Abstract
By utilizing the flexible quadritopic ligand, tetrakis(3-pyridyloxymethyl)methane (L), two novel coordination polymers have been synthesized and structurally characterized. {[Cu3(L)2(acetate)6]·10(H2O)}n has a 1D chain crystal structure with a SP 2-periodic net with the Schläfli symbol {36·46·53} modeled by acetate ions. In {[Cu2(L)(benzoate)4]·2(CH3OH)·H2O}n, we substituted the acetate with benzoate and obtained 2D crystal structure with an novel 2, 3, 4 net with the Schläfli symbol {4·82}2{42·82·102}{8}. The structural results show that utilizing a flexible ligand is a good approach to achieve diversity in coordination polymer structures and could be easily affected by the carboxylate anions.
