Coordination polymers of Ag(i) and Hg(i) ions with 2,2′-azobispyridine: synthesis, characterization and enhancement of conductivity in the presence of Cu(ii) ions

Abstract

The cationic coordination polymers (CPs) of the types [Hg2(abpy)2]n[PF6]2n (1) and [Ag(abpy)]n[PF6]n (2) (abpy = 2,2′-azobispyridine) were synthesized and characterized. Experimentation using the crystals confirmed that 1 and 2 are conductors of electricity. The relative conductivity of 1 is 62 times greater than that of 2. The conductivity of 1 increases 70 fold when it reacts with Cu2+ ions.
