The synthesis, structure, and gas adsorption properties of three new metalorganic frameworks (MOFs) designed from isonicotinic acid (INA) and its fluorinated analogue 3-fluoroisonicotinic acid (FINA) along with CoII as the metal center have been reported. Co-INA-1 ([Co3(INA)4(O)(C2H5OH)3][NO3].C2H5OH.3?H2O; INA=isonicotinic acid) and Co-INA-2 ([Co(INA)2].DMF) are structural isomers as are Co-FINA-1 ([Co3(FINA)4(O)(C2H5OH)2].H2O; FINA=3-fluoroisonicotinic acid) and Co-FINA-2 ([Co(FINA)2].H2O), but the most important thing to note here is that Co-INA-1 and Co-FINA-1 are isostructural as are Co-INA-2 and Co-FINA-2. The effect of partial introduction of fluorine atoms into the framework on the gas uptake properties of MOFs having similar structures has been analyzed experimentally and computationally in isostructural MOFs.

Two mixed-ligand copper(II)-organic coordination compounds with 5,5{\textquoteright}-dimethyl-2,2{\textquoteright}-bipyridine (5,5{\textquoteright}-Me(2)bpy) as a primary ligand while aliphatic malonate (Hmal) and aromatic 2-hydroxynicotinate (2-OHNA) as secondary ligands, were synthesized. These complexes are formulated as: [Cu(Hmal)(5,5{\textquoteright}-Me(2)bPY)(H2O)](ClO4) 1 and [Cu-2(2-OHNA)(2)(5,5{\textquoteright}-Me(2)bpy)(2)(NO3)KNO3) 2. These two complexes were structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Characterization was further supported by powder X-ray diffraction analysis, elemental analyses, FT-IR, FAB-MASS and TGA, DSC studies. Cyclic voltammetric and UV-visible spectral studies of these two complexes have also been done. The electrochemical studies of complex 1 in DMSO and DMF have shown that this complex undergoes quasi reversible diffusion-controlled one-electron transfer reaction without any chemical complication while complex 2 in DMSO undergoes quasi-reversible diffusion-controlled one electron transfer reaction, following EC mechanism. The electrochemical behaviour of complex 2 in DMF is complicated probably due to presence of more than one species in solution phase. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
