Herein, a family of six new silver(I)-based CPs, having the general stoechiometric formula [Ag(H2DMPMB)(X)] (X = NO3, 1; CF3CO2, 2; CF3SO3, 3; BF4, 4; ClO4, 5; and PF6, 6) and incorporating the flexible ditopic pyrazolyl-type ligand 4,40-bis((3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methyl)biphenyl (H2DMPMB), has been prepared by the chemical precipitation method involving the reaction of silver(I) salts with H2DMPMB in the 1:1 molar ratio, in alcohols, or acetonitrile at room temperature for two-hours. The new silver(I)-based polymeric materials were characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), elemental analysis (EA), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), allowing for the proposition that their structures comprise one-dimensional chains, with the silver(I) ions mostly assuming a T-shapped stereochemistry completed by the exo-bidentate ligands and counter-anions. The obtained silver(I) CPs showed a remarkable light insensitivity and stability in the air, are insoluble in water and in most common organic solvents, and possess appreciable thermal stabilities spanning the range 250–350 ◦C. The antibacterial activity of the obtained silver(I) CPs was tested against the Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) using the Tetrazolium/Formazan test (TTC), by measuring the bacterial viability at different time intervals. The complete reduction of both bacterial strains occurred after 24 h of exposure to all silver(I) CPs, the bacterial viability values for S. aureus reaching 8% for compounds 3, 5, and 6 after only two-hours. Keywords: silver; coordination polymers; nitrogen ligands; thermal stability; antibacterial activity 1. Introduction Coordination polymers (CPs) [1–4], and the subset of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) [5–7], represent the vast class of inorganic organic hybrid materials, which are made of metal ions or − metal-based clusters and polydentate ligands connected through coordination bonds, which develop into 1-D, 2-D, and 3-D infinite structures. CPs and MOFs have gained a special place in fields of industrial, technological, economical, and environmental interest thanks to the great variety of functional properties so far achieved, ranging from gas storage and separation [8] to heterogeneous catalysis [9], luminescence [10], sensing [11], magnetism [12], conductivity [13], and biomedicine [14]. For their successful construction, the most typically used organic ligands have been rationally chosen Polymers 2019, 11, 1686; doi:10.3390/polym11101686 www.mdpi.com/journal/polymers Polymers 2019, 11, 1686 2 of 17 Polymers 2019, 11, x FOR PEER REVIEW 2 of 17 frombeen therationally class of poly(carboxylates)chosen from the class [15 ,of16 ],poly( poly(azolates)carboxylates [17) –[1915],,16 pyrazines], poly(azolates) and bipyridines [17–19], [p15yrazines,16,20], andand phosphonatesbipyridines [15,16, [21].20], and phosphonates [21].

  • Porous Coordination Polymers with Ubiquitous and Biocompatible Metals and a Neutral Bridging Ligand
    ARTICLE Received 30 Apr 2014 | Accepted 14 Nov 2014 | Published 16 Jan 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms6851 OPEN Porous coordination polymers with ubiquitous and biocompatible metals and a neutral bridging ligand Shin-ichiro Noro1,2,3,4, Junya Mizutani2, Yuh Hijikata5, Ryotaro Matsuda3,6, Hiroshi Sato6, Susumu Kitagawa6, Kunihisa Sugimoto7, Yasutaka Inubushi8,w, Kazuya Kubo1,2 & Takayoshi Nakamura1,2 The design of inexpensive and less toxic porous coordination polymers (PCPs) that show selective adsorption or high adsorption capacity is a critical issue in research on applicable porous materials. Although use of Group II magnesium(II) and calcium(II) ions as building blocks could provide cheaper materials and lead to enhanced biocompatibility, examples of magnesium(II) and calcium(II) PCPs are extremely limited compared with commonly used transition metal ones, because neutral bridging ligands have not been available for magnesium(II) and calcium(II) ions. Here we report a rationally designed neutral and charge-polarized bridging ligand as a new partner for magnesium(II) and calcium(II) ions. The three-dimensional magnesium(II) and calcium(II) PCPs synthesized using such a neutral ligand are stable and show selective adsorption and separation of carbon dioxide over methane at ambient temperature. This synthetic approach allows the structural diversification of Group II magnesium(II) and calcium(II) PCPs. 1 Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 001-0020, Japan. 2 Graduate School of Environmental Earth Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 060-0810, Japan. 3 PRESTO, Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST), 4-1-8 Honcho, Kawaguchi 332-0012, Japan. 4 Creative Research Institute (CRIS), Hokkaido University, Sapporo 001-0021, Japan.

In 1, both the multi-N donor and O-donor frda − ligands act as linear two-connectors to bridge Cd(II) atoms, forming a two-dimensional (2D) layer. Interestingly, the parallel 2D layers stack in an AAA mode, and the infinite one-dimensional (1D) channels formed along the a-axis ··· direction, where the uncoordinated L molecules were embedded in the void. Furthermore, the weak interactions including the rich hydrogen bonding and π π stacking interactions progress the 2D − structure into a three-dimensional (3D) supramolecular polymer. Diffuse reflectance spectra and the luminescent property were also investigated. Keywords: coordination polymer; characterization; optical property 1. Introduction Coordination polymers (CPs) consisting of organic ligands and metal ions have attracted an upsurge in research during the past decades, due to their charming structures and their possibly applied domain of luminescence [1–4], gas adsorption/separation [5,6], proton conductivity [7], chemical separations [8], catalysis [9], and so on.

Battena, Neil R. Champnessb, Xiao-Ming Chenc, Javier Garcia-Martinezd, Susumu Kitagawae, Lars Öhrströmf*, Michael O’Keeffeg, Myunghyun Paik Suhh and Jan Reedijki,j Coordination Polymers (CP) and Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOF) are among the most prolific research areas of inorganic chemistry and crystal engineering in the last 15 years, and yet it still 5 seems that consensus is lacking about what they really are, or are not. Background Nomenclature and terminology should always create added value. They are tools to incorporate new results into the greater weave of science and enable us to go from the specific to the general. New terminology should also help us to constructively discuss new compounds, 10 materials and phenomena without having to proceed through endless preambles of definitions. When two or more sub-disciplines of science find themselves preparing and analysing similar kinds of new materials, an ad hoc terminology often develops from different viewpoints and may not naturally converge into a self-consistent and logical result. This dual situation occurs for Coordination Polymers (CP)1 and Metal-Organic Frameworks 2 15 (MOF) , compounds generated in interdisciplinary research fields with their origins in solid state, inorganic and coordination chemistry that have expanded rapidly during the last 15 years. The diversity in both focus and scientific basis of the researchers involved has lead to numerous terminology suggestions and practices for this class of compounds and of several subgroups within them;3 additionally, a disquieting number of acronyms are also in use for these materials.

It displays a LOW overpotential of 274 mV at 10 mA/cm2, and low Tafel slope of 37 mV/dec, showing a superior performance to the state-of-the-art RuO2 OER electrcatalyts. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was performed to characterize the morphology and structure. Fig. 1b shows that the nanoparticles are well dispersed on the surface of the LIG sheets. The corresponding elemental mapping confirms the existence of the C, O, Fe, and Ni elements and their uniform dispersion. High-resolution TEM (HRTEM) was further performed to investigate the nanostructures in more details. The HRTEM image (Fig. 1d) reveals well-resolved lattice fringes with interplanar distances of 0.205 nm, 0.290 nm and 0.364 nm, of Fe3O4 and (002) plane of graphene, respectively.

    Indian Journal of Chemistry Vol. 51A, March 2012, pp. 435-443 A new calcium(II) coordination polymer based on a µ2-bridging tridentate 4-nitrobenzoate Bikshandarkoil R Srinivasana, *, Santosh Y Shetgaonkara, Manav Saxenab & Christian Nätherc aDepartment of Chemistry, Goa University, Goa 403 206, India Email: [email protected] bDepartment of Chemistry, Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, 208 016 India cInstitut für Anorganische Chemie, Christian-Albrechts-Universität Kiel, Max-Eyth Strasse 2, D-24118 Kiel, Germany Received 17 September 2011; revised and accepted 16 January 2012 Reaction of a heptacoordinated Ca(II) compound [Ca(H2O)4(4-nba)2] (4-nba = 4-nitrobenzoate) with 3,5-dimethyl- pyrazole (dmp) leads to the formation of an eight coordinated Ca(II) compound, [[Ca(H2O)2(4-nba)2]·2dmp]n, containing two coordinated water molecules, two unique 4-nba ligands and two free dmp molecules in the lattice. The µ2-bridging tridentate binding mode of the unique 4-nba ligands results in the formation of a one-dimensional (1-D) coordination polymer. The title compound exhibits enhanced fluorescence emission. An analysis of the six different bridging binding modes of the 4-nba ligand in twenty two different structurally characterized 4-nitrobenzoate compounds is described. Keywords: Coordination chemistry, Calcium, 4-Nitrobenzoates, 3,5-Dimethylpyrazole, Coordination polymers, Metal organic frameworks Coordination polymers (CPs) also known as metal differing dimensionalities can be constructed. For the organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted much oxophilic s-block metals, carboxylic acids are useful attention because of their topology and applications in linkers for the construction of coordination polymers catalysis, adsorption (gas storage), separation and as the metals can be linked into an extended chain luminescence1-3.

Srinivasan a *School of Physics, Madurai Kamaraj University, Madurai 625 021, India b Department of Physics, University College of Engineering Nagercoil, Anna University of Technology Tirunelveli, Nagercoil 629 004, India c Department of Chemistry, Goa University, Goa 403206, India Abstract The synthesis and characterization of a new Sr(II) coordination polymer [Sr(H 2O)(H- gly)2Cl2]n 1 (H-gly = glycine) is described. Compound 1 crystallizes in the centrosymmetric orthorhombic space group Pcnb and its structure consists of a central Sr(II) ion, a terminal water, a unique zwitterionic glycine and a chloride ion. The central metal is nine coordinated and is bonded to six oxygen atoms from four different bridging H-gly ligands, two symmetry related chloride ions and a terminal water. The µ2-tridentate bridging nature of the zwitterionic glycine results in the formation of a one dimensional coordination polymer with a Sr···Sr separation of 4.560 Å across the chain. The chloride, H-gly and the coordinated water are involved in five varieties of H-bonding interactions. A comparative study of the structural chemistry of several alkaline-earth glycine compounds is described. Keywords: Coordination polymer; strontium; glycine; zwitterion. 1 REVISED MANUSCRIPT GCOO-2011-0182 1. Introduction Coordination polymers (CPs) also known as metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted much attention because of their topology and applications in catalysis, adsorption (gas storage), separation, luminescence [1-3].
