Abstract

Abstract : SBUs consisting in penta- or trinuclear manganese(ii ) are held together by cpdps 2 - or cpdps 2 - and Hcpdps- species derived from bis( p -carboxyphenyl)diphenylsilane in 2D (4, 4) coordination polymers. Magnetic, thermal and moisture behaviors are studied. Abstract : A bent V-shaped silicon-containing linker, bis( p -carboxyphenyl)diphenylsilane (H2 cpdps), has been used to synthesize two coordination polymers, [Mn5 (cpdps)(HCOO)2 (H2 O)2 (DMF)4 ]·6DMF (1 ) (DMF – dimethylformamide) and [Mn3 (μ-H2 O)2 (Hcpdps)2 (cpdps)2 (DMF)2 ]·2DMF·12H2 O (2 ). The crystal structure of both compounds was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In complex1, pentanuclear manganese(ii ) secondary building units (SBUs) are held together by cpdps 2− ligands to form a 2D (4, 4) coordination polymer. Crystal2 is built of trinuclear manganese(ii ) SBUs that are held together by cpdps 2− and Hcpdps − ligands within a 2D (4, 4) coordination polymer. The magnetic susceptibility measurements revealed antiferromagnetic exchange interactions between the paramagnetic manganese(ii ) ions (d 5 ). The exchange interactions are ranging between −0.6 and −2.25 cm −1 . Thermal analysis consisting in simultaneous thermogravimetry and automated FTIR analysis of the evolved gases permitted to evaluate the stability of the compounds and identify the main processes underlying decomposition. The void volumes accessible for particular guest molecules (CO2, H2 O, Ar, N2 ) were theoretical estimated on the basis of the crystallographic data. Water vapor sorption capacity was measured experimentally in dynamic regime at room temperature.
