Six new coordination compounds based on rigid 5-(3-carboxy-phenyl)-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid: synthesis, structural variations and properties

Abstract

Compounds <bold>1–6</bold> have rich structural chemistry ranging from mononuclear (<bold>1</bold> and <bold>2</bold>), one-dimensional (<bold>3</bold> and <bold>4</bold>), two-dimensional (<bold>5</bold>) to three-dimensional (<bold>6</bold>) structures.
