An unprecedented 4d–4f heterometallic helix-based MMOF with
a new (3,4,5,6)-connected topology, {[Ln2Ag3(ina)6(ox)0.5(m2-
OH2)(H2O)2.5]$1.5H2O$2NO3}n, is presented, which consists of
coaxial bi-strand helices interconnected by the carboxyl groups of
the ligands. Selective anion-exchange functions of the title
compound containing NO3� counter anions were identified.
Microporous metal–organic frameworks (MMOFs) or microporous
coordination polymers (MPCPs) are of great current interest in view
of their fascinating structural topologies and potential applications in
small molecule gas storage, separation, ion exchange, catalysis, etc.,1
because the pore dimensions of the MMOFs typically fall in the range
of ultramicropores (<7 �A). However, most reports have so far
focused on the assembly of 3d block metals and organic ligands as
linkers,2 while many 3d–4f heterometallic MOFs have also been
reported.3 However, 4d–4f heterometallic MMOFs have received less
attention. The preparation of 4d–4f MMOFs has certain difficulties
because of the high coordination numbers of the 4f block metals,
which frequently leads to interpenetration and consequently results in
a decrease of the pore size which can result in non-porous materials.4
Therefore, the selection of the organic ligands becomes a key point in
the preparation of 4d–4f heterometallic MMOFs.
Isonicotinate (ina), the deprotonated form of isonicotinic acid
(Hina), is a rigid and linear ligand that can afford up to three donor
atoms (two O atoms and one N atom) with variable coordination
modes, and hence has a strong potential to construct highly ordered
dimensional structures and becomes an excellent candidate for the
construction of 4d–4f coordination polymers. In the past few years,
very few 4d–4f examples with porous structure constructed from
Hina ligand have been reported.5 Xue et al. reported the first exam-
ples of Ln–Ag supramolecular MOFs with approximately
nanometre-sized channels, owing to the addition of second ligand
(1,3-bdc).5a Xue et al. also reported another example of Ln–Ag
MOFs with approximate nanochannels by mixed connection of
isonicotinate ligand and nicotinate ligand.5b In our system, we chose
the ‘shorter’ and ‘smart’ organic ligand, oxalate as the second ligand,
which plays an important role in forming microporous metal–organic

frameworks. Up to now, rare 3d–4f or 4d–4f examples, which are
based on the ina and oxalate ligands have been reported with all of
them being non-porous.6
Notably, a large number of helical coordination polymers have
been known, but very few helix-based MOFs have been synthesized.7
Xu et al. reported the first single-metal helix-based MMOFs con-
structed from a single linker.6a Wang and Su et al. synthesized 3D
MOFs featuring nanosized tubular channel based on single-metal
and auxiliary ligand.7c To our knowledge, helix-based MMOFs
constructed from La(III)–Ag(I) heterometallic system have not been
reported. In addition, a variety of uninodal and binodal net topology
that are based on 3, 4, and 6-connected and boracite, pyrite, rutile,
Pt3O4, topologies have been realized.8 However, it is still a great
challenge to synthesize high-nodal mixed-connectivity 4d–4f hetero-
metallic coordination polymers. Herein, we report the first 4d–4f
heterometallic helix-based MMOF with new twelve-nodal
(3,4,5,6)-connected topology, {[Ln2Ag3(ina)6(ox)0.5(m2-OH2)(H2O)2.5]$
1.5H2O$2NO3}n.
On the other hand, as an important property of coordination
frameworks, anion exchange has attracted increasing attention in
recent years because it makes such frameworks potentially attractive
as anion exchange materials. In the past decade, many networks with
anion exchange based on Ag complexes have been reported.9 For
example, in 1996, Yaghi et al. reported a coordination framework,
[Ag(4,40-bpy)](NO3), which exchanged anions with PF6� in 95% yield
after 6 h. In the cases reported, the exchange generally occurs among
guest anion or coordinated anions but the latter is more difficult
because it involves the rupture of the coordinated bonds and
formation of the new bonds. So we report the first 4d–4f hetero-
pentametallic MMOF with partially selective anion exchanged
property.
The colourless crystals of 1 were obtained in good yield by the one-
pot hydrothermal reactions of Ln(NO3)3$6H2O, AgNO3, Hina,
K2C2O4$H2O.‡ Complex 1 crystallizes in space group P21/c and the
unit cell is a dimer lying about an inversion center with the linking
oxalate ligand.x The phase purity of complex 1 was confirmed by
elemental analysis and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) (ESI,
Fig. S1).†
An ORTEP view of 1 is shown in Fig. 1. The asymmetric unit of 1
contains two La(III) ions, three Ag(I) ions, six ina ligands, one-half
oxalate ligand, four coordinated water molecules, two lattice water
molecules and two free nitrate anions. The central La1 atom is nine-
coordinated with a distorted tricapped trigonal prismatic geometry:
one coordinated water molecule, two m2-OH2 oxygen atoms and six
carboxylate oxygen atoms, all of which are from four different ina
ligands [La1–O bond length range, 2.452(3)–2.888(4) �A]. The central

La2 atom adopts eight-coordinated with bicapped trigonal prismatic
coordination geometry: one coordinated water molecule, two oxygen
atoms from the oxalate ligand which lies about an inversion center,
and five carboxylate oxygen atoms which are from four different ina
ligands [La2–O bond distance range, 2.442(3)–2.596(3) �A]. Based on
the search of the Cambridge Structural Database, heterometallic
compounds that the central Ln(III) ions adopting two different modes
of eight and nine-coordinated have not been reported. The two-
coordinated Ag1 and Ag3 exhibit linear coordination geometry, and
the three-coordinated Ag2 is surrounded by two N-donor atoms
from the two ina ligands and one O atom from one coordinated
water molecule giving a T-shaped coordination geometry. The Ag–
Ow bond [2.530(8) �A] is shorter than other Ag–O coordinated bond,
and the N–Ag2–N angle [167.12(19)�] are similar to those found in
other Ag(I) complexes having T-shaped configurations. It should also
be noted that the adjacent Ag1/Ag3 and Ag2/Ag2 separation is
3.272 and 3.307 �A, respectively, which is less than the sum of the van
der Waals radii for two silver atoms (3.44 �A), thus showing one weak
argentophilic Ag/Ag interaction in the packing diagram. Mean-
while, the shortest distance Ag1/O17 (2.772 �A) is also less than the
sum of the van der Waals radii of Ag and O atoms (3.20 �A), indi-
cating the weak interaction between Ag and NO3�.
The oxalate dianion behaves as a m-k4 O bridge, connecting the
adjacent La2 ions into a zig-zag chain (ESI, Fig. S2).† The Hina
ligand exhibits two kinds of coordination modes: m3-(k3 N, O4: O4)-
bridging and m2-(k2 N, O4)-bridging (Scheme 1), forming bi-strand
helical chain through connecting the adjacent La1 ions with a pitch of
8.3694(5) �A (ESI, Fig. S3).† These two kinds of chains further extend
to 2D La(III)-carboxylate layer by connections of bidentate Hina
ligands (Fig. 2). From the view of the c-axis, the 2D layer presents
paddle-wheel structure and the two kinds of chains alternately exist.
(ESI, Fig. S4).† It should be noted that the 2D La(III)–carboxylate
layer is not a smooth plane but essentially a chair-like layer (ESI,
Scheme 1 The coordination modes of Hina ligand.
This journal is ª The Royal Society of Chemistry 2010
Fig. S5).† In the packing arrangement of layers, ‘linear’ N–Ag–N
linkages play an important role in connecting the adjacent layers,
forming 3D pillared-layer coordination polymer with microporous
structure (Fig. 3). The water molecule of solvation also gives O–H/O hydrogen-bonding interactions with oxalate and isonicotinate O
acceptors. The remaining free voids are partially filled with free water
molecules and nitrate anions. Calculations using PLATON10 based
on the crystal structure show that the total solvent-accessible volume
comprises 11.7% of the crystal volume. Topological studies
performed using the software package TOPOS 4.011 reveal that this
topology is a unique twelve-nodal (3,4,5,6)-connected net, as
confirmed by TOPOS 4.0 in conjunction with systematic searches in
the literature. It’s Schl€afli symbol is (3$4$52$6$7)(3$4$63$7)(3$52$
64$72$8)(3$52$65$75$82)(32$42$57$64)(4$5$6)(4$52)(4$62)2(42$54$62$75$
82)(43$68$72$82)(52$6).
The practical application of MMOF is dominated by thermal
stabilities, so TG and PXRD analysis were performed to examine the
permanent porosity of the MMOF 1. The TGA curve for 1 indicates
that the loss of the lattice water molecules occurred in the temperature
range 50–150 �C (found, 2.02%; calculated, 1.69%, ESI, Fig. S6).†
The complex begins to decompose at 300 �C. Variable-temperature
PXRD patterns reveals that the framework integrity of 1 is main-
tained after the removal of the water molecules and can stable up to
about 280–300 �C, which is in agreement with the TG analysis (ESI,
Fig. S7).†

The photoluminescent property of 1 was investigated in the solid
state at room temperature. But we didn’t observe the distinctly
luminescence property of 1, the probable reasons are from two sides:
the 4f shell of La(III) ion is empty and the intermolecular and intra-
molecular charge transfer between the ligands and Ag(I) ion is
inefficient (ESI, Fig. S8).†
As revealed by the crystal structure of 1, the anions NO3� were
located within the open structure. Since the complex 1 is not fully
soluble in common solvents, this cationic layered complex is expected
to display anion-exchange property. Excess Na2SO4 was added to
a suspension of well-ground complex 1 in water at room temperature.
The mixture was stirred for 24 h to allow anion exchange, then it was
filtered, and washed with water several times. The IR spectra of the
exchanged solid and the original 1 are shown in the ESI, Fig. S9.†
Intense bands from 1100 to 1160 cm�1, which originate from the
SO42� ion, appeared, while the intense band of the NO3
� ion is still
exists in the spectra of the exchanged solid. The anion-exchange
reactions were also monitored by X-ray powder diffraction tech-
niques (ESI, Fig. S10).† When complex 1 was exchanged with
Na2SO4, the characteristic peaks were different from those of original
1. The slight shift and extension of some peaks may be attributed to
incomplete recovery of the symmetry of the structure.12 The results
confirm that the anion exchange occurs without the destruction of the
frameworks. The anion exchanged products are also evidenced by
elemental analysis (see the ESI).† We also try to prove that such
anion exchange occur by means of a solid-state or a solvent-mediated
process, but convincing results were not obtained by NMR analysis.
Moreover, the anion exchange of 1 was found to be highly selective in
water phase, only the exchange of NO3� by SO4
2� was achieved,
whereas anion exchanges of NO3� with ClO4
�, SO32�, PF6
�, and
WO4� proved unsuccessful and the frameworks decomposed which
were evidenced by the IR spectra.
In summary, we report a novel 3D 4d–4f heterometallic micro-
porous coordination polymer with pillared helical-layer and unique
mixed connected topology structure. The luminescent property is
investigated, together with the interesting selective anion-exchanged
properties. The results presented herein indicate that the method of
one-pot synthesis provides an applicable way of constructing heter-
ometallic MMOF, and mixed organic ligands can be used as struc-
ture-directing agents to form heteropolymetallic complexes.
