Abstract

Two complexes, Co(Hbim)2(NCS)2(Hbim=benzimidazole)(1) and [Cu(Hbzt)SCN]n(Hbzt=benzothiazole) (2) were synthesized by the same synthesis method and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy(IR), thermogravimetric analysis(TGA), X-ray powder diffraction(XRPD) and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The results from the single-crystal X-ray diffraction indicate that complex 1 is zero-dimensional(0D) framework and complex 2 is 2-dimensional(2D) framework. In complex 2, the 3-dimensional(3D) supermolecular architecture was built up by means of π-π stacking interaction, and two helical chains existed in its structure. The luminescence properties and the magnetic properties of the two complexes were investigated.
