Hydrothermal reaction of ZnCl2, NCCH2CH2COONa and NaN3, in the absence/presence of auxiliary ligand 2,2'-bipy/4,4'-bipy, gave birth to three novel coordination polymers, namely, [Zn(tzp)](n) (1), [Zn-2(tzp)(N-3)(OH)(2,2'-bipy)](n) (2) and [Zn-2(tzp)(2)(4,4'-bipy)](n) (3) (H(2)tzp = 1H-tetrazolate-5-propionic acid). The tzp(2-) ligand was in situ generated through the [2 + 3] cycloaddition reaction of nitrile and azide, which was first untilized to synthesize coordination compounds. Polymer 1 behaves as a three-dimensional (3-D) network built up by the fusion of one-dimensional (1-D) pseudo-channels formed by the linkage of tzp(2-) ligands and tetrahedral Zn nodes. When the chelating 2,2'-bipy was introduced into the reaction system, a two-dimensional (2-D) puckered network 2 was constructed, where 1-D pseudo-channels, similar to those in 1, are bridged by azide ions in an end-on (EO) mode. Employment of the linear bridging 4,4'-bipy ligand as the auxiliary ligand resulted in the formation of an unusual 3-D polymer 3, where the connection of Zn and tzp(2-) produces a 2-D network, which are further joined by 4,4'-bipy. The tzp(2-) ligands in 1-3 show the flexible conformations and different coordination modes, with the tetrazolate group being the 1,4-N mode and the carboxylate group being the syn-anti, syn-syn and monodentate mode, respectively. The results suggest that the flexible nature of the tzp(2-) ligand as well as the introduction of auxiliary ligands is responsible for the formations of 1-3. Their photoluminescent properties and thermal stabilities have also been discussed.
