The Synthesis and Structural Characterization of a Two-Dimensional Coordination Polymer [Co(H2O)(phen)(μ4-bta)1/2]n (H4bta = Benzenetetracarboxylic Acid)
Complex [Co(H2O)(phen)(μ4-bta)1/2]n was hydrothermally synthesized from sodium benzene-1,2,4,5-tetracarboxylate, 1,10-phenanthroline and CoCl2·6H2O, and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, showing that it possesses a novel two-dimensional polymeric structure.
