Structural Insights into New Bi(III) Coordination Polymers with Pyridine-2,3-Dicarboxylic Acid: Photoluminescence Properties and Anti- Helicobacter pylori Activity

Two novel coordination polymers, [Bi (2,3pydc) (2,3pydcH) (H O)] ( ) and {(Et NH) [Bi(2,3pydc)(2,3pydcH)Cl ]} ( ) were prepared using as a prolinker pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid (2,3pydcH ). The obtained complexes were fully characterized by elemental analysis, TG/DTG, FT-IR, solid-state photoluminescence, DFT calculations and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The obtained complexes crystallized in the triclinic -1 space group ( ) and comprise dimeric units with two crystallographically different Bi(III) centers (polyhedra: distorted pentagonal bipyramid and bicapped trigonal prism) and monoclinic 2 / space group ( ) with a distorted monocapped pentagonal bipyramid of Bi(III) center. The various coordination modes of bridging carboxylate ligands are responsible for the formation of 1D chains with ( ) and ( ) topology. The photoluminescence quantum yield for polymer is 8.36%, which makes it a good candidate for more specific studies towards Bi-based fluorescent materials. Moreover, it was detected that polymer is more than twice as active against as polymer . It can be concluded that there is an existing relationship between the structure and the antibacterial activity because the presence of chloride and triethylammonium ions in the structure of complex reduces the antibacterial activity.
