Abstract

By employing semi-flexible multi-N donor auxiliary ligands, namely 1,4-bis(5-pyrimidyl)benzene (bpmb) in conjunction with azide, novel Co(II) 2D coordination polymers have been successfully synthesized and structurally characterized, along with magnetic analysis. The resulting compound, {Co(N3)(bpmb)(H2O)2·H2O}n (1), exhibits a unique 2D structure comprised of interconnected Co(II) chains bridged by single end-to-end (EE) azide moieties. These chains are further linked by twisted trans-μ2-N,N′-bpmb auxiliary ligands, forming a grid-like network. Additionally, the layers are held together in a 3D arrangement through hydrogen bonding interactions between the coordination water and the N atom of the bpmb ligands. Importantly, magnetic investigations reveal that compound 1 displays weak ferromagnetism attributed to spin canting, with a critical temperature (Tc) of 12 K.
