Abstract

Six novel metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), {Mn(bpydb)(bpyHdbH)} n (1) {[Co 2(bpydb) 2](H 2O) 0.5} n (2), {[Ni 0.5(bpydbH)(H 2O)](DMF) 2} n (3), {[Cu 2(bpydb) 2](H 2O) 0.5} n (4), {Zn(bpyHdb) 2} n (5) and {[Cd 0.5(bpydb) 0.5(DMF)](H 2O)} n (6), were successfully synthesized by assembling transition metal salts with trigonal heterofunctional ligand 4,4′-(4,4′-bipyridine-2,6-diyl) dibenzoic acid (bpydbH 2) under hydrothermal and/or solvothermal conditions. Compound 1 features a rare 4-fold interpenetrating (3,5)-connected framework with hms-type topology. Isostructural compounds 2 and 4, constructed by M 2(COO) 4 secondary building units, exhibit a robust 3D framework with alb topological type in 2-fold interpenetrating mode. Compound 3 consists of 2D (4,4) networks, which are further assembled into the new topological framework with the symbol (5 3·6 2·8)(5 3·6 3) 2 through O-H⋯O interactions. Compound 5 manifests a novel 4-connected interpenetrating framework, constructed by 2D (4,4) layers and interbedded N-H⋯O interactions. Non-interpenetrating honeycomb networks are observed in compound 6, and further packed into a 3D framework featuring 1D channels. The magnetic susceptibility of compound 2 indicates antiferromagnetic interactions between cobalt ions. The photoluminescent properties of 5 and 6 were investigated in the solid state at room temperature.
