Abstract

Treatment of 1,1′-(1,4-butylene)bis-1H-benzimidazole) (bbbi) with CoSO4·7H2O afforded a novel metal-organic polymer [Co(bbbi)1.5(SO4)]n (1), where the central Co(II) ions are bridged by bbbi ligands, leading to a two-dimensional layer with reversed triangular-prism shaped units. Each reversed triangular-prism shaped unit is made up of six bbbi ligands and six cobalt atoms. Thermal analysis revealed that polymer 1 was stable below 147 °C, and oxidized and decomposed to Co2O3 at about 787 °C, and to CoO at about 914 °C.
