Abstract

A horse-like picture drawn by hydrothermal reactions, and formed through the linkage of [Cu8IBr12]4- chains by the tetranuclear copper-hydroxo clusters [Cu 4(OH) 4(phen) 4] 4+ as the bridges. The hydrothermal reaction of CuBr 2, CuBr and 1,10-phen gives birth to a 2-D coordination polymer [Cu 4 II(OH) 4(1,10- phen) 4][Cu 8 IBr 12] (1), consisting of the unique [Cu8IBr12]4- chains linked by the stepped-cubane copper(II)-hydroxo clusters [Cu 4 II(OH) 4(phen) 4] 4+ as the bridges. Compound 1 possesses high thermal stable. The non-linear optical property of 1 was studied, and the compound exhibits the reverse saturable absorption (α 2 = 0.80 × 10 -11 m W -1) and self-defocusing performance (n 2 = -1.55 × 10 -18 m 2 W -1).
