Abstract
Three new 3D metal-organic frameworks of lanthanum based on mixed anionic ligands, [(La(2)(pQ)(2)(BDC)(4))·4DMF](n), [(La(2)(pQ)(2)(DHBDC)(4))·4DMF](n), [(La(2)(CA)(2)(BDC)(4))·4DMF](n) (pQ-dianion of 2,5-dihydroxy-3,6-di-tert-butyl-para-quinone, CA-dianion of chloranilic acid, BDC-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate, DHBDC-2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate and DMF-N,N'-dimethylformamide), were synthesized using solvothermal methodology. Coordination polymers demonstrate the rare xah or 4,6T187 topology of a 3D framework. The homoleptic 2D-coordination polymer [(La(2)(pQ)(3))·4DMF](n) was obtained as a by-product in the course of synthetic procedure optimization. The thermal stability, spectral characteristics and porosity of coordination polymers were investigated.
