Two novel coordination polymers [Cd（NiL）（aipt）]（1） and [Mn（nipt）（NiL）2]？H2O（2）（NiL, H2L=2,3-dioxo- 5,6,14,15-dibenzo-1,4,8,12-tetraazacyclo-pentadeca-7,13-dien, H2aipt=5-aminoisophthalic acid, H2nipt=5-nitroisoph- thalic acid） were hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 1 and 2 consist of different 1D chains including both oxamide and 5-aminoisophthalate or 5-nitroisophthalic bridge. And all these chains were further interlinked via hydrogen bonds, resulting in a 2D architecture in compounds 1 and 2.
BiOCl nanostructures including microspheres,microflowers,microplates,and nanoplates,have been synthesized by a simple solvothermal method using bismuth nitrate and sodium chloride as raw materials without adding any additives.Structure and morphology of the products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscopy,and transmission electron microscopy.The results indicated that the as-prepared microspheres and microflowers were composed of nanosheets.Although with different shape and lateral size,the nanoplates and microplales were all single-crystalline plates with exposed {001） facets.It was found that the volume ratio of polyethylene glycol 400 and H_2O in the solvent played a key role in the morphology of the products,and the possible growth mechanism was also discussed.The photocatalytic measurements indicated that the BiOCl samples exhibit good photocatalytic properties towards Rhodamine B.
