ABSTRACT: A double Schiff-base ligand 1,4-bis(2-thiazolyl)-2,3-diaza-1,3-butadiene (L8) has been synthesized, and its coordination chemistry with various silver salts AgX (X ) SbF6-, SO3CF3-, H2PO4-, and NO3-) has been investigated. The resulting molecular structures are delicately dependent on the nature of the counterions and the solvent intermedia. Uncoordinating counterions (X ) SbF6- and SO3CF3-) generated the hydrogen-bonded frameworks based on discrete molecular complex building blocks, whereas coordinating anions (X ) H2PO4- and NO3-) formed polymeric complexes driven by the metal-anion interactions. Furthermore, the luminescent and electrical conductive properties of some new complexes were investigated. Introduction During the past decade, pronounced interest has been focused on new discrete supramolecular complexes and coordination polymers based on polydentate organic ligands due to their novel structural topologies and potential applications in sensing, catalysis, ion exchange, separations, or gas storage.1-3 To date, various intriguing molecular frames have been designed and synthesized by the direct chemical combination of the selected basic components such as the coordination geometry of metal cations, the binding site of donating atoms, and the length and shape of spacers by the induction of weak intra- or/and intermolecular interactions. In addition, the features of counterions such as charge, size, geometry, and solvent templating effects imply that the polyatomic counterions and solvent intermedia play crucial roles in the self-assembly of functional molecular complexes, which was reflected by recent achievements in the function of anions and solvent intermedia in supramolecular chemistry.4 We have been exploring the metal-organic assemblies based on the double Schiff-base ligands.5 Our previous research demonstrated that such types of ligands are very useful to construct novel polymeric and discrete complexes due to their zigzag conformation of the spacer moiety (-RCdN-NdCR-) between the two terminal coordination groups. As shown in Scheme 1, pyridine, pyrazine, and quinoxaline diazene types of organic ligands have been used as the building blocks, but the exploitation of the ligands with two terminal five-membered heterocyclic rings such as the thiazole moiety has until recently remained unexplored. Pursuing our research in this area, we describe here the coordination chemistry of the double Schiffbase ligand 1,4-bis(2-thiazolyl)-2,3-diaza-1,3-butadiene (L8) with various silver salts AgX (X ) SO3CF3-, SbF6-, H2PO4-, and NO3-) and the luminescent and conductive properties of these new discrete and polymeric complexes (Scheme 1). Experimental Section Materials and Methods. AgSO3CF3, AgSbF6, AgH2PO4, AgNO3, and 2-acetylthiazole (Acros) were used as obtained without further purification. Infrared (IR) samples were prepared as KBr pellets, and spectra were obtained in the 400-4000 cm-1 range using a Perkin* To whom correspondence [email protected].

complex of formula [Ag2L82]SbF6‚(THF). 1 is not soluble in water and common organic solvents but soluble in CH3CN and DMSO to some extent. The electrospray (ES) mass spectrum shows peaks at m/z ) 357 and 359, which corresponds to the formation of [Ag2L82]2+ species in solution. Compound 1 was found to crystallize in the space group monoclinic, P2/c. Crystallographic data for 1 are shown in Table 1. Selected bond lengths and angles are shown in Table 5. X-ray single-crystal analysis revealed that each Ag(I) ion lies in a distorted tetrahedral coordination environment which consists of two thiazole N-donors and two Schiff-base N-donors from two L8 ligands, respectively. Thus, the L8 ligand herein is fourcoordinated and binds two silver cations through two pair of chelating N-donors in the middle into a chiral double-helical dimer with the Ag‚‚‚Ag distance of 5.1 Å (Figure 1). As shown in Figure 1, the ligand is badly twisted, which is reflected by the large dihedral angle (86.61°) between the two terminal thiazole planes. 1 contains equal amounts of the two enantiomers (Figure 2). Interestingly, two enantiomers are connected to each other by three sets of F‚‚‚H-C hydrogen bonds,7 respectively, into two-dimensional (2D) chiral nets with opposite chirality (Figure 3). As indicated in Figure 4, these 2D chiral layers are extended parallel to the crystallographic ac plane and stacked alternatively along the crystallographic b axis to generate parallelogram-like channels, in which the THF solvent molecules are located as the guest (Figure 5). Compound [Ag(L8)SbF6]‚CH2Cl2 (2) was prepared in 90% yield following the same procedure as that for 1 but using the toluene/CH2Cl2 mixed solvent system instead of the THF/CH2Cl2 mixed solvent system. The X-ray single-crystal analysis revealed that 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space Pna2(1). It is different from 1, and 2 exists as a trimer and possesses a trinuclear circular triple-helical structure. As indicated in Figure

6, there are three types of crystallographically independent Ag(I) ions in 2, each again lying in a distorted tetrahedral coordination environment defined by the two thiazole N-donors and two Schiff-base N-donors provided by three four-coordinated L8 ligands, respectively. The dihedral angle between two terminal thiazole rings is 52.54°, which is smaller than that of 1. Consistent with this intraligand twisting, the compound exhibits a triple-helical [Ag3L83]3+ crown-like trimer, in which three Ag(I) atoms form an nonequilateral triangle with Ag‚‚‚Ag

distances of 5.5, 5.4, and 5.2 Å, respectively. The dimensions of the crown (i.e., the distances between the thiazole S atoms on the same side of the trisilver plane) are 6.7, 7.5, and 8.0 Å, respectively, and the shortest distance between Ag(I) and S atoms on the same side is 4.5 Å. It is worth pointing out that, in 2, there are two sets of crown complexes that are oriented in different directions in the solid state. Four neighboring [Ag3L83]3+ units, two with the same orientation, surround one of three SbF6anions to generate a cavity (Figure 7). Additionally, very complicated hydrogen-bonding systems are present in 2. As shown in Figure 7, three and four SbF6- anions are located above and below the crown, respectively, and hydrogen bonded to the [Ag3L83]3+ unit through weak F‚‚‚H-C bonds.7 In the solid state, 2 consists of an infinite three-dimensional (3D) hydrogen-bonded network in which [Ag3L83]3+ subunits are connected to each other through SbF6- nodes. The Sb(2)F6anion and methylene chloride solvent molecules fill in the channels extended along the crystallographic b axis (Figure 8). Compound 2 is air stable. The thermogravimetric analyses trace of 2 show that the methylene chloride molecules are lost from 50 to 110 °C and the framework of 2 is stable up to 230 °C. The electrospray (ES) mass spectrum shows a peak at m/z ) 357 and 359, which corresponds to the formation of [Ag3L83]3+ species in DMSO.
