Two Zinc(II) Complexes Based on Trans-(1R,2R)-cyclohexanediamine: Molecular Structure Analyses and Preparation of Composite Membrane

Abstract

Two novel complexes Zn₂(chda)₂(TPA)Cl₂(1) and [Zn(chda)₂(H₂O)₂](TPA)(H₂O)₂(2)[chda is a chiral ligand of trans-(1R,2R)-cyclohexanediamine, H₂TPA is terephthalic acid] were synthesized at room temperature. The molecular structures of complexes 1 and 2 were identified by single-crystal X-ray diffraction measurement. The results showed that complex 1 had a binuclear structure, each Zn(II) ion was four coordinated by two N atoms of chda, one O atom of TPA and one Cl atom, to construct a distorted tetrahedral geometry. For complex 2, the Zn(II) ion was six coordinated by two chda molecules and two water molecules to form a ZnN₄O₂ octahedral geometry. Complexes 1 and 2 further extended into three-dimensional supramolecular frameworks by hydrogen-bonding interactions. Hirshfeld surface analysis and fingerprint plots were used to further analyze the contribution of different intermolecular interactions. Further, a composite membrane [Zn(chda)₂(H₂O)₂](TPA)(H₂O)₂/CA was prepared by adding 10%(mass fraction) of complex 2 into cellulose acetate using acetone/chloroform(V:V=1:1) as solvent.
