CRYSTAL STRUCTURE, SPECTROSCOPY, AND THEORETICAL CALCULATIONS OF TWO BIS(BENZIMIDAZOLYL)BUTANE DERIVATIVES
Two ligands for coordination compounds incorporating benzimidazole moieties, namely 1,1cbutane-1,4-diylbis(5,6-dimethyl-1H-benzimidazole) and 1,1c-butane-1,4-diylbis(1H-benzimidazole), are synthesized and then characterized both experimentally and theoretically. Their structures are studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and FT-IR spectroscopy. The optimized geometries, vibrational frequencies, vertical excitation energies of the two ligands are calculated using the (TD)DFT/B3LYP/TZVP method. The calculated results reproduce the experimental data. Additional bonding information about the coordinated N atoms in the two ligands is obtained by FMO and NBO analysis to investigate the substitutegroup effect on the coordination ability. The results confirm that the ligand with electrondonating methyl groups on the benzimidazole moieties has a stronger coordination ability.

A coordination polymer (CP), also called the metal organic framework (MOF), was first systematically
studied by Australian chemist R. Robson in around 1990 [ 1, 2 ]. <...> CP materials are potentially applied to gas adsorption and separation [ 3 ], molecular recognization
[ 4, 5 ], heterogeneous catalysis [ 6 ], electrical conduction [ 7 ], biomedical imaging [ 8, 9 ], and drug
delivery [ 10 ]. <...> The structure of a CP material is mainly determined by the coordination geometry of the bridging
ligands and highly directional metal-ligand coordination bonds. <...> Bis(benzimidazolyl)alkane derivatives
were widely used as bridging ligands to construct CP materials [ 14—16 ]. <...> Structures of (a) the ligand a and (b) the ligand b applications of benzimidazole have led us to investigate the coordination behaviour of different substituted benzimidazole derivatives with transition metal ions. <...> It is known that substituents bonded to the benzimidazole moiety could influence the electronic characteristics of the ring by either donating electrons or withdrawing electrons. <...> In this way, the coordination behavior of substituted benzimidazole could <...>
