International audience; Solid solution of Hydrogen bonded networks of formula ((1-2H +)3x(2-2H +)3(1-x)([Fe(CN)6] 3-2)). nH2O, where (1-2H +) and (1-2H +) are bisamidinium H bond donor entities, have been synthetized and structurally analysed. The H bonded systems display a honeycomb-like structure, and depending on the x value, three different pavages of the (6,3) system are observed, leading to three different phases. The precise location of the H bond donor cations (2-2H +) have been performed, evidencing H bonding between adjacent cations. Thermal properties of the solid solutions have been performed.

A new 3D Mn(II) coordination polymer, [Mn(2)(HCO(2))(L)(2)(N(3)) x MeOH](infinity) (1) (L = nicotinate N-oxide), was synthesized by a solvothermal reaction and characterized magnetically. Complex 1 is a typical antiferromagnet with alternating azide/azide/formate/formate bridges, exhibiting a new -J(1)J(1)J(2)J(2)- coupling sequence. This is the first complex to contain an azide, formate and another type of carboxylate ligand.

A new chiral 3D heterometallic coordination polymer [NaCo2(L)2(N3)·(MeOH)]∞ (1) (L = 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylate) was synthesized and characterized magnetically. Ferro- and antiferromagnetic interactions co-exist in 1, which results in a magnetic phase transition at the high temperature of 29 K.

The Cu(II) ions usually have different coordinated geometry to other 3d ions, especially Ni(II) and Co(II) ions, in azido-carboxylate mixed ligand systems. That provides a potential way to synthesize rare heterometallic 3d-3d azido complexes with peculiar magnetic properties. Assembling Cu(II), M(II) (M = Ni and Co), azido and nicotinic acid in hydrothermal condition, two novel isomorphic 3D heterometallic 3d-3d azido complexes, [CuM(N(3))(2)(nicotinate)(2)](∞) (M = Ni(II) for 1 and Co(II) for 2) were obtained. The structure of the complexes can be described as EO azido and syn,syn carboxylate mixed bridged spin sequence chains (-1/2-J(1)-1-J(2)-1/2- for 1 and -1/2-J(1)-3/2-J(2)-1/2- for 2) linked by the pyridyl groups. Dominant ferromagnetic interactions were observed between the Cu(II) and M(II) ions in the chains despite the largest M-N-M angle of about 129° in the 3d metal azido-carboxylate mixed coordinated systems and weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the chains. At low temperature, a spin-flop phase transition was present in the Co(II) involved complex 2.

Three new 1D lanthanide-azido complexes, [Ln(2)(N(3))(isonic)(2)-(OH)(3)(Hisonic)(H(2)O)](n) (Ln = Gd(III), Eu(III) and Sm(III)), were synthesized by hydrothermal reaction and their magnetic properties were studied.

A new 3D porous Ni(II)-azido complex has been synthesized and characterized and exhibits guest sorption properties explored by single-crystal to single-crystal transformations and linear ferromagnetic chains held together by a Ni-isonicotinate framework.

Four novel AgI coordination complexes with azole heterocycle ligands bearing acetic acid group, [AgL1]n (1), [Ag(L2HL2)]n (2), [AgL3]n (3) and [Ag(L4)]n (4) (here, HL1 = 1H-imidazole-1-acetic acid, HL2 =1H-benzimidazole-1-acetic acid, HL3 =1H-1,2,4-triazole-1-acetic acid, HL4 =1H-benzotriazole-1-acetic acid), have been synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR and X-ray diffraction. Structural analyses show that complex 1 possesses a two-dimensional structure, which contains silver chains formed by weak Ag–Ag interactions, and 2 consists of neutral chains connected by weak bonds (O⋯H⋯O), while 3 and 4 have a three-dimensional network and a one-dimensional chain structure, respectively. It is interesting that in 1 there exist Ag–Ag interactions with a separation of 3.156 A, which play an important role in the formation of the complex. Furthermore, the conductivity of 1 was studied in the powder state.

The reaction of LnIII salts with 1,5-naphthalenedisulfonate (1,5-NDS) or 2,7-naphthalenedisulfonate (2,7-NDS), and phenanthroline (phen) under hydrothermal conditions gave a series of new 2-D complexes {[Ln(1,5-NDS)1.5(phen)2(H2O)2]·3H2O}n [Ln = EuIII (1), GdIII (2), NdIII (3), TbIII (4)] and dinuclear compounds [Ln2(2,7-NDS)2(μ2-OH)2(phen)4(H2O)2]·4H2O [Ln = EuIII (5), GdIII (6), TbIII (7)], respectively. 1–4 are puckered (6,3) networks with 1,5-NDS as a bridge and phen chelating to LnIII ions. 5–7 are hydroxyl bridged dinuclear entities, which extend to 2-D networks by H-bonds.
