    Abstract:
    Three photoluminescent complexes containing either ZnII or CdII have been synthesized and their structures determined. Bis[4-amino-3,5-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole-κ2N1,N5]bis(dicyanamido-κN1)zinc(II), [Zn(C12H10N6)2(C2N3)2], (I), bis[4-amino-3,5-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole-κ2N1,N5]bis(dicyanamido-κN1)cadmium(II), [Cd(C12H10N6)2(C2N3)2], (II), and bis[4-amino-3,5-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole-κ2N1,N5]bis(tricyanomethanido-κN1)cadmium(II), [Cd(C12H10N6)2(C4N3)2], (III), all crystallize in the space group P-1, with the metal centres lying on centres of inversion, but neither analogues (I) and (II) nor CdII complexes (II) and (III) are isomorphous. A combination of N-H...N and C-H...N hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking interactions generates three-dimensional framework structures in (I) and (II), and a sheet structure in (III). The photoluminescence spectra of (I)-(III) indicate that the energies of the π-π* transitions in the coordinated triazole ligand are modified by minor changes of the ligand geometry associated with coordination to the metal centres.
