0 Introduction

Recently,there has been much interest in the construction of coordination compounds due to their versatile structures and interesting topologies[1-4]as well as their potential applications as functional materialsinthefieldsofmolecularmagnetism, catalysis,gas sorption and optoelectronic devices[5-9].The most useful building blocks for constructing organic-inorganic hybrid coordination compounds are carboxylate and N-donor ligands.Aromatic carboxylate ligands have been extensively employed in the constructionofvariousdimensionalcoordination compounds because of their abundant coordination modes and high structural stability for functional materials applications[10-16].

In this aspect,the chelting ligand phenanthroline (phen)have been widely used in the construction of metal-organic coordination polymers[17].In addition,as a versatile ligand,4,4′-(ethane-1,2-diyldioxy)dibenzoic acid(H2eoba)has been hardly used to construct coordination compounds containing transition metals[18].

To explore the combination effects of this neutral ligandphenandanionicligand,wesynthesize coordination compounds of Co(Ⅱ)and Ni(Ⅱ)containing these ligands.Herein,we report the synthesis and characterizations of two new coordination compounds, namely,[Ni(eoba)(phen)(H2O)2]·0.58H2O(1)and [Co(eoba)(phen)(H2O)2]·H2O(2),which exhibit twodimensional(2D)supramolecular network structures.

All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically and the hydrogen atoms of organic ligands were generated geometrically.The details of the crystal parameters,data collection and refinement for 1 and 2 aresummarizedinTable1,andselectedbond parameters are given in Table 2.

2 Results and discussion

2.1 IR spectrum

For complex 1,the carboxylates are coordinated with its asymmetric and symmetric stretching appearing at 1 606(ν(OCO)assym)and 1 425 cm-1(ν(OCO)sym)[21], respectively.TheΔν(ν(OCO)assym-ν(OCO)sym)is 181cm-1,showing the presence of bidentate linkage of carboxylates in the dianions.Thus the carboxylates coordinate to the metal as bidentate ligands via the carboxylate groups[22].

Table 2Selected bond lengths(nm)and bond angles(°)for 1 and 2

The IR spectrum of complex 2 is similar to complex 1 with the Δν(ν(OCO)assym-ν(OCO)sym)of 180 cm-1showing the presence of bidentate linkages of carboxylates in the dianions.

2.2 Description of the structure

A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study reveals that complexes 1 and 2 are isostructral.They all crystallizeinmonoclinicspacegroupP21/cand feature a 2D network structure.Here,we only descript the complex 1.The coordination environment of Ni(Ⅱ)in complex 1 is shown in Fig.1.There are one Ni(Ⅱ) ion,one eoba ligand,one phen ligand,two coordinated water molecules and 0.58 lattice water molecules in the asymmetric unit.Each Ni(Ⅱ)ion is six-coordinated by two nitrogen atoms(N(1),N(2))from one phen molecule,two carboxylate oxygen atoms(O(1),O(2)) from one eoba ligand and two coordinated water molecules,showing a distorted octahedral geometry. The bond distances of Ni-O in complex 1 fall in the range of 0.201 47(16)～0.212 17(14)nm,and those of Ni-N in 0.207 94(16)～0.207 44(17)nm.The coordination angles around the Ni atom vary from 62.55(5)° to 172.73(6)°.In the coordination environment,the two carboxylate oxygen atoms(O(1),O(2)),one nitrogen atom(N(2))and one coordinated water molecules(O(8)) are located in the basal plane,whereas the other coordinated water molecules(O(7))and nitrogen atom (N(1))occupy the axial positions from the opposite directions.

In 1,the phen ligand adopts typical cheltingconformation,whileeacheobaligandadoptsμ2coordination mode.Further investigation of the crystal packingofcomplex1suggeststhatthereare persistent O-H…O hydrogen bonding interactions (Fig.2)between carboxylate oxygen atoms and water molecules of eoba ligands(Table 3)and are usually importantinthesynthesisofsupramolecular architecture[23].Moreover,there are π-π interactions in complex 1 between pyridine rings of phen ligands and between benzene rings of eoba ligands(Table 4). Therefore,throughhydrogenbondsandπ-π interactions,complex 1 is further extended into a twodimensional supramolecular network framework.

Toinvestigatewhethertheanalyzedcrystal structure is truly representative of the bulk materials, X-ray powder diffraction(PXRD)technology has been performed for the complex at room temperature(Fig.3). Themainpeakpositionsobservedareingood agreement with the simulated ones.Although minor differences can be found in the positions,widths,and intensitiesofsomepeaks,thebulksynthesized materials and analyzed crystal can still be considered as homogeneous.The differences may be due to the preferred orientation of the powder samples[24-25].

2.3 Thermal analysis

To study the thermal stability of 1 and 2, thermogravimetric(TG)analyses were performed on polycrystalline samples under a nitrogen atmosphere from 20 to 1 000℃at a heating rate of 10℃·min-1. For compound 1,the TG curve(Fig.4)reveals that the first weight loss of 10.3%from21 to 120℃corresponds to the removal of water molecules(Calcd. 7.9%).Upon further heating,an obvious weight loss (79.6%)occurs in the temperature range of 355～795℃,corresponding to the release of eoba and phen ligands(Calcd.82.0%).After 795℃,no weight loss is observed,which means the complete decomposition of 1.For compound 2,the TG curve is similar to 1. The first weight loss of 11.2%from 21 to 90℃corresponds to the removal of water molecules(Calcd. 12.2%),and an obvious weight loss(67.6%)occurs in the temperature range of 350～796℃corresponds to the release of eoba and phen ligands(Calcd.69.0%).

3 Theoretical calculation

All calculations in this work were carried out with the Gaussian09 program[26].The parameters of the molecular structure for calculation were all from the experimental data ofthecomplex.Naturalbond orbital(NBO)analysis was performed by density functional theory(DFT)[27]with the PBE0[28]hybrid functional and the LANL2DZ basis set[29].

The selected natural atomic charges,natural electron configuration,wiberg bond indices and NBO bond orders for the complex are shown in Table 5.It is indicated that the electronic configurations of Ni(Ⅱ) ion,N and O atoms are 4s0.293d8.324p0.44,2s1.312p4.20and 2s1.60～1.712p4.99～5.20,respectively.Basedontheaboveresults, one can conclude that the Ni(Ⅱ)ion coordination with N and O atoms is mainly on 4s,3d,and 4p orbitals. N atoms form coordination bonds with Ni(Ⅱ)ion using 2s and 2p orbitals.All O atoms supply electrons of 2s and 2p to Ni(Ⅱ)ion and form the coordination bonds. Therefore,the Ni(Ⅱ)ion obtained some electrons from two N atoms of phen ligand,two O atoms of eoba ligand and two coordinated water molecules[28-29].Thus, according to valence-bond theory,the atomic net charge distribution and the NBO bond orders of the complex 1(Table 5)shows the obvious covalent interaction between the coordinated atoms and Ni(Ⅱ) ion.The differences of the NBO bond orders for Ni-O and Ni-N bonds make their bond lengths be different[30],which is in good agreement with the X-ray crystal structural data of complex 1.

AscanbeseenfromtheFig.5,lowest unoccupied molecular orbital(LUMO)is mainlycomposed of eoba ligand,whereas highest occupied molecular orbital(HOMO)mainly consists of phen ligand.So,the charge transfer from ligand to ligand may be inferred from some contours of molecular orbital of complex 1.
