Article Description

Postsynthetic metalation of a uranyl isonicotinate starting material (UICP) with Ag(I) and Cu(II) under hydrothermal conditions has yielded two new coordination polymers: (UO)(OH)(CHNO )Ag (1) and (UO)(O)(OH)(C HNO)Cu(OH)Cl (2). The Ag(I) in 1 directly replaces a proton in UICP and thus generates a similar topology. Compound 2, however, is formed by a topological rearrangement of the starting material upon metalation. Comparison of postsynthetic metalation and direct assembly reveals that compound 1 may be synthesized via both methods, whereas 2 was only be prepared by the former. Attempts to prepare 2 via direct assembly yielded (UO)(OH)(C HNO)Cu(C HNO)(OH) (3). Use of postsynthetic metalation has proven to be a route to bimetallic uranyl-bearing coordination polymers and may yield materials otherwise inaccessible via direct assembly. © 2014 American Chemical Society.
