Abstract: A metal-organic coordination polymer [Zn(Pht)(Medpq)]n (Pht=phthalic acid, Medpq=2-methyldipyrido[3,2-f:2′,3′-h]quinoxaline) (1) has been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectrum, TG and X-ray single-crystal structure analysis. Title complex crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group Cc, with a=1.027 4(4) nm, b=2.955 7(11) nm, c=0.685 2(3) nm, β=112.941°, V=1.916 3(13) nm3, C23H14N4O4Zn, Mr=475.75, Dc=1.649 g·cm-3, μ(Mo Kα)=1.324 mm-1, F(000)=968, Z=4, the final R=0.038 8 and wR=0.071 7 for 2 697 observed reflections (I>2σ(I)). In the crystal structure, the Zinc atom is six-coordinated with four carboxylate oxygen atoms from two different carboxylate groups and two nitrogen atoms from Medpq ligand, showing a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. Furthermore, it exhibits a one-dimensional structure with Pht-Zn-Medpq as building units. CCDC: 716600. |
