In this communication, three transition-metal [Ag(I), Cu(II) and Mn(II)] complexes based upon 4-([2,2′:6′,2′'-terpyridin]-4′-yl)benzoic acid (HL) were synthesized via solution and solvothermal methods, respectively. X-ray single-crystal diffraction analyses demonstrate that all complexes 1–3 are one-dimensional (1D) coordination polymers with abundant structural diversity, formulated as [AgL]_n (1), [CuLCl]_n⋅nH₂O (2) and [MnL₂]_n⋅nCH₃OH (3). They are a 1D linear chain 1 where the L^- ligand acts as the pentadentate N₃O₂-type bridging mode, a 1D square-wave-like chain 2 in which L^- serves as a tetradentate N₃O₁-type bridging ligand, and 1D dinuclear-based double-armed chain 3 where L^- adopts two kinds of coordination fashions namely pentadentate N₃O₂-type bridging and monodentate O₁-type ending. It is worth mentioning that the Ag(I) ion in 1 exhibits rare five-coordinate planar pentagon coordination geometry.

在这种交流中，基于4-（[[2,2'：6'，2''-pyridridin] -4'-yl苯甲酸（HL）分别通过溶液法和溶剂热法合成。透视单晶衍射分析表明，所有的复合物1 - 3是一维（1D）的配位聚合物具有丰富的结构多样性，配制成[AGL] _Ñ（1），[CuLCl] _Ñ ⋅nH ₂ O（2） [ MnL ₂ ] _n· nCH ₃ OH（3）。它们是一维线性链1将L ^-配体充当五齿Ñ ₃ ö ₂型桥接模式，一个样方波链1D 2，其中L ^-用作四齿ñ ₃ ö ₁型桥联配体，和1D双核为基础的双臂链3其中L ^-采用两种协调时装即五齿ñ ₃ ö ₂型桥接和单齿ö ₁型结束。值得一提的是，Ag（I）离子在1中表现出罕见的五坐标平面五边形配位几何。
