Abstract

Uniform zinc-containing infinite coordination polymer (ICP) nanoparticles were achieved via a straightforward and rapid precipitation method in 5 min, from a bi-thioglycolate functionalized salpn ligand (salpn = N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-1,3-propanediamine) as linker and zinc acetate. Characterization of the resulting product was performed by CHN elemental analysis, inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, electron microscopies (FE-SEM and HR-TEM), and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Elemental analyses verified the proposed structure for the ICP with a 1 : 2 ratio of the salpn type ligand and Zn2+ ion. FE-SEM, TEM, and AFM analyses unveiled the existence of nanoparticles with diameters of ~30 nm. PL spectroscopy showed a blue shift in emission peak of the ICP with regards to the organic ligand. The obtained ICP was utilized as a precursor to synthesize ZnO nanoparticles with wurtzite structure. An increase in bandgap of the prepared ZnO nanoparticles was observed in comparison with bulk ZnO as a result of quantum confinement of photogenerated electron–hole pairs. This method can be exploited for the synthesis of other coordination polymer micro/nanostructures.
