Abstract

Two new complexes, {[Zn(imb)(SO4)]·H2O}n (1) and {[Cd2(imb)2(SO4)2(H2O)]·CH3OH}n (2) (imb = 2-(1H-imidazol-1-methyl)-1H-benzimidazole), have been solvothermally synthesized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction shows that 1 displays a 2-D (4,4) network, which is further extended to a 3-D supramolecular structure by hydrogen bonding interactions. Complex 2 exhibits a 3-D framework with (3,5)-connected (42·6)2(42·65·83)2 topology. The results indicate that changing metal ions can influence the coordination modes of sulfate, and then affect the structures of the complexes. In addition, IR and UV–vis spectra, powder X-ray diffraction patterns, thermogravimetric analyses, and fluorescent properties of both complexes have been investigated.
