Abstract

A novel chiral coordination polymer [AgSCN(phen)]n (1) (phen = phenanthroline) has been designed and synthesized. Compound 1 has been obtained by solvothermal reaction of AgSCN and phenanthroline. The title compound has been fully characterized by Infrared spectrum, elemental analysis, and X-ray single crystal diffraction etc. Structural analysis has revealed that complex 1 crystallizes in P21 chiral space group of monoclinic crystal system. The chiral compound 1 shows an unusual asymmetric one-dimensional network derived from a zigzag [Ag–S–Ag]n chain with the thiocyanate ions and phenanthroline ligands hanging along the opposite sides of the chain, respectively. The diagram of the packed unit cell along the b axis is very similar to the Chinese “taiji” patterning. The X-ray powder diffraction, optical absorption spectrum and thermal stability of the title complex have been studied. The photoluminescent property of compound 1 at solid state has also been investigated.
