Three hybrid organic-inorganic coordination polymers with benzenepentacarboxylate (BPCA) linkers, [Co3(C6H(COO)5)(OH)(H2O)3] (1-Co), [Zn3(C6H(COO)5)(OH)(H2O)3] (2-Zn), and [Co5(C6H(COO)5)2(H2O)12].(H2O)12 (3-Co), were synthesized hydrothermally and were characterized structurally and magnetically. 1-Co and 2-Zn are isostructural [C2/c; Z=8; 1-Co, a=19.5350(6) A, b=10.4494(4) A, and c=13.2353(5)...

A number of linear coordination polymers have been assembled from lanthanide cations (Ln) and cucurbit[7]uril (Q[7]) in the presence of [CuCl4]or [CoCl4] anions acting as inorganic structure inducers in HCl solution. X-ray diffraction analysis has revealed that they form three groups of isomorphous structures. Generally, the complexes of Q[7] with light lanthanide cations (those with atomic num...

Nowadays, there has been an increasing demand to develop low-cost, disposable or reusable display devices to meet and maximize short-term user convenience. However, the disposable device has unfortunately not materialized yet due to the light-emitting materials and fabrication process issues. Here, we report sticker-type electrochemiluminescent (ECL) device using self-supporting, light-emitting...

A series of 1,1'-ferrocenedicarboxylate-based two-dimensional porous coordination polymers were synthesized by incorporating different diamine co-ligands. These compounds immobilized on electrodes, exhibited reversible redox reactions, arising from ferrocenyl moiety.

The reaction between the flexible ligand (1,4-bis(pyridine-2-yl-methanethio)benzene) and Ag+ produces two novel coordination polymers with macrocyclic cages or pockets contained within their backbones, depending upon the ratio of starting materials.

The bpy, dpe and dppe were introduced as auxiliary ligands, respectively, to construct three magnesium-1,4-NDC coordination polymers (Mg-CPs) that exhibited tunable photoluminescence (PL) and direct white-light emission upon varying the excitation light.

Pre-aggregation of lithium aryloxides into tetrahedral arrangements followed by crystallization with the divergent Lewis base dioxane results in the preparation of three types of coordination polymers: zig-zag chains, (6,3) sheets, and diamondoid lattices.

Four porous heterometallic coordination polymers were synthesized via a metalloligand strategy. All of them contain the [Pd(diimine)Cl(2)] moiety, which has good catalytic activity, and present remarkable versatility for catalysing Suzuki-Miyaura and Heck reactions.

Bimetallic coordination polymers (BiCPs) with Zn and Co were synthesized and applied as anode materials. When the rate was increased to 2 A g(-1), a capacity of 622 mA h g(-1) after 500 cycles could still be maintained.
