Abstract

Two novel three-dimensional cyano-bridged heteronuclear polymeric complexes, [Zn(ampy)(2)Ni(mu-CN)(2)(CN)(2)](n) (1) and [Cd(ampy)(2)Ni(mu-CN)(2)(CN)(2)]n (2), (ampy = 2-aminomethylpyridine or 2-picolylamine, C6H8N2 were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, thermal analyses (TG, DTG and DTA), elemental analyses and single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Vibration assignments were given for all the observed bands and the spectral feature also supported to the structure of polymeric complexes. The Ni(II) ion is four coordinate with four cyanide-carbon atoms in a square planar geometry and the Zn(II) or Cd(II) ion exhibits a distorted octahedral coordination by two bidentate ampy ligands and two bridging cyano groups as a cis position. In additional, there are also interaction between Ni(II) ion and the aromatic pi-system. The structures of 1 and 2 are similar and consist of 1-D zigzag chains which are linked via intermolecular hydrogen bonding, C-H center dot center dot center dot pi n and Ni(II)center dot center dot center dot pi it interactions to give rise to 3-D networks.
