Abstract
Three structurally related cadmium coordination polymers CP1–CP3 {[Cd3(Pebpeb)2(L1)6] (CP1), [Cd3(Pebpeb)2(L2)6] (CP2) and [Cd6(Pebpeb)4(L3)12]·HL3 (CP3)} were constructed from the photoactive alkene ligand Pebpeb (Pebpeb = 4,4′-((1E,1′E)-(5-(pyridin-3-ylethynyl)-1,3-phenylene)bis(ethene-2,1-diyl))dipyridine; HL1 = 3-chlorobenzoic acid; HL2 = 3-nitrobenzoic acid; HL3 = 3-isopropyl benzoic acid) and Cd(II) ions in the presence of different auxiliary carboxylic acids. Different conformations of the functional olefinic ligand Pebpeb were observed in CP1–CP3 despite their similar 1D chain motif. [2 + 2] Solid-state photodimerization occurred when crystals of CP1–CP3 were irradiated with UV light (365 nm) and each displayed different photosalient (PS) responses attributed to the different bulkiness of the auxiliary carboxylic acids employed. A simple photoactuating device was prepared using a CP1-PVA (PVA = Polyvinyl Alcohol) composite.
