Two new 1-D Cd(II) complexes, {[Cd(imb)(μ2-Cl)Cl]·CH3OH}n (1) and {[Cd(imb)(μ2- Cl)Cl]·DMF}n (2), have been synthesized by the reactions of the unsymmetrical ligand 2-(1Himidazol- 1-yl-methyl)-1H-benzimidazole (imb) with CdCl2·2.5H2O in methanol or methanol=DMF solution at room temperature, and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 displays a ladder-shaped chain in which [Cd2Cl4] units are linked to each other through two bridging imb ligands. Complex 2 features an infinite looped chain structure composed of two kinds of rings, the smaller [Cd2Cl2] ring and the larger [Cd2imb2] ring, connected alternately via their Cd(II) ions. The different architectures of complexes 1 and 2 can be generated by solvent exchange. The IR spectra and fluorescence properties of the complexes have been also investigated.

Two new complexes with the formulae {[Co(bmi)2(bdc)(H2O)]·2H2O}n (1) and {[Cd(bmi)(bdc) (H2O)]·DMF}n (2) (bmi = 1-((benzotriazol-1-yl)methyl)-1H-1,3-imidazole, H2bdc = 1,3-benzenedicarboxylic acid) have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 exhibits a chain structure in which both carboxylate groups of each 1,3-benzenedicarboxylate coordinate to the Co(II) ions in monodentate and chelating modes, and the bmi ligands with a monodentate mode. Complex 2 features a layered structure where both carboxylate groups of each 1,3- benzenedicarboxylate coordinate to the Cd(II) ions in monodentate and chelating modes, but the bmi ligands with a bridging mode. The IR spectra, PXRD patterns, thermogravimetric analyses, and fluorescence properties are also presented.

AbstractTwo new complexes, {[Cd(immb)I2]·DMF}n (1) and {[Cd3(immb)(btc)2]·H2O}n (2) (immb = 2-(1H-imidazol- 1-methyl)-6-methyl-1H-benzimidazole, btc = 1,2,3-benzenetricarboxylate, DMF = dimethyl formamide), have been synthesized and characterized. Single crystal X-ray diffraction shows that 1 exhibits a chain structure constructed by immb ligands bridging Cd(II) ions. In 2, Cd(II) ions are linked by immb ligands with bridging mode and btc3– anions with the μ2-η2:η1 bonding pattern leading to a 2D structure. Luminescent properties have been investigated in the solid state at room temperature.

A new Zn(II) complex [Zn2(bimt)2(Ac)(OH)]n (1) has been synthesized by the reaction of the flexible ligand 2-(benzoimidazol-2-yl-methyl)-1H-tetrazole (Hbimt) with Zn(Ac)2 · 2H2O and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and IR spectra. In complex 1, Zn1 and Zn2 ions are connected by μ2-bridging acetate and hydroxide groups to form a 6-membered ring. The bimt units coordinate to Zn1 and Zn2 ions in a bidentate bridging mode with two nitrogen atoms from the same benzoimidazole ring and connect the 6-membered rings resulting in the formation of a 2D network structure. Adjacent layers are further packed to a threedimensional network through van der Waals bonds. A thermogravimetric analysis was carried out, and the photoluminescent behavior of the complex was investigated.

Two d10 metal coordination polymers with bis-benzimidazole ligands, [(Ag(L1))·NO3·4H2O]n (1) and [Cu2(L2)(CN)2]n (2) [L1 =1,4-bis(benzimidazol-1-yl)butane, L2 =1,4-bis(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazol- 1-yl)butane] have been synthesized hydrothermally and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric (TG) analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 1 features a ribbon-like chain structure bridged by L1 ligands, and is ultimately extended into a 2D supramolecular network through two kinds of π-π stacking interactions. Compound 2 displays a (6,3) wave-like layer in which [Cu6(μ-CN)6(L2)2]n double chains are interconnected by pairs of L2 bridges. The fluorescence properties of the compounds in the solid state at room temperature were investigated.

The organic–inorganic hybrid compound 4-aminopyridinium tetraaquabis(sulfato)iron(III), (C5H7N2)[FeIII(H2O)4(SO4)2] (4apFeS), was obtained by slow evaporation of the solvent at room temperature and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction in the temperature range from 290 to 80 K. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed that the title compound undergoes a sequence of three reversible phase transitions, which has been verified by variable-temperature X-ray diffraction analysis during cooling–heating cycles over the temperature ranges 290–100–290 K. In the room-temperature phase (I), space group C2/c, oxygen atoms from the closest Fe-atom environment (octahedral) were disordered over two equivalent positions around a twofold axis. Two intermediate phases (II), (III) were solved and refined as incommensurately modulated structures, employing the superspace formalism applied to single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Both structures can be described in the (3+1)-dimensional monoclinic X2/c(α,0,γ)0s superspace group (where X is ½, ½, 0, ½) with modulation wavevectors q = (0.2943, 0, 0.5640) and q = (0.3366, 0, 0.5544) for phases (II) and (III), respectively. The completely ordered low-temperature phase (IV) was refined with the twinning model in the triclinic P{\overline 1} space group, revealing the existence of two domains. The dynamics of the disordered anionic substructure in the 4apFeS crystal seems to play an essential role in the phase transition mechanisms. The discrete organic moieties were found to be fully ordered even at room temperature.

Abstract The caesium phosphates Cs3(H1.5PO4)2(H2O)2 and Cs3(H1.5PO4)2 were obtained from aqueous solutions, and Cs4P2O7(H2O)4 and CsPO3 from solid state reactions, respectively. Cs3(H1.5PO4)2, Cs4P2O7(H2O)4, and CsPO3 were fully structurally characterized for the first time on basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data recorded at − 173 °C. Monoclinic Cs3(H1.5PO4)2 (Z = 2, C2/m) represents a new structure type and comprises hydrogen phosphate groups involved in the formation of a strong non-symmetrical hydrogen bond (accompanied by a disordered H atom over a twofold rotation axis) and a very strong symmetric hydrogen bond (with the H atom situated on an inversion centre) with symmetry-related neighbouring anions. Triclinic Cs4P2O7(H2O)4 (Z = 2, P$$\bar{1}$$ 1 ¯ ) crystallizes also in a new structure type and is represented by a diphosphate group with a P–O–P bridging angle of 128.5°. Although H atoms of the water molecules were not modelled, O···O distances point to hydrogen bonds of medium strengths in the crystal structure. CsPO3 is monoclinic (Z = 4, P21/n) and belongs to the family of catena-polyphosphates (MPO3)n with a repetition period of 2. It is isotypic with the room-temperature modification of RbPO3. The crystal structure of Cs3(H1.5PO4)2(H2O)2 was re-evaluated on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data at − 173 °C, revealing that two adjacent hydrogen phosphate anions are connected by a very strong and non-symmetrical hydrogen bond, in contrast to the previously described symmetrical bonding situation derived from room temperature X-ray diffraction data. In the four title crystal structures, coordination numbers of the caesium cations range from 7 to 12. Graphic abstract

The V4+ (spin ½) oxovanadates AV3O7 (A = Ca, Sr) were synthesized and studied by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The room-temperature structures of both compounds are orthorhombic and their respective space groups are Pnma and Pmmn. The previously assumed structure of SrV3O7 has been revised and the temperature dependence of both crystal structures in the temperature ranges 297–100 K and 315–100 K, respectively, is discussed for the first time.
