Abstract

Four metal complexes, namely [Cu2(ttzCOO)2(H 2O)4]·4H2O (1), [Zn2(ttzCOO) 2(H2O)6]·2H2O (2), [Pb(ttzCOO)(H2O)2]n (3), and {[Cd(ttzCOO)(H2O)]·1/2H2O}n (4), where ttzCOO2- = tetrazole-5-carboxylate dianion, have been prepared by the reaction of the sodium salt of 1H-tetrazole-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester in aqueous methanolic solution at room temperature with CuCl2, ZnI 2, Pb(NO3)2, or Cd(NO3)2, respectively. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, TG-DSC analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. While 1 and 2 are structurally similar dinuclear complexes, 3 and 4 exhibit a 1D chain structure and a 3D polymeric framework, respectively.
