Metal-Organic Coordination Polymers of Cadmium Based on Anilate Ligands

New metal-organic coordination polymers (MOCPs) of cadmium(II) based on chelate-type ligands have been synthesized. The structural features of the obtained zigzag polymer derivatives [Cd(pQ)(1,2-PG)]⋅2DMF, [Cd(pQ)⋅2DMAA], [Cd(pQ)⋅2NMP], [Cd(pQ)(1,2-PG)]⋅2NMP, [Cd(CA)⋅2NMP], and [Cd(CA)(1,3-PG)]⋅2NMP (where pQ is the dianion of 2,5-di-hydroxy-3,6-di- tert -butyl- p -benzoquinone, CA is the dianion of chloranilic acid, 1,2-PG is 1,2-propanediol, 1,3-PG is 1,3-propanediol, DMF is N , N -dimethylformamide, DMAA is N , N -dimethylacetamide, NMP is N -methyl-2-pyrrolidone) are studied. The molecular and crystal structures of the synthesized MOCPs were established by X-ray diffraction analysis of single crystals.
