A New 1D Chained Coordination Polymer: Synthesis, Crystal Structure, Antitumor Activity and Luminescent Property

A new 1D chained coordination polymer of Zn(II), {[Zn(L)2(4,4′-bipy)]·(H2O)}n(1) (HL = N-acetyl-l-phenylalanine; 4,4′-bipy = 4,4′-bipyridine) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and X-ray single crystal diffraction analysis. Theresults show that each asymmetric unit of Zn(II) complex belongs to monoclinic, space group P21 with a = 11.421(2) Å, b = 9.2213(17) Å, c = 15.188(3) Å,β = 106.112(3)°, V = 1536.7(5) Å3, Z = 2, Dc = 1.444 g·cm−3, µ = 0.857 mm−1, F(000) = 696, and final R1 = 0.0439, ωR2 = 0.1013. The molecules form one-dimensional chained structure by its the bridging 4,4′-bipyridine ligands. The antitumor activities and luminescent properties of Zn(II) coordination polymer have also been investigated
