Abstract

The extended-reach ligand 1, 4-bis (2-pyridylmethylsulfanylmethyl) benzene (L) was prepared by base coupling of 2-(chloromethyl) pyridinehydrochloride and 1, 4-bis (sulfanylmethyl) benzene. This new ligand was treated with metal connectors AgNO3, CuX (X= Cl, Br or I) and CuCl2 to give co-ordination polymers. The crystal structures of [Ag2 (L)(NO3) 2]∞,[Cu2 (L) I2]∞ and [Cu (L) Cl2]∞ were determined. Comparison of the ...
