title: [Synthesis and crystal structure of a porous coordination polymer [Nd2 (C6H8O4)3 (H2O)2]n x n (4,4'-bpy)].
abstract: A novel porous coordination polymer [Nd2 (C6H8O4)3 (H2O)2]n x n (4,4'-bpy) was synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis reaction of hexyl acid, 4,4'-bpy with NdCl3 x XH2O. The structure was characterized by elemental analysis, thermal gravimetric analysis, IR spectroscopy, and X-ray single crystal analysis. The crystal data are of an orthorhombic crystal system, Pbcn space group. Crystallographic data are: a = 2.201 2 nm(6), b = 0.777 8 nm(2), c = 1.972 4 nm(5), alpha = beta = gamma = 90 degrees, V = 337.70 nm(15)3, Z = 4, D(c) = 1.796 g x cm(-3), mu = 3.108 mm(-1), F(000) = 1 800, R = 0.043 0 and wR2 = 0.056 0. X-ray analysis reveals that three-dimensional porous nets were formed between Nd3+ and Nd3+ by carboxyl of hexyl acid.
