Two novel entangled metal–organic networks constructed from 4,4′-bis(2-methylimidazol-1-ylmethyl)biphenyl and dicarboxylates: From polycatenated 2D + 2D → 3D framework to polyrotaxane-like 2D + 2D → 2D layer

Abstract

Two novel entangled metal–organic networks, namely [Cd(bmimbp)(bdc)]n (1) and [Zn(bmimbp)(tbtpa)]n (2) (bmimbp = 4,4′-bis(2-methylimidazol-1-ylmethyl)biphenyl, H2bdc = 1,3-benzenedicarboxylic acid, H2tbtpa = tetrabromoterephthalic acid), exhibit a polycatenated 2D + 2D → 3D framework and a polyrotaxane-like 2D + 2D → 2D layer, respectively. Moreover, the thermal stabilities and photoluminescent properties are also discussed.
