Copper()-lanthanide() heterometallic metal-organic frameworks constructed from 3-(3-pyridyl)acrylic acid: syntheses, structures, and properties

The first employment of 3-(3-pyridyl)acrylic acid (3-HPYA) in 3d-4f coordination chemistry is reported. Hydrothermal reactions of 3-HPYA with lanthanide oxides and copper halides led to the formation of 17 novel copper( i )-lanthanide( iii ) heterometallic coordination compounds with four structural...

Description
Summary:The first employment of 3-(3-pyridyl)acrylic acid (3-HPYA) in 3d-4f coordination chemistry is reported. Hydrothermal reactions of 3-HPYA with lanthanide oxides and copper halides led to the formation of 17 novel copper( i )-lanthanide( iii ) heterometallic coordination compounds with four structural types, namely, [Ln(3-PYA) 3 Cu 3 Cl 3 (H 2 O) 2 ]·H 2 O [Ln = Dy ( 1 ), Eu ( 2 ), Gd ( 3 ), Tb ( 4 )] (I), [Ln(3-PYA) 3 CuI(H 2 O) 2 ]·0.5H 2 O [Ln = Dy ( 5 ), Gd ( 6 ), Tb ( 7 ), Sm ( 8 )] (II), [Ln(3-PYA) 3 CuBr(H 2 O) 2 ]· x H 2 O [Ln = La ( 9 ), Eu ( 10 ), x = 1; Sm ( 11 ), Nd ( 12 ), x = 0.5] (II), [LnCu 2 (3-PYA) 2 I 2 (ox) 0.5 (H 2 O) 2 ]·(H 2 O) 2 [Ln = Eu ( 13 ), Gd ( 14 ), Nd ( 15 )] (III) and [LnCu 2 (3-PYA) 2 Br 2 (ox) 0.5 (H 2 O)]·(H 2 O) [Ln = Gd ( 16 ), Tb ( 17 )] (IV) (ox = oxalate). These compounds were thoroughly characterized by single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, as well as elemental analyses, FT-IR spectroscopy and thermal studies. All the compounds are constructed from halide-containing copper-inorganic motifs and Ln-containing motifs. Compounds of type I are constructed from 1D zigzag Dy-organic chains with [Cu 6 Cl 6 ] ladder-like clusters, exhibiting a 2D binodal (5, 6)-connected topology. An unusual chemical rearrangement from [Cu 6 Cl 6 ] to [Cu 2 Br 2 ]/[Cu 2 I 2 ] clusters occurs in the formation of type II structures. They are isostructural and exhibit a 3D coordination framework based on dinuclear [Dy 2 O 2 ] subunits and [Cu 2 Br 2 ]/[Cu 2 I 2 ] clusters as nodes, possessing a binodal (4, 6)-connected net. In the type III structure, the Ln-organic motifs propagate along the b -axis, while the Cu-inorganic motifs propagate in the perpendicular direction along the a -axis, both of which are further interconnected to give unique 3D (3, 3, 4, 4, 6)-connected nets with {4 2 ·6}2{4 2 ·8 2 ·10 10 ·12}{4 3 ·6 2 ·8}4{4 3 }2 topologies. The type IV structure, based on structural analysis results, features a non-interpenetrated 3D coordination framework containing 2D Ln-organic layers and Cu 2 Br 2 chains with a new 5-nodal (3, 3, 4, 4, 8)-connected topology net (point symbol: {4 2 ·6}2{4 3 ·6 3 }4{4 3 }2{4 6 ·6 10 ·8 10 ·10 2 }). Our present work represents the first example of heterometallic Cu( i ) halide-Ln( iii )-organic frameworks utilizing 3-HPYA as an organic ligand. The diversity of the products demonstrates that the anion, pH value and reaction temperature have significant effects on the construction of the structures. Mo
