2D and 3D Coordination Networks of Polynuclear Bismuth Oxido/Hydroxido Sulfonato Clusters from Low Temperature Solid-State Metathesis Reactions.

Solid-state metathesis (SSM) reactions between Bi(NO3 )3 ⋅5 H2 O and potassium benzene-1,2-disulfonate (=1,2-BDSK2 ), sodium benzene-1,3-disulfonate (=1,3-BDSNa2 ) allows access to the first 2D, {[Bi6 O4 (OH)4 (1-2BDS)2 (NO3 )2 ⋅4 H2 O]⋅11 H2 O}∞ and {[Bi22 O24 (OH)6 (1,3-BDS)6 ⋅12 DMSO]⋅3 DMSO⋅4 H2 O}∞ , and 3D, {[Bi6 O4 (OH)4 (1,3-BDS)3 ⋅4 H2 O]⋅6 H2 O}∞ , polymeric networks of sulfonato encapsulated polynuclear bismuth oxido/hydroxido clusters.
