New 2D Coordination Polymer of Cobalt(II) Pivalate with 1,4-Diaminobutane: Synthesis and Thermal Properties
摘要
The reaction of cobalt(II) trimethyl acetate (pivalate) [Co(Рiv)2]n (HРiv = HO2CCMe3) with 1,4-diaminobutane (Dab) in powder XRD acetonitrile affords 2D coordination polymer [Co(Piv)2(Dab)2]n (I) with a coproduct impurity, but the addition of one equivalent of 2,2'-bipyridine to the reaction mixture makes it possible to isolate a single-phase sample of compound I (according to the powder XRD X-ray diffraction (XRD) data) in a yield of 78%. The crystal structure of compound I is determined by XRD (CIF file CCDC no. 2404406): the cobalt(II) atoms in the distorted octahedral environment (CoN4O2) of two monodentate carboxylate groups and four bridging Dab molecules form a layered coordination polymer with the honeycomb topology hcb. The thermal behavior of compound I is studied by simultaneous thermal analysis: the thermal decomposition of compound I leads to the formation of organic salt (H2Dab)(Piv)2, cobalt(II) pivalate, and octahedral complex [Co8O2(Piv)12]. The products are identified by powder XRD and NMR spectroscopy.
