Abstract: | The supramolecular structural diversities in mixed ligand systems derived from a series of dicarboxylate anions with varying chain lengths and N-donor exo-bidentate ligand equipped with hydrogen bonding capable amide backbone with Co(II)/Zn(II) metal centers are analyzed. In this context, two complexes namely (Co(L1)2(malonate)(H2O)2} (1a), {Zn(L1)2(malonate)(H2O)2} (1b) and one coordination polymer namely {[Co(μ-L1)(μ-glutarate)(H2O)] · H2O}n (4) (where L1 = N-(4-pyridyl)nicotinamide) have been synthesized and crystallographically characterized. The main aim of this work is to explore the effects of chain lengths of the anionic carboxylate ligands such as malonate, succinate, maleate, and glutarate, in determining the final architecture of coordination compounds based on the mixed ligands. Analyses of the structures revealed that the length of the bridging ligands have prominent effect in the formation of hierarchical structures. |
