Abstract

Three novel transition metal coordination polymers, [Ni(C18H16N3O2)2·2CH3OH] n (1), [Zn(C18H16N3O2)2·4CH3OH] n (2) and [Cd(C18H16N3O2)2·2CH3OH] n (3) (C18H16N3O2=2-acetylpyridine-d-tryptophan) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV, 1H NMR and X-ray diffraction single crystal analysis. The analyses of the structures indicate that all three materials crystallize in the tetragonal crystal system, space group P41212. They have similar structures; i.e., the Schiff base coordinates in its deprotonated form and behaves as a hexadentate (4N+2O) coordinated ligand to form a distorted octahedron geometry. On the other hand, as a result of the alternate arrangement of chains through N–H···O intermolecular hydrogen bonds interactions, 2-D layers are formed for the three complexes. Furthermore, the luminescent properties and thermal stabilities of the three complexes were investigated.
