hybrid borates, M(1,4-dab)[B5O7(OH)3] [M = Zn (1), Cd (2), 1,4-dab = 1,4-diaminobutane)]
and Co(1,3-dap)[B4O7] (3, 1,3-dap
= 1,3-diaminopropane), which integrated characteristics of 1D coordination
polymers and 1D/3D inorganic boron oxides have been obtained under
solvothermal conditions. Compounds 1 and 2 are isostructural and crystallize in a centrosymmetric space group P21/c; the 3D achiral structures
of 1 and 2 consist of the nonhelical Zn/Cd-1,4-dap
coordination polymers and 1D B–O chains. Compound 3 crystallizes in a chiral space group P43212; the helical Co-1,3-dap coordination polymer chains
are entrained within a 3D B–O network and finally form the
chiral framework. Compounds 1–3 represent
good examples of using coordination polymers to construct mixed-motif
inorganic–organic hybrid borates. Compounds 1 and 2 display blue luminescence when excited with UV light.
