An unprecedented 2-D clusterpolymer constructed from unique mixed-valence CuI6CuII6 subunits

Abstract

A new 2-D cluster-based polymer {[CuI6CuII6L6(H2O)3(CH3OH)6]·5H2O·3CH3OH}n (2) (H3L = C6H5C(O)NHC(S)NHCH2COOH) containing unique mixed-valence [CuI6CuII6L6] subunits was synthesized by reaction of single crystals of [Ln2(H2L)4(Phen)2(NO3)2] (Ln = Pr (1a), Nd (1b) or Ho (1c)) (Phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) with copper(II) acetate in aqueous DMF. Interestingly, cation-exchanged products {[CuI6CuII5Zn(H2O)3(CH3OH)6]·5H2O·3CH3OH}n (3) or {[CuI6CuII4Co2(H2O)3(CH3OH)6]·5H2O·3CH3OH}n (4) were obtained from single crystals of 2 and the appropriate M(NO3)2 (M = Zn or Co) in H2O.
