Abstract

Two new linear silver(I) nitrate coordination polymers with bitopic ligand 1,1,2,2-tetra(pyrazol-1-yl)ethane were synthesized. Synthesized compounds were characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, powder X-ray diffraction and thermal analysis. Silver coordination polymers demonstrated a yellow emission near 500 nm upon excitation at 360 nm. Crystal structures of coordination polymers were determined and structural peculiarities are discussed. In both of the structures, silver ions are connected via bridging ligand molecules to form polymeric chains with a five-atomic environment. The coordination environment of the central atom corresponds to a distorted trigonal bipyramid with two N atoms of different ligands in apical positions. The Ag–N bond distances vary in a wide range of 2.31–2.62 Å, giving strongly distorted metallacycles. Thermolysis of coordination polymers in reductive atmosphere (H2/He) leads to the formation of silver nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution.

1. Introduction

Silver is one of the metal ions most commonly used for the construction of coordination polymers owing to its wide range of coordination numbers (2 to 7 [1]) and its ability to comply with ligand geometry [2,3,4,5]. Silver coordination polymers are receiving much attention because of their antimicrobial [6,7,8,9], anti-tumor [10] and luminescent properties [11]. Bitopic bis- and tris(pyrazol-1-yl)methane ligands have been used for the preparation of coordination polymers of various topologies [12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20]. However, the simplest possible bitopic ligand, -1,1,2,2-tetra(pyrazol-1-yl)ethane (Pz4), has not been examined so far as a building block for silver coordination polymers. Recently, we have prepared this ligand and have demonstrated its ability to form both discrete complexes and coordination polymers with copper(II) ions [21,22]. Wang et al. reported the potential antibacterial and antifungal activity of the Pz4 ligand [23]. Very recently, Dehury and coworkers reported the synthesis and crystal structure of catalytically active binuclear palladium(II) complexes with Pz4 and similar ligands [24], but no silver coordination compounds with Pz4 have been reported so far. Herein we report the first synthesis and structural characterization of two new linear silver-Pz4 coordination polymers.

2. Results and Discussion

2.1. Synthesis of Coordination Polymers

When the Pz4 ligand (Figure 1) reacted with silver nitrate in ethanol or dimethylformamide (DMF) solutions, with coordination of the metal-to-ligand ratios close to 1:1, polymers 1 and 2 formed as polycrystalline powders. Recrystallization of the precipitates from DMF gave single crystals suitable for X-ray structure determination.
Figure 1. Bitopic 1,1,2,2-tetra(pyrazol-1-yl)ethane ligand (Pz4).
An attempt to carry out the reaction in solvothermal conditions at temperatures above 100 °C resulted in degradation of the Pz4 ligand to smaller fragments (mostly pyrazole). This can be ascribed to the cleavage of C–C and C–N bonds catalyzed by Ag+ ions in solution; similar processes have been observed before in other silver(I)–azole ligand systems [25]. When the metal-to-ligand ratio was increased, the same products were formed instead of binuclear complexes, while the excess of silver was precipitated as metal powder.
It is interesting to note that in contrast to many silver complexes, crystals of 1 and 2 are stable towards light and atmosphere and could be stored for several weeks without any precautions.
The coordination polymers 1 and 2 were characterized by IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis, single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction methods.
The IR spectra of both compounds contain strong bands associated with ligands [26] and nitrate ion vibrations [27] (Figure S1). The patterns of the stretching and bending vibration bands of nitrate ions are somewhat different for compounds 1 and 2, indicative of a slightly different nitrate coordination mode. Bands of indicative vibrations and geometric criteria for the nitrate ion coordination mode [28] are given in Table 1. Geometric criteria obtained from single-crystal diffraction data (see Section 2.2) indicate a unidentate coordination mode for both of the compounds, although for compound 1 the criteria (l2-l1) and (A1-A2) are close to boundary values of 0.6 Å and 28° [28]. Separation between the asymmetric stretching bands (Δν3) is also greater for this compound, suggesting a nitrate coordination mode intermediate between unidentate and anisobidentate.

2.2. Crystal Structures

According to the single-crystal XRD data, the complexes {[Ag(µ2‑Pz4)(NO3)]DMF}n (1) and [{Ag(µ2‑Pz4)(NO3)}n] (2) are polymeric and contain one Ag+ and NO3 units and two halves of the Pz4 ligands in the independent part expanded by the inversion center. Crystallographic data for compounds 1 and 2 are given in Table 2.
Table 2. Crystallographic data for compounds 1 and 2.
The crystal structure of 1 contains crystallization DMF molecules. In both of the crystal structures, Ag+ ions are connected via bridging ligand molecules in a chelating manner to form linear polymeric chains (Figure 2). The metal centers are surrounded by four nitrogen atoms of Pz4 and one oxygen atom of NO3 ions, giving a coordination number of five.
Figure 2. Thermal ellipsoid plots of complexes 1 (a) and 2 (b) showing 50% probability ellipsoids; (c) Atom numbering for compounds 1 and 2 and rotational modes of the Pz4. Hydrogen atoms have been omitted for clarity.
In accordance with τ5 criteria [29] (Table 3), the silver coordination environment corresponds to a distorted trigonal bipyramid with two nitrogen atoms of different ligands in apical positions. The Ag–N bond distances vary in a wide range of 2.31–2.62 Å, giving strongly distorted metallacycles (Table 4), which is typical for Ag complexes in the five-atomic environment [30,31,32]. The bond distances of Pz4 in the complexes are very close and are in accordance with those in known compounds with this ligand [21,22]. At the same time, there are deformation possibilities of the ligand due to the rotation of the heterocycles along the C1–Nmn (m = 1, 2; n = 2, 4) bond in different structures (Table 5). While the torsion angles C1–C1’–Nmn–Nmn in copper(II) complexes fall within the 61°–72° range, those in silver(I) compounds are lying in the range of 50°–58°, which is in accordance with the increased ionic radius of Ag+ as compared with Cu2+. The twisting mode of the ligand along the C1–C1’ bond is permanent in all of the structures (the corresponding torsion angles Nmn–C1–C1’–Nmn fall within the 55°–63° range).

Table 4. Selected bond distances (Å) for the complexes 1 and 2.
Table 5. Torsion angles of ligand in copper(II) and silver(I) complexes with Pz4 ligand.
Although the overall geometries of the chains of the complexes are alike, there are some quantitative differences. In 1, the polymeric chain is less undulated than in 2: deviations of silver atoms from their least square lines (the chain lines) are 0.53 Å and 1.18 Å, correspondingly (Figure 3). Nevertheless, the minimum Ag···Ag distances are close, being 7.15 and 7.09 Å, respectively. The position of NO3 ions with respect to the chains is also different: in 1, the angle between the chain line and the normal line of the {NO3} plane is 72.0° and that in (2) is 18.6°. The packing of chains in 1 imitates the hexagonal packing of cylinders with each chain surrounded by two translational equivalent ones in the a direction and four ones related to the 21 axes. The packing of chains in 2 is closer to the tetragonal one (Figure 4) with each chain surrounded by four translational-related ones.

Figure 4. Packing patterns of the polymeric chains of the complexes 1 (a) and 2 (b).
The connectivity of the chains of the complexes 1 and 2 resembles that of known compound [Cu(Pz4)(NO3)2]n [21,22], with the exception of the additional coordinated NO3 ligand. Despite this, their geometries are principally different in the mutual orientation of the neighboring ligands. Silver complexes are approximately related with mirror symmetry, resulting in a U-shaped chain form, whereas in the copper complex an approximate inversion and V-shape of the chain are observed [22]. Noticeably, the packing of chains in 1 is closer to [Cu((Pz4)(NO3)2]n rather than 2.

2.3. Thermal and XRD Analyses

The thermal decomposition of complex 1 proceeds in two steps (Figure 5a). The first step is associated with the loss of solvate molecules that corresponds to 0.4 DMF molecules. The second step corresponds to the degradation of the polymer with the formation of silver nanoparticles and products of ligand destruction at 350 °C. Further thermolysis up to 800 °C leads to almost total destruction of these products, although silver nanoparticles still contain carbon traces. Thermal decomposition of 2 (Figure 5b) proceeds in one step, which is identical to the step of desolvated complex 1. The only difference is the smaller size of the silver nanoparticles formed.
Figure 5. Curves of thermal analysis in inert atmosphere for complexes 1 (a) and 2 (b).
The influence of the atmosphere and final temperature of thermolysis on the crystallite size of the products has been studied for complex 2 (Table 6). Thermolysis of 2 in a reductive atmosphere has shown that parameters such as the annealing time and final temperature do not significantly influence the crystallite size of formed Ag nanoparticles, while in a helium atmosphere such dependence exists. TG curves in H2/He at 400 °C have shown that mass loss for 2 is a few percent lower than that calculated for compound 2 (Figure 6). It indicates that the formation of amorphous carbon occurs in a reductive atmosphere, which was confirmed by elemental analysis.

Figure 6. Curves of thermal analysis in reductive atmosphere (7.2% H2/He) for complex 2. Points 1, 2 and 3 on the TG curve correspond to an annealing time of zero, three and ten hours.
The formation of amorphous carbon obviously has a great influence on the stabilization of formed silver nanoparticles and its crystallite size was always in the range of 9–21 nm. On the other hand, the size distribution for nanoparticles formed in the helium atmosphere was wider and reached 12–53 nm (Table 6).
The conformity of single crystals to synthesized bulk polycrystalline materials was established by comparison of experimental diffraction patterns with patterns calculated from single-crystal diffraction analysis data (Figure 7). The destruction of the polymer during 24 h synthesis was confirmed by XRD analysis.

The XRD analyses of complex 1 and 2 conducted after several weeks have shown them to be stable under regular conditions.

2.4. Solid-State Luminescence Studies

The emission properties of complex 2 were studied. In the solid state, the emission spectrum of 2 exhibits a broad band with a maximum at 500 nm, resulting in a yellow emission (Figure 8a). The spectrum is independent of the excitation wavelength in the region of 300–430 nm. Within this region, the broad band is revealed in the excitation spectrum with a maximum at 360 nm (Figure 8b). The data obtained motivate in-depth investigation of the photophysical properties of the Pz4 ligand and its transition metal complexes, which will be further carried out and reported separately.

3. Experimental Section

3.1. Materials and Methods

The starting reagents used for synthesis of coordination compounds-AgNO3 (chemical grade), dimethyl formamide (analytical grade), ethanol solution (95%, analytical grade) were used as received. Pz4 ligand (1,1,2,2-tetra(pyrazol-1-yl)ethane) was prepared as reported previously [33]. Elemental analyses were carried out on Eurovector EuroEA 3000 analyzer (Eurovector SPA, Redavalle, Italy). Infrared (IR) spectra of solid samples as KBr pellets were recorded on a FT-801 spectrometer (4000–550 cm−1) (Kailas OU, Tallin, Estonia). Single crystals for crystal structure determination of 1 and 2 were mounted in inert oil and transferred to the diffractometer.
Single-crystal XRD data for 1 were collected by a X8Apex Bruker-Nonius diffractometer (Bruker Corporation, Billerica, MA, USA) equipped with a 4K CCD area detector at 150(2) K and for 2 were collected by a Bruker Apex DUO diffractometer equipped with a 4KCCD area detector at 298(2)K using the graphite-monochromated MoKα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Å) (Bruker Corporation, Billerica, MA, USA). The φ- and ω-scan techniques were employed to measure intensities. Absorption corrections were applied with the use of the SADABS program [34]. The crystal structures were solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least squares techniques with the use of the SHELXTL package [35]. Atomic thermal displacement parameters for non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically. The positions of hydrogen atoms were calculated corresponding to their geometrical conditions and refined using the riding model.
Polycrystalline samples were studied in 2θ range 5°–60° on a DRON RM4 powder diffractometer equipped with a CuKα source (λ = 1.5418 Å) and graphite monochromator for the diffracted beam. Indexing of the diffraction patterns was done using data for compounds reported in the JCPDS-ICDD database [36] and WINFIT 1.2.1 [37] program, which allowed a calculation of the quantitative phase composition, the lattice parameters, and the crystallite size.
Thermal stability of coordination polymers was studied in inert (He) and oxidative (O2/Ar, 20%) atmospheres. Thermogravimetric measurements were carried out on a NETZSCH thermobalance TG 209 F1 Iris. Open Al2O3 crucibles were used (loads 5–10 mg, heating rate 10 K·min−1).
Excitation and emission spectra of complex 2 in the solid state were recorded using Fluorolog-3 FL3-22 spectrophotometer (Horiba Jobin Yvon, Edison, NJ, USA). The spectra were corrected for the wavelength-dependent sensitivity of the detection.

3.2. Synthesis of Compounds

3.2.1. Synthesis of {[Ag(µ2‑Pz4)(NO3)]·DMF}n (1)

A suspension of 29.4 mg Pz4 (0.1 mmol) in 5 mL of EtOH was added to 17.0 mg of AgNO3 (0.1 mmol) in glass vial. The mixture was stirred in the dark for 24 h at room temperature. During the first few hours of the synthesis initially undissolved needles of Pz4 disappear and colorless powder forms. The formed powder was then dissolved in 4 mL of DMF and left at room temperature in the dark. After three days colorless crystals formed at the bottom of the vial. They were filtered and washed twice with 4 mL of DMF and then dried on air for a few hours in the dark. The yield was 24.0 mg (45%). IR bands, cm−1: 1520 (Pz), 1390, 1294 (ν3), 1093 (ν1), 1051 (Pz), 770 (ν4). Elemental analysis: found, %: С 35.5, Н 3.2, N 26.8; calculated (AgC14H14N9O3·DMF), %: С 38.0, Н 3.9, N 26.1.

3.2.2. Synthesis of [{Ag(µ2‑Pz4)(NO3)}n] (2)

A suspension of 32.6 mg Pz4 (0.11 mmol) in 1 mL of DMF was added to 19.8 mg of AgNO3 (0.12 mmol) in glass vial. The mixture was stirred for 10 min at room temperature and then placed into an oven at 95 °C. After 8 h of heating the vial was allowed to cool to room temperature in the dark. After one day the crystals initially formed on the bottom increased in size. They were filtered and washed twice with 1 mL of DMF and then dried on air. The yield is 39.5 mg (77%). IR bands, cm−1: 1521 (Pz), 1393, 1309 (NO3, ν3), 1093 (NO3, ν1), 1054 (Pz), 755 (NO3, ν4). Elemental analysis: found, %: С 36.3, Н 3.0, N 27.4; calculated (AgC14H14N9O3), %: С 36.2, Н 3.0, N 27.2.

4. Conclusions

In summary, synthesis and structural peculiarities of two new linear light- and air-stable silver-Pz4 coordination polymers have been discussed. The investigation of the thermal properties of coordination polymers 1 and 2 revealed them to be stable up to 230 °C both in inert and oxidative atmospheres. The formation of silver nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution and the independence of particle size from thermolysis conditions demonstrate the possibility of using silver-Pz4 coordination polymers for the generation of carbon-coated silver nanoparticles.
