RÉSUMÉ
A novel bilayer metal-organic framework is assembled with a perfect intralayer triangular subnet and ideal interlayer Td arrangement between unprecedented crown-like Co7 cluster units, exhibiting high spin frustration.
RÉSUMÉ
One interesting pentanuclear zinc coordination polymer, [Zn(5)(OH)(2)(DTBA)(4)](n) (1) (DTBA=2,2'-dithiobisbenzoic acid) has been synthesized by hydrothermal method, and characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction, elemental analyses, IR and TGA. The pentanuclear zinc unit exhibits pentagon configuration, which acts as secondary building unit to construct a one-dimensional chain structure by DTBA ligands. As far as we know, this kind of pentagon zinc unit is unprecedented. In addition, upon the excitation at 390 nm, the blue-fluorescence at 448 nm of the compound 1 was observed.
