Abstract

A new 1D cadmium coordination polymer [Cd(PhCOO)2(bbbm)]n (1) (bbbm = 1,1'-(1,4-butanediyl)bis-1H-benzimidazole ) is synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, TG, and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. Compound 1 crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P-1 with a = 10.4289(17) Å, b = 12.5198(9) Å, c = 12.6130(9) Å, α = 118.4260(10)°, β = 95.1990(10)°, γ = 94.3820(10)°, V = 1428.8(3) Å3, Z = 2. In the structure of 1, each cadmium center is six-coordinated in a strongly distorted octahedron by two N and four O atoms; an infinite one-dimensional linear chain was built by the flexible bbbm ligand that adopts a bis-monodentate bridging mode linking CdII atoms.
