Coordination polymers(CPs)have developed rapidly recently duo to the fascinating structures and potential applications in adsorption,fluorescence, magnetism,chemical sensor,etc[1-5].The construction of CPs always beginswith the selection ofmetal nodes and organic building blocks.Among the two components,the selection of organic ligands is a key point tomanipulate the structures and properties[6].As we know,the conformationally rigid organic linkers are widely used to build targeted structures with certain topologies and applications[7-9].Compared with the coordination polymers based on rigid ligands,the CPs based on flexible ligands(denoted as FL-CPs) have attracted much interest[10-12].Such ligands bear the flexible spacers,whichmake the ligand rotate and bend freely to meet various coordination requirement ofmetal ions,and usually lead to intriguing structures such as helix,interpenetration and so on[13-15].

However,FL-CPs are more difficult to synthesis due to the flexible feature of the organic linkers.The synthesis process is strongly dependent on solvent, temperature,counter ions and other factors[16-18],which severely hinder the synthesis aswell as the prediction of extended network.To explore the effect of flexibility and conformation of the ligands on the self-assembly process,we designed a longer flexible ligand 1,5-bis(2-ethylbenzimidazole)pentane(bep).The distinct characteristics of bep ligand are as follows:(II)Five -CH2-spacers are introduced to the benzimidazole, which makes the ligand more flexible to suit the diverse coordinated environmentofmetal ions.(II)The 2-position substituentethyl could enhance the donated electrons ability of benzimidazole ring.(II)The long spacers of bep are in favor of the formation of coordination polymerswith helical features.

With the aforementioned consideration,three FL-CPs,[Cd(bep)(sba)]n(1),[Cd(bep)(bda)]n(2),and {[Cd2(bep)(ada)2]·H2O}n(3)(H2sda=4,4′-sulfonyldibenzoic acid,H2bda=biphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid, H2ada=1,3-adamantanediacetic acid)have been obtained based on the bep ligand and three assisted carboxylate ligands.Moreover,the thermal stability and luminescent behaviors of the complexes have also been studied.

the topological viewpoint,the network of complex 1 could be described as 63topology by treating Cd(II)as a 3-connector(Fig.1e).

2.2 Structure description of[Cd(bep)(bda)]n(2) Complex 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n.As depicted in Fig.2a,Cd1 is octahedrally coordinated by five carboxylate O atoms(O1,O2,O3i, O4i,O6)coming from three bda2-(Cd1-O/N 0.225 0(5)～0.243 8(5)nm)and one N1 atom from one bep ligand. Cd2 locates in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry with the structural index parameter(τ)of 0.36[24],and coordinated by four O atoms from three bda2-(Cd-O (O1,O5,O7ii,O8ii)0.224 4(5)～0.241 8(5)nm)and one N4 atom of one bep ligand(Cd-N(N4)0.221 6(6)nm). Interestingly,there exist two kinds of independent bda2-.One kind of bda2-adopts a(κ1-κ1)-(κ2)-μ3coordination mode,while the other adopts a(κ2-μ2)-(κ2)-μ3coordination mode.One carboxylate group links Cd1 and Cd2 in(κ2-μ2)mode to produce a binuclear Cd2unit with Cd…Cd separation of 0.394 28 nm.Then the binuclear unit is further connected by the carboxylate groups to produce a 2D layer(Fig.2b). The bep ligand takes an asymmetric trans-conformation with the Ndonor…N-Csp3…Csp3torsion angles of 110.4° and 105.4°,respectively.Under the help of one carboxylate group with(κ1-κ1)mode,Cd1,Cd2 and bep form a 14-membered ring.Different from complex 1, the bep ligand just decorate on the 2D layer from two sides,which looks like protruding flowers.If the dinuclear Cd2unit is considered as a 4-connected node,the 2D skeleton could be represented as a 44net(Fig.2c).

2.3 Structure description of{[Cd2(bep)(ada)2]· H2O}n(3)

Complex 3 crystallizes in monoclinic crystal system with a space group P21/n.Cd(II)is octahedrally coordinated with four O atoms(O1,O2,O3i,O4i)of twoada2-and two N atoms(N1,N4ii)of two bep ligands (Fig.3a).The Cd-N/O bond distances are in the range of0.2301(4)～0.236 5(3)nm.Theada2-takesabidentate chelated(κ2)-(κ2)-μ2coordination mode,linking each Cd(II)to form a 1D chain structure,in which the Cd…Cd distance is 1.019 68 nm.Then each 1D chain is linked further to produce a 2D framework by the asymmetric trans-conformational bep ligand with Ndonor…N-Csp3…Csp3torsion angles of 87.021°and 46.759°, respectively(Fig.3b).Moreover,two Cd(II)and two bep ligands also constructa 20-membered ringswith Cd…

Cd separation of 1.128 97 nm.Interestingly,under the help of hydrogen-bond interactions,Cd(II),the ada2-and the guest H2O molecules are connected together to form an extraordinary helical chain with a pitch of 2.007 30 nm.The helical chains finally ensure the assembling of the 2D layers into a 3D supramolecular (Fig.3c).Topological analysis reveals that,the framework of complex 3 could be described as 63topology, by treating Cd(II)ion as a 3-connector(Fig.3d).

2.4 Influenceof thebep ligand and dicarboxylates

Based on the flexible features of bep,the ethylbenzimidazole could twist freely around the-CH2-spacers with different Ndonor…N-Csp3…C sp3torsion angles.In complex 1,the Ndonor…N-Csp3…Csp3torsion angles are 79.949°and 139.146°,respectively,and two bep connect two Cd(II)to construct a 20-membered ring motif.A similar 20-membered ring is also constructed by two bep and two Cd(II)in complex 3, where the torsion angles of bep are 87.021°and 46.759°,respectively.When both of the torsion angles are relative large,a smaller 14-membered ring is constructed with the help of bda2-in complex 2. Meanwhile,the bep just decorates on the 2D layer and plays no role in the control of dimensionality due to the large torsion angles.

In this paper,three dicarboxylates are introduced into the synthetic process to increase the structural diversity.In complex 1,the sba2-exhibits chelating coordination modes and links each Cd(II)to construct 1D wave-like chains.Similarly,a 1D wave-like chain structure is also constructed by the ada2-with the same coordination fashion in complex 3.Then each chain is further bridged by the bep,forming a 2D layered structure.As to complex 2,the connecting modesofbda2-aremore complicated than those of sba2-and ada2-.Different from the simple chelating mode, the bda2-connects two binuclear Cd units by adopting the(κ2-μ2)-(κ2)-μ3fashion to directly produce a 2D puckered layer without the help of bep ligand.

2.5 XRD patterns and thermal analyses

The phase purity of these crystalline materials was recorded.As shown in Fig.4,the experimental XRD patterns were comparable to the simulated ones, which indicated a pure phase of each bulky sample.

To examine the thermal stability,thermogravimetric analysis of complex 1～3 were carried out(Fig. 5).For anhydrous complex 1 and 2,no obviousweight loss was observed before 350℃,and then the

frameworks begin to decompose.A white residue of CdO(Obsd.15.38%,Calcd.16.52%for 1;Obsd. 23.33%,Calcd.24.10%for 2)was obtained at 660 and 490℃,respectively.For complex 3,there was a weight loss of 2.73%before 137℃attributed to the release ofuncoordinated H2Omolecule(Calcd.2.43%). The overall framework began to collapse at 293℃and the residue was CdO(Obsd.17.15%,Calcd. 17.32%).

2.6 Lum inescent property

Given that d10coordination complexes have potential applications in photoactive materials,the luminescent properties of complexes 1～3 in the solid state aswellas freebep ligand and three dicarboxylates were investigated(Fig.6).The emission peak for bep was observed at 310 nm(λex=280 nm),while the emission peaks for dicarboxlates were observed at 370,390 and 420 nm(λex=340 nm)for H2sba,400 nm (λex=276 nm)for H2bda,and 390 nm(λex=210 nm)for H2ada,respectively.Complex 1 exhibited a wide emission band from 300～500 nm with the emission peaks at 320,370,and 427 nm(λex=277 nm).The peak at 320 nm(red shift of10 nm compared with the bep)was attributed to the ligand-to-metal charge transfer(LMCT),and the emission peak at 370 nm was attributed to the intraligand transition of H2sba, whereas the peak at 427 nm(red shift of 7 nm compared with H2sba)was also due to the LMCT[25]. Complex 2 showed an obvious emission peak at 372

nm(λex=277 nm),which was blue shift of 28 nm compared with that of H2bda,and it could be deduced as intraligand transition of H2bda[26-27].For complex 3, it displayed the emission peak at 304 nm(λex=286 nm),which could also be attributed to the intraligand transitions of bep ligand.

3 Conclusions

By introducing multiple-CH2-spacers to the 2-ethylbenzimidazole,we designed a flexible N-containing ligand,and three FL-CPs were synthesized successfully based on the flexible ligand and three carboxylate ligands.These complexes all exhibited 2D layered structures.The structural diversity revealed that the design of flexible ligand was very important to construct diverse FL-CPs,especially with helical structures.In addition,the selection of assisted carboxylate ligands also provided an effective way to increase the structural diversities.

Three coordination polymers,[Cd(bep)(sba)]n(1),[Cd(bep)(bda)]n(2),and{[Cd2(bep)(ada)2]·H2O}n(3) have been prepared based on a newly designed flexible ligand 1,5-bis(2-ethylbenzimidazole)pentane(bep)and three dicarboxylates(H2sba=4,4′-sulfonyldibenzoic acid,H2bda=biphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid,H2ada=1,3-adamantanediacetic acid).The complexes all exhibit 2D layer frameworks.Complex 1 is constructed by the alternant Cd(II)/bep/sba2-helical chains.In complex 2,the 2D layer is composed of Cd/bda2-units and the bep ligand just coordinates to Cd(II)asmonodentate ligand.Complex 3 is connected by the hydrogen-bonding helical chains Cd/ada2-/H2O to form a 3D supramolecule network.Solid-state properties of X-ray powder diffractions, thermal stability and luminescent properties for these crystallinematerials are also investigated.CCDC:1469166, 1;1469167,2;1469168,3.
