Coordination compounds with a 4,4'-azobis(pyridine) (azpy) ligand, {[M2(azpy)6(H2O)5] x 4PF6 x azpy x H2O}n (M = Ni(II) (1) or Co(II) (2)) (0-dimensional (0-D) dimer), {[Zn(azpy)3(H2O)2] x 2PF6 x 2azpy x 4H2O}n (3) (1-dimensional (1-D) fishbone-type chain), {[Ag(azpy)] x PF6}n (4) (1-D linear chain), {[Mn(NCS)2(azpy)2] x azpy}n (5) (2-dimensional (2-D) grid sheet), and {[Ni(NCS)2(azpy)2] x 3toluene}n (6) (2-D grid sheet), were synthesized and structurally characterized. Compounds 1 and 2 have a 0-D dimer motif, in which one M(II) (M(II) = Ni(II) or Co(II)) coordination site is shared by unidentate azpy and H2O ligands, each with half-occupancy, i.e., exhibiting static disorder. Compounds 3 and 4 afford 1-D fishbone-type and 1-D linear chain motifs, respectively. Azpy mediates pi-pi and pi-p interactions between these low-dimensional structures. Compounds 5 and 6 possess a 2-D grid sheet motif. These sheets assemble to form microporous frameworks that incorporate aromatic guests, such as coordination-free azpy (5) and toluene (6). There exist not only pi-pi and pi-p interactions but also CH-pi interactions between the framework azpy ligands and guests. It should be noted that the azpy ligand is a good candidate for the construction of new assembling systems of coordination compounds through its aromatic interactions.
