摘要

A novel coordination polymer, {[Ni(bib)(3)](ClO4)(2)}(infinity) (1), was synthesized by the reaction of Ni(ClO4)(2)center dot 6H(2)O with a linear rigid ligand 1,4-bis(imidazol-1-yl)benzene (bib). In this complex, the homoleptic octahedral nickel(11) node is connected by the rod-like spacer bib into an alpha-Po framework with larger pcu lattices, which are seemingly surrounded by double walls. The void space provided by the square-shaped channel is filled with another equivalent framework, i.e. complex 1 representing a unique interpenetrating alpha-Po topology network. Furthermore, magnetic study shows that there exists very weak antiferromagnetic exchange coupling in the complex.
