Three novel organosilver(I) coordination networks constructed from diallylmelamine and polycarboxylates incorporating silver-vinyl bonding

Abstract

Diallylmelamine combines with Ag2O and auxiliary polycarboxylates to give three stable crystalline network structures, namely, [Ag2(dama)2(nipt)·H2O·C2H5OH]n (1), [Ag2(dama)(glu)]n (2), and [Ag4(dama)2(pma)·2H2O]n (3), (dama = diallylmelamine, H2nipt = 5-nitroisophthalic acid, H2glu = glutaric acid, H4pma = pyromellitic acid), which have been successfully synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR Spectra, powder X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analyses, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 is a 1D double-chain extended by μ2-N,N′-(η2-vinyl)-dama and μ3-nipt along the b axis. Notably, dama ligands in 1 display two coordination modes (bidentate μ2-N,N′-(η2-vinyl) and monodentate μ1-N) and two different conformations (cisanti-gauche and transanti-anti). In 2, a pair of centrosymmetric glu ligands clamp two Ag(I) ions to form a half paddle-wheel [Ag2(COO)2] secondary building unit (SBU) which is further extended by μ2-N,N′-(η2-vinyl)-dama to form a 1D tape. Complex 3 is a 2D sheet built from μ3-N,N′,N′′-(η2-vinyl)-dama and μ8-pma. Interestingly, apparent silver–vinyl interactions with a η2 mode were commonly observed in the solid-state structures of 1–3 (Ag–C = 2.311(4)–2.467(5) Å). The structural dissimilarity between 1 and 2 is caused by the different auxiliary polycarboxylates and different coordination modes of dama. In addition, the thermal stabilities and emissive behaviors of them were also investigated.
