Abstract

A novel heterometallic coordination polymer, [AgGd(PDC)2]·2H2O (1) (H2PDC = pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid), have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions, and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, thermogravimetric analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 features an unusual three-dimensional network structure in which infinite gadolinium-carboxylate chains are linked by [Ag(PDC)2]3- metalloligands to form a mixed-metal coordination network. Moreover, the luminescent properties and magnetic properties of 1 have also been investigated.
