ABSTRACT
Five novel two-dimensional frameworks containing formate-bridged metal-centered octahedra are synthesized ionothermally from two ionic liquids previously unused as solvents in hybrid synthesis, 2-hydroxyethylammonium (HEA) formate, and 1-hydroxy-3-proplyammonium (HPA) formate. Templating effects of the cation from each ionic liquid drive the formation of different structures. [NH(3)C(2)H(4)OH](2)[M(CHO(2))(4)] (1: M = Co, 2: M = Ni) exhibit the same stoichiometry and connectivity as their manganese analogue (3: M = Mn), but the manganese form exhibits a different topology from 1 and 2. [NH(3)C(3)H(6)OH][M(CHO(2))(3)(H(2)O)] (4: M = Co, 5: M = Mn) were synthesized using the HPA formate ionic liquid with a metal-formate connectivity related to those of 1-3. Canted antiferromagnetic ordering occurs at low temperatures (1: T(N) = 7.0 K, 2: T(N) = 4.6 K, 3: T(N) = 8.0 K, 4: T(N) = 7.0 K, 5: T(N) = 9.2 K), similar to the magnetic properties previously reported for other metal-formate hybrid materials.
ABSTRACT
A gallium-based metal-organic framework Ga(6)(C(9)H(3)O(6))(8)·(C(2)H(8)N)(6)(C(3)H(7)NO)(3)(H(2)O)(26) [1, Ga(6)(1,3,5-BTC)(8)·6DMA·3DMF·26H(2)O], GaMOF-1; BTC = benzenetricarboxylate/trimesic acid and DMA = dimethylamine], with space group I43d, a = 19.611(1) Å, and V = 7953.4(6) Å(3), was synthesized using solvothermal techniques and characterized by synchrotron-based X-ray microcrystal diffraction. Compound 1 contains isolated gallium tetrahedra connected by the organic linker (BTC) forming a 3,4-connected anionic porous network. Disordered positively charged ions and solvent molecules are present in the pore, compensating for the negative charge of the framework. These positively charged molecules could be exchanged with alkali-metal ions, as is evident by an ICP-MS study. The H(2) storage capacity of the parent framework is moderate with a H(2) storage capacity of ~0.5 wt % at 77 K and 1 atm.
ABSTRACT
The structure of the title compound, [Mg(C(10)H(6)O(6)S(2))(C(3)H(7)NO)(2)](n), consists of MgO(6) octa-hedra ( symmetry) connected to naphthalene-1,5-disulfonate ligands ( symmetry) in the equatoral plane, forming a two-dimensional network propagating parallel to (010). The coordination sphere of the Mg atom is completed by the O atoms of two N,N-dimethyl-formamide (DMF) mol-ecules in the axial positions. The title compound represents the first time the naphthalene-1,5-disulfonate anion is bound directly to a Mg(2+) atom. Disorder over two positions was found in the DMF mol-ecule in a 0.518â (8):0.482â (8) ratio.
ABSTRACT
The title compound, [Nd(C(10)H(16)O(4))(C(10)H(17)O(4))(H(2)O)](n), has a novel Nd-organic framework constructed from sebacic acid (C(10)H(18)O(4)) linkers, the longest aliphatic ligand used to date in lanthanide metal-organic framework compounds. The structure contains edge-shared chains of NdO(8)(H(2)O) tricapped trigonal prisms that propagate in the [100] direction, with Nd-O distances in the range 2.414 (4)-2.643 (4) A.
ABSTRACT
Two novel uranyl adipates are reported as synthesized via hydrothermal treatment of uranium oxynitrate and adipic acid. One-dimensional UO(2)(C(6)H(8)O(4))(H(2)O)(2) (1) [a = 9.6306(6) A, c = 11.8125(10) A, tetragonal, P4(3)2(1)2 (No. 96), Z = 4] consists of chains of (UO(2))O(4)(H(2)O)(2) hexagonal bipyramids tethered through a linear adipic acid backbone. Three-dimensional UO(2)(C(6)H(8)O(4)) (2) [a = 5.5835(12) A, b = 8.791(2) A, c = 9.2976(17) A, alpha = 87.769(9) degrees, beta = 78.957(8) degrees, gamma = 81.365(11) degrees, triclinic, P1 (No. 2), Z = 2] is produced by decreasing the hydration level of the reaction conditions. This structure contains a previously unreported [(UO(2))(2)O(8)] building unit cross-linked into a neutral metal-organic framework topology with vacant channels.
