Abstract

This paper reports two new coordination polymers formed by carboxylate-substituted benzoimidazole and formate ligands: [Mn(L)·(HCO2)] n (1) and [Co(L)·(HCO2)] n (2) (L = benzoimidazol-1-yl-acetate). Complexes 1 and 2 are isomorphous and adopt a new 3,6-connected three-nodal topology showing interesting magnetic properties: spin canted antiferromagnetism for MnII complex 1, but simple antiferromagnetic coupling for CoII complex 2.
