in hydrogen bonds between the one-dimensional coordination polymer chains, forming a two-dimensional network in (I) and a three-dimensional network in (II).

The geoid and its horizontal derivatives, the deflections of the vertical, play an important role in the adjustment of geodetic networks. In the one-dimensional (1D) case, represented typically by networks of orthometric heights, the geoid provides the reference surface for the measurements. In the two-dimensional (2D) adjustment of horizontal control networks, the geoidal undulations N and deflections of the vertical ξ, η are needed for the reduction of the measured quantities onto the reference ellipsoid. In the three-dimensional (3D) adjustment, N and ξ, η are basically required to relate geodetic and astronomic quantities. The paper presents the major gravimetric methods currently used for predicting ξ, η and N, and briefly intercompares them in terms of accuracy, efficiency, and data required. The effects of N, ξ, η on various quantities used in the ID, 2D, and 3D network adjustments are described explicitly for each case and formulas are given for the errors introduced by either neglecting or using erroneous N, ξ, η in the computational procedures.

Coordination polymers (CPs) built by coordination bonds between metal ions/clusters and multidentate organic ligands exhibit fascinating structural topologies and potential applications as functional solid materials. The title coordination polymer, poly[diaquabis(μ4-biphenyl-3,4′,5-tricarboxylato-κ4O3:O3′:O4′:O5)tris[μ2-1,4-bis(1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzene-κ2N3:N3′]dicopper(II)dicopper(I)], [CuII2CuI2(C15H7O6)2(C12H10N4)3(H2O)2]n, was crystallized from a mixture of biphenyl-3,4′,5-tricarboxylic acid (H3bpt), 1,4-bis(1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzene (1,4-bib) and copper(II) chloride in a water–CH3CN mixture under solvothermal reaction conditions. The asymmetric unit consists of two crystallographically independent Cu atoms, one of which is CuII, while the other has been reduced to the CuIion. The CuIIcentre is pentacoordinated by three O atoms from three bpt3−ligands, one N atom from a 1,4-bib ligand and one O atom from a coordinated water molecule, and the coordination geometry can be described as distorted trigonal bipyramidal. The CuIatom exhibits a T-shaped geometry (CuN2O) coordinated by one O atom from a bpt3−ligand and two N atoms from two 1,4-bib ligands. The CuIIatoms are extended by bpt3−and 1,4-bib linkers to generate a two-dimensional network, while the CuIatoms are linked by 1,4-bib ligands, forming one-dimensional chains along the [20\overline{1}] direction. In addition, the completely deprotonated μ4-η1:η1:η1:η1bpt3−ligands bridge one CuIand three CuIIcations along thea(or [100]) direction to form a three-dimensional framework with a (103)2(10)2(42.6.102.12)2(42.6.82.10)2(8) topologyviaa 2,2,3,4,4-connected net. An investigation of the magnetic properties indicated a very weak ferromagnetic behaviour.

In the title chromone-tethered benzohydrazide derivative, C18H14N2O3, the 4H-chromen-4-one and the –CH=N–NH–CO– units are each essentially planar, with the largest deviations from thei planes being 0.052 (2) and 0.003 (2) Å, respectively. The dihedral angles between the 4H-chromen-4-one and the –CH=N–NH–CO– units, the 4H-chromen-4-one unit and the benzene ring of the 4-tolyl group, and the benzene ring of the 4-tolyl group and the –CH=N–NH–CO– unit are 8.09 (7), 9.94 (5) and 17.97 (8)°, respectively. In the crystal, the molecules form two types of centrosymmetric dimers: one by N—H...O hydrogen bonds and the other by π–π stacking interactions between the 4H-chromen-4-one unit and the 4-tolyl group [centroid–centroid distance = 3.641 (5) Å]. These dimers form one-dimensional assemblies extending along thea-axis direction. Additional π–π stacking interactions between two 4H-chromen-4-one units [centroid–centroid distance = 3.591 (5) Å] and two 4-tolyl groups [centroid–centroid distance = 3.792 (5) Å] organize the molecules into a three-dimensional network.

4-Hydroxypyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (chelidamic acid, hypydc[H]H2) reacts with MnCl2·2H2O in the presence of piperazine in water to afford the title complex, {[Mn3(C7H2NO5)2(H2O)8]·3H2O}nor {[Mn3(hypydc)2(H2O)8]·3H2O}n. This compound is a one-dimensional coordination polymer, with the twofold symmetric repeat unit containing three metal centres. Two different coordination geometries are observed for the two independent MnIImetal centres,viz.a distorted pentagonal bipyramid and a distorted octahedron. The 4-oxidopyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate anions and two of the water molecules act as bridging ligands. The zigzag-like geometry of the coordination polymer is stabilized by hydrogen bonds. O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds and water clusters consolidate the three-dimensional network structure.

The nano-sized quasi-one dimensional hollow cores of carbon nanotubes make it possible for them to be filled with and wetted by foreign materials. With C, S and Se atoms as example, we have studied the filling and wetting of these atoms into carbon nanotubes from local density functional theory in first principles calculations. The results suggest that the effect of nanotube length is negligible when it exceeds 3.6 Å, there is a relation between nanotube diameter and filling and wetting. Our studies would be important implications for the further use of carbon nanotubes.
