Abstract
Silver(I)-based coordination polymers or metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) display useful antibacterial properties, whereby distinct materials with different bonding can afford control over the release of silver(I) ions. Such silver(I) materials are comprised of discrete secondary building units (SBUs), and typically formed with ligands possessing only soft or borderline donors. We postulated that a linker with four potential donor groups, comprising carboxylate and soft thioether donors, 2,5-bis (allylsulfanyl) benzene dicarboxylic acid (ASBDC), could be used to form stable, highly connected coordination polymers with silver(I). Here, we describe the synthesis of a new material, (Ag2(ASBDC)), which possesses a rod-like metal node-based 3D honeycomb structure, strongly π-stacked linkers, and steric bulk to protect the node. Due to the rod-like metal node and the blocking afforded by the ordered allyl groups, the material displays notable thermal and moisture stability. An interesting structural feature of (Ag2(ASBDC)) is contiguous Ag–S bonding, essentially a helical silver chalcogenide wire, which extends through the structure. These interesting structural features, coupled with the relative ease by which MOFs made with linear dicarboxylate linkers can be reticulated, suggests this may be a structure type worthy of further investigation.
