Crystal structures of bis(4-pyridinecarboxamido)alkane and bis(3-pyridinecarboxamido)alkane derivatives were determined and analyzed in terms of hydrogen bond networks. Seven crystal structures out of the eight structures ...

The metal–organic frameworks of amide based “flexible” ligands has been explored. The reaction of bis-(3-pyridyl)ethanediamide with Cu(PF6)2 resulted in a 1D looped chain, where the PF6− anions interact with the amide ...

A new di-Schiff base ligand has been prepared from 3-acetylpyridine and 1,2-diaminoethane and its structure has also been characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Furthermore, the ligand was found to form a 1 : ...

The reactions of bis(pyridinecarboxamido)alkanes with copper(II) in the presence of various anions and solvent systems afforded several polymeric crystalline complexes with or without guest inclusion. The crystal structure ...

Two exo-bidentate pyridyl ligands containing diamides as spacers were shown to form non-interpenetrated 2D-coordination networks of (4,4)-geometry upon treatment with Cu(NO3)2 and NaSCN. The crystal structures reveal that ...

The coordination polymer (CP) of bis(3-pyridyl)butanediamide with Cu(ClO4)2 is a 2D network (CP-3-Cu), which showed two-fold parallel interpenetration, whereas with Cd(ClO4)2 it is a 1D network containing rectangular loops ...

Formation of Coordination Polymers (CPs) of an amide based flexible ligand, bis(3-pyridyl)butanediamide, has been found to be directed by the anion of the starting metal salt: a 1D network with rectangular loops was obtained ...
