We have reported several 1D, 2D and 3D coordination polymers based on diphosphinic acid (pcp= P,P'- diphenylmethylenediphosphate or pc2p= P,P'-diphenylethylenediphosphate) and in some cases we have described crystal- crystal transformation induced by temperature and by water [1]. For instance the Metal Organic NanoTube (MONT) [[Cu2(bpye)(pcp)2] 2.5H2O]n (bpye = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane)) is converted in the 1D slab[Cu2(bpye)(pc2p)2](H2O)]n in water while the isostructural MONT [[Cu2(bipy)(pcp)2] 5H2O]n (bipy = (4, 4' bi- pyridine)) remain unaltered.[2] In this work, we report the different behaviour, under heating, of three 1D coordination polymers, namely [Ni(H2O)4(bipy)opc2p]n, 1, [Ni(H2O)4(bpye)opc2p]n, 2, and [Ni(H2O)4(bpe)opc2p]n, 3 (bpe = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethene)). For 1, only an amorphous phase was obtained, while in case of 2 an anhydrous crystalline 3D coordination polymer was detected. Finally for 3, we have obtained a monohydrated [Ni(H2O)(bpe)pc2p]n and an anhydrous [Ni(bpe)pc2p]n phase. An interpretation based on the length of the bipyridine as well as on the role of supramolecular interactions will be given.

Abstract
We have reported several 1D, 2D and 3D coordination polymers based on diphosphinic acid (pcp= P,P'- diphenylmethylenediphosphate or pc2p= P,P'-diphenylethylenediphosphate) and in some cases we have described crystal- crystal transformation induced by temperature and by water [1]. For instance the Metal Organic NanoTube (MONT) [[Cu2(bpye)(pcp)2] 2.5H2O]n (bpye = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane)) is converted in the 1D slab[Cu2(bpye)(pc2p)2](H2O)]n in water while the isostructural MONT [[Cu2(bipy)(pcp)2] 5H2O]n (bipy = (4, 4' bi- pyridine)) remain unaltered.[2] In this work, we report the different behaviour, under heating, of three 1D coordination polymers, namely [Ni(H2O)4(bipy)opc2p]n, 1, [Ni(H2O)4(bpye)opc2p]n, 2, and [Ni(H2O)4(bpe)opc2p]n, 3 (bpe = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethene)). For 1, only an amorphous phase was obtained, while in case of 2 an anhydrous crystalline 3D coordination polymer was detected. Finally for 3, we have obtained a monohydrated [Ni(H2O)(bpe)pc2p]n and an anhydrous [Ni(bpe)pc2p]n phase. An interpretation based on the length of the bipyridine as well as on the role of supramolecular interactions will be given.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
