Abstract

Reactions of different metal salts with 3-pyridin-4-yl-benzoic acid (3,4-Hpybz) under ambient condition afford a series of 3-D metal-organic frameworks with two new types of (3,6)-connected net topologies. In the isomorphic complexes [M2(μ-H2O)(3,4-pybz)4]n (MII=MnII for 1, ZnII for 2, or CdII for 3), the octahedral metal nodes are extended by the 3-connected pybz tectons to constitute 3-D arrays with the Schläfli symbol of (3.4.5)(32.44.55.62.72), whereas [Pb(3,4-pybz)2]n (4) shows a completely different 3-D (42.6)2(44.62.89) framework, which represents a subnet of the (4,8)-connected fluorite lattice.
