Abstract

In the title coordinaltion polymer, [Cd(C8H4O4)(C8H7N3)2]n, the CdII atom, lying on a twofold rotation axis, is six-coordinated by two carboxyl­ate O atoms from two benzene-1,3-dicarboxyl­ate (m-BDC) ligands and four N atoms from two chelating 2-(2-pyrid­yl)imidazole mol­ecules, forming a slightly distorted octa­hedral geometry. The m-BDC ligand is located over a twofold rotation axis. The CdII atoms are bridged by the m-BDC ligands, leading to a wave-shaped chain structure along [010]. N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect the chains.

Comment

Currently, the design and synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are of great interest owing to their intriguing variety of architectures and their tremendous potential applications in many fields (Chen et al., 2009; Rosi et al., 2003; Su et al., 2004; Xiao et al., 2006). As a multidentate ligand, benzene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (m-H2BDC) has two carboxyl groups and, therefore, has been widely reported as a good candidate not only in the construction of various coordination polymers but also in the construction of MOFs with multi-dimension (Banerjee et al., 2008; Che et al., 2009; Clegg & Russo, 2009; Li et al., 2008; Su et al., 2009; Zhao, 2008).

In the title coordinaltion polymer (Fig. 1), the central CdII ion is six-coordinated by two carboxylate O atoms from two m-BDC ligands and four N atoms from two 2-(2-pyridyl)imidazole (2-PyIM) molecules (Table 1), forming a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. The CdII ions are bridged by the m-BDC ligands, leading to a wave-shaped chain structure, as shown in Fig. 2. N—H···O hydrogen bonds connect the chains (Table 2).

Experimental

All chemicals were purchased from commercial sources and used without further purification. CdSO4.8H2O (0.033 mmol), m-H2BDC (0.1 mmol) and 2-PyIM (0.2 mmol) were dissolved in 15 ml of water. The mixture was stirred for 2 h at room temperature and then heated in a 30 ml Teflon-lined stainless steel autoclave for 3 d at 323 K. After the autoclave was cooled to room temperature, colorless block crystals were harvested.

Refinement

C-bound H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). The H atom on imidazole N2 was located from a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically.
