Description
Summary:The hydrothermal reaction of copper(II) acetate and 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (btcH 3 ) leads to the formation of a coordination polymer, [Cu(btcH)(H 2 0) 3 ] n ( 1 ). The product was characterized by elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy. Nanoparticles of coordination polymer ( 1 ) have been synthesized by a sonochemical process and characterized. Powder XRD and IR spectra of the compound 1 both its bulk and nano-size indicate acceptable matches for the structure. Thermal decomposition of the nano-size [Cu(btcH)(H 2 0) 3 ] n as a precursor leads to the formation of CuO nanoparticles. Characterization of the CuO nanoparticles was carried out using IR spectroscopy, powder XRD and scanning electron microscopy. This study demonstrates that the coordination polymers may be suitable precursors for the preparation of nanoscale materials.
