ABSTRACT
Two multifunctional, ether-bridged tricarboxylic acids, 2-(4-carboxylphenoxy)terephthalic acid (H3cpta) and 2-(3,5-dicarboxylatobenzyloxy)benzoic acid (H3dbba), were used as unexplored and highly versatile building blocks for the hydrothermal generation of a novel series of cadmium(ii) metal-organic architectures. These were formulated as [Cd(µ-Hcpta)(phen)(py)]n (1), {[Cd3(µ5-cpta)2(phen)3]·8H2O}n (2), {[Cd3(µ5-cpta)2(2,2'-bipy)3]·6H2O}n (3), {[Cd(µ3-cpta)(Hbpa)]·2H2O}n (4), {[Cd6(µ4-cpta)2(µ6-cpta)2(H2biim)2(H2O)6]·5H2O}n (5), [Cd3(µ4-cpta)2(µ-prz)(H2O)4]n (6), {[Cd3(µ4-dbba)2(phen)3]·H2O}n (7), and {[Cd3(µ3-dbba)2(2,2'-bipy)3(H2O)3]·2H2O}n (8) on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, FTIR, PXRD, and TGA data. Products 1-8 were assembled in the presence of N-donor crystallization mediators selected from pyridine (py), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), 2,2'-bipyridine (2,2'-bipy), bis(4-pyridyl)amine (bpa), 2,2'-biimidazole (H2biim), or piperazine (prz). The nature of the crystallization mediator and/or the type of principal tricarboxylate building block have a significant effect on the structural diversity, dimensionality, and topology of the resulting cadmium-organic architectures. These span from 1D (1, 8) and 2D (7) coordination polymers to 3D metal-organic frameworks (2-6) with intricate topologies (3,4,5T64 in 2 and 3, utp (103)-d in 4, 3,4,4T9 in 6) that also include unprecedented types in 5 and 7. Besides, MOF 6 features a 3D + 3D two-fold interpenetrated framework. Luminescent and photocatalytic properties of selected materials were investigated, showing that coordination polymer 7 is a promising photocatalyst for the UV-light-driven degradation of methylene blue as a model organic dye pollutant. Moreover, products 7 and 8 are the first examples of structurally characterized coordination compounds derived from H3dbba.
