Solvent-controlled assembly of two Zn(II) coordination polymers constructed from 1,3,5-tris(1-imidazolyl)benzene and 2,5-dichloroterephthalic acid with fluorescent recognition of carcinogenic dye in chloroform

Two Zn(II) coordination polymers, [Zn 2 (tib) 2 (BDC-Cl 2 )(HBDC-Cl 2 ) 2 ]·2H 2 O (1) and [Zn(tib)(BDC-Cl 2 )]·H 2 O (2), were synthesized by reaction of 1,3,5-tris(1-imidazolyl)benzene (tib) and 2,5-dichloroterephthalic acid (H 2 BDC-Cl 2 ) with Zn 2+ under solvothermal conditions. The results of...

Summary:Two Zn(II) coordination polymers, [Zn 2 (tib) 2 (BDC-Cl 2 )(HBDC-Cl 2 ) 2 ]·2H 2 O (1) and [Zn(tib)(BDC-Cl 2 )]·H 2 O (2), were synthesized by reaction of 1,3,5-tris(1-imidazolyl)benzene (tib) and 2,5-dichloroterephthalic acid (H 2 BDC-Cl 2 ) with Zn 2+ under solvothermal conditions. The results of X-ray single-crystal analysis show that 1 possesses a 1-D chain structure, while 2 exhibits a 2-D layer structure with {4 4 ·6 2 } topology. Both display a 3-D supramolecular framework through hydrogen bonding interactions. Experimental results indicated that the ratio of solvent may regulate the structural formation of the polymers. 1 and 2 were further characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and elemental analysis. Notably, 1 and 2 possess the ability to identify chloroform by emitting specific fluorescence spectra. Both can detect carcinogens in dyes by the modified fluorescent signal of the compound in chloroform.
