A novel nickel(Ⅱ) coordination polymer{[Ni(HL)2(H2O)2]·2H2O}n(H2L=5-((pyridin-3-ylmethyl)amino)isophthalic acid)(1)has been synthesized by the reaction of Ni(NO3)2·6H2O and H2L under hydrothermal condition.The structure of 1 was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.Complex 1 crystallizes in triclinic space groupwith a=0.76479(11)nm,b=0.87049(13)nm,c=1.08113(16)nm,α=85.583(2)°,β=82.614(2)°,γ=81.565(2)°,V=0.70482(18)nm3,Z=1,Dc=1.586 g·cm-3,μ=0.763 mm-1and F(000)=350.The coordination environment of Ni(Ⅱ) is octahedral,and each ligand links two Ni(Ⅱ)atoms using its pyridyl N atom and carboxylate O atom to generate an infinite one-dimensional(1D)chain structure.The 1D chains are further connected by hydrogen bonds to give a three dimensional structure.CCDC:769438.

During the past decade,many chemists have focused their efforts on the synthesis and investigation of highly organized metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)due to their fantastic structural diversities[1-2]as well as potential applications in many areas including gas storage[3],anion exchange[4],catalysis[5]and so on[6-7].Up to now,multidentate N-or O-donor ligands have been widely used and many MOFs have been constructed bythe reactions of N-containing or O-containing ligands with corresponding metal salts,such as 1,3,5-Tris(imidazol-1-yimethyl)benzene[8],1,3,5-benzenetriacetic acid[9],and benzenedicarboxylic acid[10].

Our research is concentrated on the synthesis of coordination polymers based on N,O-bifunctional ligands.Due to the different coordination abilities of N,O atoms to transition or rare-earth metals,the ligands containing both N and O as coordination donors are now often used to synthesize hetero-metallic lanthanidetransition metal complexes[11],which have attracted many attentions due to theirspecialvalue in investigation on the nature of the magnetic exchange interactions between 3d and 4f metal ions in magnetic materials that contain rare earth metals[12].Meanwhile,Schiff-base ligands have also attracted many attentions of chemists in the past few years[13-14]because of the convenience in synthesis,good coordination ability and wide applications of Schiff-base complexes.Herein,we report the hydrothermal synthesis and crystal structure of a new nickel(Ⅱ)complex based on novel pyridylcarboxylate Schiff-base ligand.

2 Results and discussion

2.1 Structure description

Complex 1 was prepared by the reaction of Ni(NO3)·6H2O with the sodium salt of H2L ligand in C2H5OH/H2O system and crystallized in triclinic system,space groupThe coordination environment around Ni(Ⅱ)centers are depicted in Fig.1.In complex 1,the Ni(Ⅱ)ions are six coordinated,where the equatorial plane is completed by two coordinated water molecules and two carboxylic O atoms from two different ligands with Ni-O distance of 0.202 31(15)and 0.209 89(17)nm,respectively.The apical positions are occupied by two N atoms from another two different ligands with Ni-N distance of 0.2104(2)nm,and the N-Ni-O,O-Ni-O and N-Ni-N bond angles vary from 89.47(7)°to 180°.Thus,the coordination geometry of the six-coordinated Ni(Ⅱ)center can be regarded as a slightly distorted octahedral in N2O4set.It is interesting that although double base has been used,there are still half carboxylate groups are not deprotonated,which just do not participate in the coordination to the metal centers.On the other hand,the deprotonated carboxylate groups coordinate to Ni(Ⅱ) with μ1-η1∶η0coordination mode.

In complex 1,each ligand coordinates to two Ni(Ⅱ)ions with its pyridyl and deprotonated carboxylategroups,and each metal ions links two ligand to form a 22-membered macrocycle,where the Ni…Ni distances are 1.081 nm.The two benzene rings in one cycle are parallel to each other with centroid…centroid distance of 0.412 nm,indicating the existence of rather weak π…πinteractionbetweenthetwoaromaticrings(Fig.2)[18].The dihedral angle of benzene ring and pyridyl ring of the ligand is 73.5°.This macrocycle spread alongcaxis to form a one-dimensional chain structure in 1.

The 1D chains are further connected by hydrogen bonds to give a three-dimensional(3D)structure[19-20].The hydrogen bonding data of 1 are summarized in Table 2.First,the C11…O1W#1 distance of 0.335 3(3)nm and C11-H11-O1W#1 angle of 143°indicate the formation of C11-H11…O1W#1 hydrogen bond between the neighboring 1D chains,which link the 1D chains to produce a two-dimensional(2D)network(Fig.2).Furthermore,such 2D networks are linked by another O2W-H2WA…O3#1,N2-H2…O2#2,O2WH2WB…O2#3,O1W-H1WB…O2W#1,O4-H4A…O3#4 hydrogen bonds (Table 2)to generate 3D framework.The results reveal that the hydrogen bonds play important role in stabilizing the whole structure of complex 1.The investigations on reactions of ligand H2L with other metal salts are still in progress.
