Hydrothermal synthesis of organic-inorganic hybrid materials: Network structures of the bimetallic oxides [M(Hdpa)(2)V4O12] (M = Co, Ni, dpa=4,4 '-dipyridylamine)
The hydrothermal reactions of MCl2. 6H(2)O (M = Co, Ni) NaVO3, 4,4'-dipyridylamine (dpa), and H2O yield materials of the type [M(Hdpa)(2)V4O12] (M = Co (1), Ni (2)). The two-dimensional structures of 1 and 2 are constructed from bimetallic oxide networks (MV4O12)(n)(2n-) With monodentate Hdpa(dagger) projecting the protonated ring into the interlamellar region. The oxide network may be described as ruffled chains of corner-sharing {VO4} tetrahedra linked by {NiO4N2} octahedra into the two-dimensional assembly.
