title: Hydrothermal synthesis, structures, and magnetic properties of three novel 5-aminoisophthalic acid ligand bridged transition metal cation polymers.
abstract: Three novel 5-aminoisophthalic acid (AIP) bridged polymers [Co(C(8)NH(5)O(4))(H(2)O)](n)() (1), [Ni(C(8)NH(5)O(4))(H(2)O)(2)](n)() (2), and [Zn(C(8)NH(5)O(4))(H(2)O)](n)() (3) were synthesized by hydrothermal reactions and characterized by IR, Raman, elemental analysis, ESR, and magnetic measurements. X-ray single-crystal analyses were carried out for [Co(C(8)NH(5)O(4))(H(2)O)](n)() (1), which crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1 macro, with a = 6.477(1) A, b = 7.130(1) A, c = 9.826(2) A, alpha = 108.9(1) degrees, beta = 93.97(3) degrees, gamma = 98.82(3) degrees, and Z = 2; for [Ni(C(8)NH(5)O(4))(H(2)O)(2)](n)() (2), in the triclinic system, space group P1 macro, a = 6.425(1) A, b = 8.115(2) A, c = 10.146(2) A, alpha = 113.09(3)(o), beta = 99.64(3)(o), gamma = 98.90(3)(o), and Z = 2; and for [Zn(C(8)NH(5)O(4))(H(2)O)](n)() (3), in the monoclinic system, space group P2(1)/n, a = 9.044(1) A, b = 8.264(1) A, c = 11.646(1) A, beta = 100.77(1) degrees, and Z = 4. The single X-ray diffraction studies reveal that 1 consists of an infinite honeycomb layer formed by four crystallographically independent motifs packed alternatively together; 2 consists of an infinite neutral railroad-like linear polymer, and 3 consists of infinite layers of alternating four-coordinated Zn(II) cations and AIP ligands. Finally, they are all packed into beautiful three-dimensional frameworks through complicated hydrogen bonding. Antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic behaviors were observed for 1 and 2 from the magnetic measurements.
