Chelating and Bridging Modes of Coordination by 1,3-Bis(pyrazol-1-yl)propane; Coexistence of Discrete and Polymeric Metallosupramolecular Isomers within the Same Crystal

Abstract
1,3-Bis(pyrazol-1-yl)propane (1) reacts with zinc acetate and cadmium nitrate to give tetrahedral [Zn(1)(OAc)2] and eight-coordinate [Cd(1)2(NO3)2] mononuclear complexes (2) and (3), respectively. Reaction with silver nitrate results in the formation of an intriguing complex (4) that consists of discrete M2L2 binuclear units stacked between [ML]n polymeric chains.
