Discrete molecular complex, one and two dimensional coordination polymer from cobalt, copper, zinc and (E)-4-hydroxy-3-((quinolin-8-ylimino)methyl)benzoic acid: Synthesis, structures and gas sensing property

Three variable dimensional coordination polymers, [Co(HL)2]NO3·3DMF, 1, {[Cu(L)(H2O)]·H2O}n, 2, and {[ZnL]·DMF}n, 3 have been synthesized. Compound 1 is a discrete mononuclear complex. Compound 2 consists of infinite one-dimensional zig-zag chains. Compound 3 is a two-dimensional coordination polymer. Compound 3 as a thin film on one side of double sided tap on the glass substrate show gas sensing property.81
