Synthesis, Structures and Properties of Two Metal-Organic Coordination Polymers Derived from Manganese(ΙΙ), Thiabendazole and Polydentate Carboxylic Acids

Abstract

Two novel binuclear Mn(II) metal-organic coordination complexes [Mn2(TBZ)2(CDC)(C2O4)]n (1), {[Mn2(TBZ)2(BDC)0.5(BTC)(H2O)2]·ET}n (2), (where TBZ = thiabendazole, H2CDC = trans-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, H2C2O4 = oxalic acid, H3BTC = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid, ET = ethanol, H2BDC = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, electrochemical analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The X-ray structure analysis reveals that 1 is s two-dimensional layer and 2 is s one-dimensional chain. In complex 1, it reveals 2-D layers composed of multi-(bidentate) bridging ligands (CDC and C2O4), and in 2, the coordinated BTC ligands adopt a monodentate mode and with BDC ligands adopt alternately chelating Mn1 and Mn2 bridges into 1-D chains. The 3-D structures of the two complexes are stabilized by π-π stacking interactions and hydrogen bonds.
