Coordination Polymers Containing Manganese(II)-Azido Layers Connected by Dipyridyl-tetrazine and 4,4′-Azobis(pyridine) Linkers

Two new polynuclear manganese(II) complexes [Mn(dptz)(N(3))(2)](n) (1) and [Mn(azpy)(N(3))(2)](n) (2) (where dptz = dipyridyl-tetrazine and azpy = 4,4'-azobis(pyridine)) have been synthesized by self-assembly of the ligand azide, together with dptz and azpy as secondary spacers. The compounds are characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and variable-temperature magnetic measurements. The structural analyses reveal that in complex 1, which is the first reported Mn(II) complex with the ligand dptz, two μ(1,3) bridging azides connect neighboring manganese ions in a zigzag manner to generate a neutral two-dimensional (2D) sheet which is further connected by the dptz ligands to…

Antiferromagnetic porous metal-organic framework containing mixed-valence [Mn(II)4Mn(III)2(μ4-O)2]10+ units with catecholase activity and selective gas adsorption.

A multifunctional porous metal organic framework based on mixed-valence hexa-nuclear [Mn(III)(2)Mn(II)(4)O(2)(pyz)(2)(C(6)H(5)CH(2)COO)(10)] (pyz = pyrazine) units has been synthesized. The complex has been characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, and variable-temperature magnetic measurements. The structural analysis reveals that the bidentate pyz molecules connect each [Mn(6)] unit to its four [Mn(6)] neighbors through the peripheral Mn(II) centers, giving rise to a three-dimensional (3D) distorted diamond-like porous framework. Variable-temperature (2-300 K) magnetic susceptibility measurements show the presence of dominant antiferr…

Synthesis and characterization of four novel manganese(II) chains formed by 4,4′-azobis(pyridine) and benzoate or nitrobenzoates: Stabilization of unusual ladder structures

Abstract Four new manganese(II) coordination polymers: [Mn(4,4′-azpy)(C6H5COO)2](4,4′-azpy)0.5 (1), [Mn(4,4′-azpy)(p-(NO2)C6H4COO)2] (2), [Mn(4,4′-azpy)(m-(NO2)C6H4COO)2] (3) and [Mn(4,4′-azpy)(o-(NO2)C6H4COO)2(H2O)2] (4), where 4,4′-azpy = 4,4′-azobis(pyridine), have been synthesized by self-assembly of MnX2 (X = benzoate, p-, m-, or o-nitrobenzoates) together with 4,4′-azpy. All four complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectroscopy, thermal analyses, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and variable-temperature magnetic measurements. The structural analyses reveal that complexes 1, 2 and 3 feature a 1D molecular ladder formed by syn–syn (complex 1) or syn–anti (com…
