Les nanoparticules d'or de petite taille (< 5 nm) sont des matériaux qui présentent une bonne activité catalytique dans des réactions d'oxydation, et ce dans des conditions relativement douces. Cependant, il est difficile d'obtenir des nanoparticules monodisperses et de taille inférieure à 5 nm. En ce sens, les clusters d'or sont intéressants, car ce sont des composés atomiquement définis avec une formulation propre. Cela signifie que dans un cluster, le nombre d'atomes d'or et de ligands le stabilisant est déterminé. Comme ils peuvent être isolés purs, ils constituent donc une classe de nanoparticules parfaitement monodisperses. Nous nous sommes intéressés, dans le cadre de cette thèse, à la synthèse de clusters d'or et à leur assemblage afin d'avoir des catalyseurs atomiquement définis. Les nanoparticules d'or sont souvent utilisées après dépôt sur un support, résultant en la perte de surface accessible. Nous voulons donc utiliser ces clusters (i) comme espèces moléculaires déposées sur un support et (ii) comme briques moléculaires pour l'assemblage de réseaux tridimensionnels où la porosité permettrait la diffusion des réactifs/produits pour s'affranchir des effets de supports. Notre étude porte donc sur la synthèse de clusters d'or et nous nous sommes également intéressés aux polymères de coordination d'or (I), un intermédiaire de réaction important dans la synthèse de clusters et à ses propriétés photophysiques. Afin d'avoir des clusters avec une fonction externe permettant de les assembler ou de les déposer sur un support, nous avons développé une nouvelle voie de synthèse de clusters stabilisés par des ligands de type thiophénolates para-substitués. Nous avons ainsi isolé de nouveaux clusters stabilisés par des ligands hétérotopiques comme [Au25(SPh-pNH2)17]. Ces composés ont ensuite été déposés sur un support mésoporeux (SBA-15) et utilisés comme catalyseurs dans différentes réactions d'oxydation. Nos résultats montrent que les clusters d'or sont donc des précurseurs moléculaires permettant de préparer des catalyseurs efficaces, ayant une petite taille de particules (1-2 nm) et présentant des activités catalytiques très élevées comparativement aux matériaux de référence / Small gold nanoparticles (< 5 nm) are materials presenting a good catalytic activity in oxidations reactions, especially under soft conditions of temperature and pressure. However, it can be difficult to obtain monodisperse particles with a diameter less than 5 nm. In this sense, gold clusters are interesting, because they are atomically defined compounds, presenting a proper formulation. This means that the number of gold atoms and of stabilizers in the clusters are defined and, as they can be isolated pure, they constitue a novel class of perfectly monodisperse nanomaterials. Therefore, we are interested, in this thesis, in the synthesis and assembly of gold clusters. Indeed, gold nanoparticles are usually deposited on a support, resulting in the loss of accessible area. We therefore wanted to use gold clusters as (i) molecular species deposited on a support and (ii) as building blocks to assemble and organize tridimensional networks where the porosity permits the substrates/products diffusions and avoid the support effects. Our study deals with the synthesis of gold clusters, and we are also interested in the gold (I) coordination polymers, which are important reaction intermediates formed during the clusters synthesis and to its photophysical properties. In order to have clusters presenting external functions enabling their assembly or deposition on a support, we developed a novel synthesis suitable for para-substituted thiophenolates. We managed to isolate new clusters stabilized by heterotopic ligands such as [Au25(SPh-pNH2)17]. Those compounds have been deposited on a mesoporous support and used as oxidative catalysts. Our results show that gold clusters are molecular precursors that permit to prepare effective catalysts with narrow particle size (1-2 nm) and presenting high catalytic activity compared to the one exhibited by reference materials

Les polymères de coordination décrits dans cette thèse ont été préparés en accord avec les concepts de la chimie verte par réactions dans l’eau entre les sels de sodium des ligands et les ions lanthanides compris entre La et Lu (sauf Pm) plus Y. Deux types d’échantillons ont été préparés : des monocristaux et des poudres microcristallines. Les structures cristallines ont été résolues sur la base des monocristaux et les poudres microcristallines ont été utilisées pour étudier les propriétés physicochimiques des composés : stabilité thermique, propriétés de luminescence et de magnétisme. Dans nos travaux, quatre systèmes de polymères de coordination ont été étudiés. Ils ont été obtenus à partir de quatre acides : acide chelidonique (H2cda), acide 5-hydroxy-isophthalique (H2hip), acide 5-nitroisophthalique (H2nip) et acide 4-carboxyphenylboronique (Hcpb). Dix nouveaux monocristaux ont été obtenus par diffusions lentes en tubes en U à travers des gels physique (Agar) ou chimiques (TMOS ou TEOS), par diffusion lente en tubes en H à travers de l’eau distillée ou par évaporation lente du filtrat obtenu après la synthèse des poudres microcristallines. Les poudres microcristallines ont été classées sur la base de leurs diagrammes de diffraction des rayons-X. Leurs propriétés de luminescence ou de magnétisme ont été étudiées à l’état solide. Les transferts d’énergie intermétalliques ont été discutés, en particulier pour les ligands H2hip et Hcpb. Les composés hétéro-nucléaires (Gd / Tb et Eu / Tb) ont été préparés pour moduler les propriétés luminescentes de ces composés en variant les proportions relatives en ions lanthanides. Les polymères de coordination à base de terres rares synthétisés et étudiés dans ce manuscrit fournissent des informations intéressantes pour la conception future de matériaux multifonctionnels. / According to the concepts of Green Chemistry, the coordination polymers based on lanthanide ions were prepared by reactions in water between the sodium salts of ligands and lanthanide ions comprised between La and Lu (except Pm) plus Y. Two kinds of samples were prepared : single crystals and microcrystalline powders. The former ones are used to determine the single crystal structure, and the later ones are used to measure the physical-chemical properties : thermal stability, luminescence and magnetism properties. In our work, four ligands were explored: chelidonic acid (H2cda), 5-hydroxy-isophthalic acid (H2hip), 5-nitroisophthalic acid (H2nip) and 4-carboxyphenylboronic acid (Hcpb). As a result, 10 new single crystals were obtained by slow diffusion in U-shape tubes through physical gel (agar) or chemical gels (TMOS or TEOS), by slow diffusion in H-shape tubes through distilled water or by evaporation of the filtrate obtained after the synthesis of the microcrystalline powders. Microcrystalline powders were classified on the basis of their X-ray powder diffraction patterns. Their luminescent properties and magnetic properties were studied in the solid state. Intermetallic energy transfers were also discussed. Especially, for ligands H2hip and H2cpb. Hetero-nuclear compounds (Gd/Tb and Eu/Tb) were also prepared to tune luminescent properties by changing the relative ratios of the lanthanide ions. Lanthanide coordination polymers described in this thesis provide information that could be useful as far as multifunctional materials are targeted.

The coconut (Cocos nucifera L) is a rich source of nutrient and as well as other plants is under attack from different types of pests and diseases, causing losses to producers. Pesticide use remains the primary control strategy and combat pests and diseases in agricultural crops. However, the excessive and indiscriminate use of these products can cause serious harm to human health and the environment due to the high toxicity these products. In Brazil, until now no stipulated values of maximum residue limits (MRLs) for pesticides in coconut crops. Similarly, there is little information about the degree of contamination. Therefore analytical methodologies must be developed for the determination of pesticide residues in coconut cultivation, aiming to ensure human health. Thus, this work proposes a methodology to determine residue of bromopropylate, clofentezine, coumaphos, difenoxuron, diniconazole, fenvalerate, flumetralin, flumeturon, teflubenzuron in greens stipe, appling the matrix solid phase dispersion (MSPD) and liquid chromatography with diode array detector (LC-DAD) for analysis. In this study we evaluated the best sorbent/solvent combinations (using silica, Florisil, neutral alumina, C18 and coordination polymers [Zn(BDC)(H2O)2]n, [Zn(BDC)0.99(NH2-BDC)0.01)(H2O)2]n, [Zn(BDC)0.95(NH2-BDC)0.05)(H2O)2]n, [Zn(BDC)0.90(NH2-BDC)0.10)(H2O)2]n/acetonitrile), the best ratio of sample/ adsorbent mass, as volume of the elution solvent used for extraction were evaluated. Among the investigated combinations, the system comprising 0.25 g of stem, 1 g of neutral alumina and 5 mL of acetonitrile was the most efficient in recovery resulting from 70 and 93%, with relative standard between 1.6% and 10%, in the levels of concentration 0.04, 0.08, 0.2, 0.4, 2.0, 3.0; 4.0 ìg g-1. The linearity was above 0.9991 and the limits of detection between 0.01 and 0.05 ìg g-1 and quantification 0.05 and 0.2 ìg g-1. Among the polymeric phases, the [Zn(NH2BDC)0.1(BDC)0.9(H2O)2]n was most eficiente in the extraction of bromopropylate, clofentezine, coumaphos, difenoxuron, diniconazole, fenvalerate, flumetralin, flumeturon and teflubenzuron. / O coqueiro (Cocos nucifera L.) e uma rica fonte de nutrientes e, assim como outras plantas e alvo de ataque de diferentes tipos de pragas e doencas, causando prejuizos aos produtores. O uso de pesticidas continua sendo a principal estrategia de controle e combate de pragas e doencas nas plantacoes agricolas. No entanto, o uso excessivo e indiscriminado desses produtos podem ocasionar serios danos a saude humana e ao ambiente, devido a elevada toxicidade desses produtos. No Brasil, ate o momento, nao ha valores estipulados de limites maximos de residuos (LMR) para pesticidas na cocoicultura. Do mesmo modo, ha pouca informacao quanto ao grau de contaminacao. Portanto metodologias analiticas tem de ser desenvolvidas para determinacao de residuos de pesticidas na cultura de coqueiro, com intuito de assegura essencialmente a saude humana. Nesse sentido, esse trabalho propoe uma metodologia que determine residuo de bromopropilato, clofentezina, cumafos, difenoxurom, diniconazol, fenvalerato, flumetralina, flumeturom, teflubenzurom em estipe de coqueiro, fazendo uso da tecnica de DMFS para extracao e CL-DAD para analise. Nesse estudo foram avaliados as melhores combinacoes sorvente/solvente (utilizando silica gel, Florisil, alumina neutra, C18, e polimeros de coordenacao [Zn(BDC)(H2O)2]n, [Zn(BDC)0,99(NH2-BDC)0,01)(H2O)2]n, [Zn(BDC)0,95(NH2-BDC)0,05)(H2O)2]n, [Zn(BDC)0,90(NH2-BDC)0,10)(H2O)2]n/acetonitrila). Avaliou-se a melhor relacao de massa amostra/adsorvente, alem do volume do solvente de eluicao utilizado para extracao. Dentre as combinacoes avaliadas, o sistema constituido de 0,25 g de estipe, 1 g de alumina neutra e 5 mL de acetonitrila foi o mais eficiente resultando em recuperacao entre 70 e 93% com precisao entre 1,6% e 10% nos niveis de concentracao 0,04, 0,08, 0,2, 0,4, 2,0, 3,0; 4,0 Êg g-1. As linearidades foram acima de 0,9991 e os limites de deteccao foram entre 0,01 e 0,05 Êg g-1 e de quantificacao entre 0,05 e 0,2 Êg g-1. Entre as fases polimericas estudadas, o [Zn(NH2BDC)0,1(BDC)0,9(H2O)2]n foi o mais eficiente na recuperacao de bromopropilato, clofentezina, cumafos, difenoxurom, diniconazol, fenvalerato, flumetralina, flumeturom e teflubenzurom.

Vorgestellt werden die gezielte mechanochemische sowie die fluorolytische Sol-Gel-Synthese von fluorierten Koordinationspolymeren mit dem Strukturmotiv einer direkten Metall-Fluor Bindung. Im Vorfeld beschränkten sich die mechanochemischen Synthesen von fluorierten Koordinationspolymeren (FCPs) darauf, Fluor über den organischen Linker im Netzwerk zu integrieren. Auch fehlten Studien, welche die Materialeigenschaften bezüglich der unterschiedlichen Fluorpositionen miteinander verglichen. Es wird die erste mechanochemische Synthese eines Koordinationspolymers mit einer direkten Metall-Fluorid-Bindung (Bariumterephthalatfluorid (BaF(p-BDC)0,5)) vorgestellt. Auch das Strontiumacetatfluorid (SrF(CH3COO)), Bariumacetatfluorid (BaF(CH3COO)) und das Bleiacetatfluorid (PbF(CH3COO) konnten durch unterschiedliche Synthesemethoden dargestellt werden. Die Kristallstrukturen wurden aus den Röntgenpulverdiffraktogrammen bestimmt. Unterstützt werden die Strukturlösungen u. a. durch die chemische Verschiebung in den 19F-MAS-NMR-Spektren, aus denen die Metall-Fluor-Abstände berechnet und mit denen aus den Kristallstrukturen verglichen wurden. Die vorgestellten Koordinationspolymere vervollständigen die Reihe der Verbindungen, welche aus Linkern mit gleichem Kohlenstoffskelett, gleichem Metallkation und ähnlicher chemischer Zusammensetzung, jedoch unterschiedlichen Fluorpositionen bestehen. Die gewählten Koordinationspolymere erlaubten damit den Vergleich der thermischen Stabilität, des Wasserabsorptionsverhaltens, sowie die Acidität der sauren Zentren an der Oberfläche bzgl. der unterschiedlichen Bindungsmotive des Fluors. In Abhängigkeit von der Fluorposition zeigen die Lanthanoid-dotierten Koordinationspolymere unterschiedlich lange Lebenszeiten der angeregten Zustände. Durch das Strukturmotiv der direkten Metall-Fluor-Bindung kann die Abklingzeit der angeregten Zustände des angeregten Lanthanoids deutlich verlängert werden. / The targeted mechanochemical and fluorolytic sol-gel synthesis of fluorinated coordination polymers with the structural motif of a direct metal-fluorine bond are presented. Previously, the mechanochemical syntheses of fluorinated coordination polymers (FCPs) were limited to integrating fluorine into the network via the organic linker. There were also no studies comparing the material properties of the different fluorine positions.The first mechanochemical synthesis of a coordination polymer with a direct metal fluorine bond (barium terephthalate fluoride (BaF(p-BDC)0.5)) is presented. Also the strontium acetate fluoride (SrF(CH3COO)), barium acetate fluoride (BaF(CH3COO)) and lead acetate fluoride (PbF(CH3COO)) can be obtained by different synthesis methods. The crystal structures were determined from the X-ray diffractograms. The structural solutions are supported, among other things, by the chemical shift in the 19F MAS NMR spectra, from which the metal-fluorine distances were calculated and compared with those from the crystal structures. The coordination polymers presented complete the series of compounds consisting of linkers with the same carbon skeleton, the same metal cation and similar chemical composition, but different fluorine positions. The selected coordination polymers thus allowed the comparison of thermal stability, water absorption behaviour and acidity of the acid centres on the surface with respect to the different bonding motives of the fluorine. Depending on the fluorine position, the lanthanide doped coordination polymers show different lifetimes of the excited states. Due to the structural motif of the direct metal-fluorine bond, the decay time of the excited states of the excited lanthanidecan be significantly extended.

The present thesis provides a systematic investigation of coordination polymers of 3d, rare-earth (4f) and main group element (Bi) using both rigid aromatic, flexible aliphatic linkers. Luminescent sensing behavior towards nitro aromatics, metal ions and ferroelectric behavior have been investigated using some of the prepared compounds. The possible usefulness of lone pair on the structure has been investigated using bismuth based coordination polymers. The thermal and optical behavior of lanthanide coordination polymers (Ce, Pr and Nd) have also been studied. Chapter 1 An Overview of Coordination Polymer (CP) Compounds This chapter presents a brief introduction to coordination polymer (CP) compounds. Starting from the brief historical background on coordination compounds, this chapter shed light on some earlier developments in this family of compounds by Yaghi, Robson and others. The usefulness of carboxylate and imidazolates in construction of some important coordination polymer compounds like MOF-5, HKUST-1, ZIFs, MIL-53, UiO-66, CD-MOF-1 etc has been described in detail along with its properties. The coordination polymers exhibit many important properties and some of the properties like sorption, separation, ionic conductivity, catalysis and ferroelectricity have been discussed briefly and summerized. Chapter 1 also provides the general synthetic and characterization approaches that have been employed during the present studies. Chapter 2 Part A: Adenine Based Coordination Polymers with Cyclohexane dicarboxylic acids This chapter presents the synthesis, structure and properties of four new coordination polymers [Zn4(C8H10O4)2.5(C5H4N5)3.2H2O].7H2O.2DMA (I), [Cd3(C8H10O4)2(C5H4N5)2.H2O] (II), [Cd(C8H11O4)2(C5H5N5)2.2H2O] (III), [Cd(C8H10O4)(C7H8N5O).H2O]. 4H2O (IV), (CHDA = cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid, ad = adenine, DMA = dimethylacetamide, 9-HEA = 9-hydroxyethyl adenine). The compound I and II forms three-dimensional structure having distinct arrangements of 1,4-CHDA and adenine units with Zn and Cd metals respectively. The molecular complex unit is observed in compound III with 1,2-CHDA and adenine. Compound IV forms two-dimensional structure with 9-HEA and 1,2-CHDA. The observation of base-pairing interactions in the above compounds is noteworthy. In compounds I, II and IV amino groups are appears to be free and utilized for the detection of nitro aromatic explosives through fluorescence quenching. The results revealed that the emission behavior of the present compounds is greatly influenced by the hydroxyl nitroaromatic analyses like indophenol, dinitrophenyl and trinitrophenols with very low detection limits. The compound I also exhibits considerable sensitivity towards metal ion detection, especially Fe2+/Fe3+, Cr3+, Ag+ and Hg2+ ions in solution. The presence of free nitrogen sites in compound II has been explored for the base catalyzed Knoevenagel condensation reaction, the quantitative yields are observed with various aldehyde substrates. Part B: Adenine Based Coordination Polymer with Oxydiacetic acid: [Cd2(C4H4O5)2(C5H5N5)].H2O.DMA The synthesis, structure and properties of a Cd based coordination polymer with oxydiacetic acid and adenine, [Cd2(C4H4O5)2(C5H5N5)].H2O. DMA is described. The compound has a two-dimensional structure formed by the connectivity involving Cd and oxydiacetic acid. The adenine ligand binds with the Cd metal center through the pyrimidine nitrogen and hangs in the inter layer spaces. The layers are stacked in a ABAB.... fashion and the inter layer spaces occupied by the dimethyl amine and water molecules. The water molecules are very labile and its removal can be accomplished by heating the sample at 100°C, which is also confirmed by the single crystal XRD, PXRD and IR studies. The availability of free amino groups of adenine molecule has been utilized for the detection of nitroaromatics, especially nitrophenols with good sensitivity. The amino group was also found to be useful in catalyzing Knoevenagel condensation reactions. Chapter 3: Rare-Earth Metal Carboxylates: Ln2(µ3-OH)(C4H4O5)2(C4H2O4)].2H2O [Ln=Ce, Pr and Nd] This chapter describes synthesis, structure and properties of series of rare-earth based compounds, [Ln2(µ3-OH)(C4H4O5)2(C4H2O4)].2H2O (Ln = Ce, Pr and Nd). The malic acid and fumaric acid form part of the structure. The lanthanide centers are connected by the malate units to form a two dimensional layers, which are pillared by fumarate units forming the three-dimensional structure. Overall, structure can be described as I2O1 type inorganic in two-dimension (Ln-O-Ln layers) and organic in one dimension. The extra framework water molecules form a dimer and occupy the channels. The robustness of the framework was reflected in terms of facile removal and reinsertion of the water molecules, which is also confirmed by single crystal XRD, variable temperature IR and cyclic TGA study. The presence of water dimers and weakly interacting water chain suggested the possibility of proton migration in these compounds. Proton conductivity studies reveal the conductivity values of ~2.85 x 10-6 Ω-1cm-1 at 98% relative humidity. The optical studies revealed an up-conversion behavior involving more than one photon for the neodymium compound. Chapter 4: Bismuth Carboxylates with Brucite and Fluorite Related Structures The synthesis, structure and properties of three new bismuth based coordination polymers have been described in this chapter. The compounds [C4N2H10][Bi(C7H4NO4)(C7H3NO4)].H2O (I), [Bi(C5H3N2O4) (C5H2N2O4)] (II) and [Bi(µ2-OH)(C7H3NO4)] (III) were isolated employing hydrothermal condition with three different heterocyclicdicarboxylic acids, 3,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid, 4,5-imidazoledicarboxylic acid and 3,4-pyridinedicarboxylic acid respectively. The structures of all the compounds have linkages between Bi2O2 and the corresponding dicarboxylate forming a simple molecular unit in I, a bilayer arrangement in II and a three-dimensional extended structure in III. The topological arrangement of the nodal building units in the structures resembles brucite related layers in II and fluorite related arrangement in compound III. By utilizing the secondary interactions, the structure of III can be correlated to a Kagome related net. The observation of such classical inorganic related structures in the bismuth carboxylates is noteworthy. Heterogeneous catalytic studies indicate Lewis acidic nature in the bismuth center in all three compounds. Chapter 5: Solvent dependent Delamination, Restacking and Ferroelectric studies in a Two-Dimensional Compound [NH4][Ag3(C9H5NO4S)2(C13H14N2)2].8H2O This chapter describes synthesis, structure, water dependent delamination/restacking and ferroelectric behavior in a layered coordination polymer compound, [NH4][Ag3(C9H5NO4S)2(C13H14N2)2].8H2O. The compound has a two-dimensional structure with the water molecules occupying the inter-lamellar spaces. The lattice water molecules can be fully removed and reinserted, which accompany the crystalline-amorphous-crystalline transformation. This transformation resembles the collapse/delamination and re-stacking of the layers. This transformation has also been investigated by in-situ IR and PXRD studies. The presence of a natural dipole (anionic framework and cationic ammonium ions) along with the non-centrosymmetric space group gives rise to a room-temperature ferroelectric behavior to the compound with saturation polarization (Ps) of 1.95 μC/cm2 and remnant polarization of 0.63 μC/cm2. The temperature dependent dielectric measurements indicate that the ferroelectric-paraelectric transformation occurs at 320 K. The ferroelectric-paraelectric transformation also follows the crystalline-amorphous-crystalline transitions.

Metallosupramolecular chemistry involves the construction of nanoscale molecular assemblies by reacting metal atoms with bridging organic ligands. The metal atoms act as a type of molecular ‘glue’ binding together the organic ligands in specific orientations. Thus, appropriate combinations of metal ions and ligands lead to the controlled self-assembly of interesting one-, two- and three-dimensional molecular aggregates. This thesis details the preparation of a range of novel flexible bridging heterocyclic ligands using conventional organic synthesis, and then explores their reactions with a variety of transition metal precursors. By varying the nature of the organic ligand and the transition metal precursor, new and exciting supramolecular topologies and architectures can be formed. A total of forty-eight ligands were synthesised in this work, forty-seven of which are new compounds. The majority of the ligands synthesised were based around commercially available bisphenol cores. All forty-eight of the ligands had nitrogen heterocyclic groups as coordinating units. The ligands discussed in this thesis can be divided into three main sections. The first involves the synthesis and coordination chemistry of two-armed ligands based around the Bisphenol A, Bisphenol Z and Bisphenol AP cores. The second section describes the synthesis and coordination chemistry of the larger Bisphenol P and Bisphenol M based two-armed bridging ligands. The third section describes the synthesis and coordination chemistry of various multi-substituted ligands, including tripodal ligands based around a trisphenol core, four-armed ligands and six-armed ligands. The two-armed bisphenol based ligands proved very successful as synthons in metallosupramolecular chemistry and produced many products with a variety of different metal atoms. The complexes characterised included discrete dimeric products, coordination polymers and a number of helicates, including a dinuclear quadruply-stranded helicate. Multi-armed ligands are topical, because they have multiple coordination sites that are capable of binding and bridging multiple metal atoms. Such coordination can lead to the construction of cage-like species and complicated networks. A series of three-armed ligands based around a trisphenol core were synthesised with the intention to use these to form such species on coordination with appropriate metal salts. Indeed, one of the products of self-assembly was an interesting M₃L₂ cage. Various other multi-armed ligands were also investigated. The ligands and complexes in this thesis were characterised by a variety of structural techniques, such as ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, mass spectrometry, elemental analysis and X-ray crystallography when crystals were obtained. The crystal structures of twenty-seven ligands and forty-three complexes are described.

La conception de nouveaux matériaux fonctionnels a une longue histoire. Durant les deux dernières décennies, le domaine des polymères organiques et inorganiques a attiré l'attention des chercheurs. Plus important encore, les matériaux poreux tels que les Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs), en anglais, Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs), en anglais, ainsi que des polymères de coordination poreux sont maintenant étudiés de manière intensive en raison de leurs applications potentielles, comprenant le stockage de gaz, la séparation de gaz, la catalyse et la détection. D'un autre côté, les polymères contenant du Pt ont montré l'application potentielle dans les cellules solaires et les diodes électroluminescentes. Le mémoire est divisé en trois sections principales présentant des résultats nouveaux. Dans la première section, le chapitre 2 traite essentiellement de la formation de polymères de coordination (CP) avec des sels CuX (X = Cl, Br, I) et trans-[p-MeSC6H4C≡C-Pt(PMe3)2-C≡CC6H4SMe] (L1), soit dans le PrCN ou PhCN. Les polymères résultants sont soit 2D (bidimensionel) ou 1D (unidimensionel). Cependant, en presence de PrCN ou de PhCN, le CP 2D obtenu avec le CuBr n'a pas incorporé de solvant dans ses espaces vides. D'autre part, le CP 2D et le reste des CP 1D obtenus avaient soit des molécules de solvant de cristallisation dans leurs cavités ou coordonnés au cuivre sur la chaîne. Les unités cuivre-halogénures étaient soit des rhomboïdes Cu2X2 ou le cubane Cu4I4. Leurs mesures photophysiques en présence et en l'absence de molécules de solvant de cristallisation ont été effectuées. En outre, la porosité du CP a été évaluée par BET (N2 à 77 K). Le vapochromisme du CP 2D sans solvant et des CP 1D ont été étudiés, ainsi que les mesures de sorption du CO2 ont été effectuées. De plus, nous avons utilisé CuCN et L1 dans MeCN pour former de nouveaux CP’s. Ceci est rapporté dans la deuxième section, le chapitre 3. Le CP obtenu était inattendu : L1 s’est rompu et du cyanure CN‾ s’est coordonné sur le Pt. Ceci a conduit à la formation d’un CP 1D zigzag. Généralement, les CP sont formés avec L1 via des liens Cu-S ou/et Cu([éta]2-C≡C), mais pas dans le cas du CuCN qui lui forme une chaîne 1D (CuCN)n où le L1 rompu se lie avec cette chaîne via un lien Cu-N. Les propriétés photophysiques et de stabilité thermique ont été étudiées. La troisième section (Chapitre 4) traite d'une exploration des CP formés par la reaction des sels CuX (X = Cl, Br, I) et le trans-[p-MeSC6H4C≡C-Pt(PMe3)2-C≡CC6H4SMe] (L1) ou le trans-[p-MeSC6H4C≡C-Pt(PEt3)2-C≡CC6H4SMe] (L2) dans du MeCN afin de trouver des tendances. L'utilisation de L1 a donné lieu à un CP 2D ou 1D CPs avec le MeCN piégé à l'intérieur des cavités, il y a de l’espace vide. L2 a conduit uniquement à des CP 1D sans molecules de solvant de cristallisation. Des analyses thermogravimétriques, photophysique et des mesures d’adsorption de gaz (uniquement pour ceux avec du solvant) ont été étudiées. / Abstract: The design of new functional materials has a long history. For the past two decades, the field of organic and inorganic polymers has attracted attention of researchers. More importantly, porous materials such as Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs), Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) as well as porous coordination polymers are now being intensively studied due to their potential applications including gas storage, gas separations, catalyst and sensing. On another hand, Pt-containing polymers have shown potential applications in solar cells and light emitting diodes. The masters’ thesis is mainly divided into three main sections presenting new results. In the first section; Chapter 2 mainly discusses the formation of coordination polymers with CuX salts (X= Cl, Br, I) and trans-[p-MeSC6H4C≡C-Pt(PMe3)2-C≡CC6H4SMe] (L1), in either PrCN or PhCN. The resulting polymers obtained were 2D (bidimensional) CPs or 1D (unidimensional) CPs in all cases. However, 2D CPs obtained when CuBr salt is used by either using PrCN or PhCN did not incorporate the solvents in their cavities. On the other hand, the 2D CP and the rest of 1D CPs obtained had either the crystallization molecules in the cavities or coordinated to the copper cluster. The copper-halide clusters were either the rhomboids Cu2X2 fragments or the step cubane Cu4I4. The photophysical measurements in the presence and absence of solvent crystallization molecules were performed. In addition, the porosity of the CPs was evaluated by adsorption isotherms. The vapochromism of the solvent-free 2D and 1D CPs were investigated as well as CO2 sorption measurements were perfomed. Furthermore, we then attempted to use CuCN and L1 in MeCN which is reported in the second section as Chapter 3. The obtained CP was unexpected as L1 broke and a cyanide (CN‾) ion coordinated to the Pt atom leading to the formation of zigzag 1D CP. The coordination bonds Cu-S or/and Cu([eta]2-C≡C) were generally observed with L1, but not in the CuCN case. Instead a 1D chain of (CuCN)n was made and the broken L1 now binds the chain via a Cu-N bond. The photophysical and thermal stability properties were studied. Lastly, the third section, Chapter 4 deals with a potential predictability of CP formation by using CuX salts (X= Cl, Br, I) and either trans-[p-MeSC6H4C≡C-Pt(PMe3)2-C≡CC6H4SMe] (L1) or trans-[p-MeSC6H4C≡C-Pt(PEt3)2-C≡CC6H4SMe] (L2) in MeCN as the solvent. The use of L1 resulted in either 2D or 1D CPs with the MeCN trapped inside of the cavities while L2 resulted in 1D CPs without MeCN being present in their cavities. The thermogravimetric, photophysical as well as gas sorption measurements (only for those with crystalisation molecules) were perfomed.

L’essor de la chimie supramoléculaire et plus particulièrement de la tectonique moléculaire a rendu la formation de matériaux poreux hautement organisés possible. La fonctionnalisation de tels composés favorise leur utilisation pour de nombreuses applications. Les travaux présentés dans cette thèse ont été consacrés aux réseaux moléculaires poreux homochiraux ainsi que leur utilisation pour le stockage de gaz, la reconnaissance et la séparation d’énantiomères.Le premier chapitre décrit la synthèse de divers ligands organiques optiquement purs et leur assemblage avec des sels de cuivre pour l’obtention de monocristaux. Les isothermes d’adsorption de chacun de ces composés cristallins ont été mesurés via des analyses BET et le stockage de N2,CO2 et CH4 ont été évalué.Le second chapitre s’intéresse à l’utilisation de ces mêmes composés chiraux pour la reconnaissance des énantiomères (L)- et (D)-tryptophane. Des tests de séparation énantiosélective de molécules aminées ou dérivées d’amides sont également exposés.Le dernier chapitre décrit la formation de réseaux moléculaire mono- et tridimensionnels par l’association de ligands organiques avec des sels métalliques variés. Leurs structures cristallines ont pu être déterminées par diffraction des rayons X sur monocristal. / The development in supramolecular chemistry and more particularly in molecular tectonics has madepossible the formation of porous and highly organized materials. The functionalization of suchcompounds favored their use for various applications. This PhD work is about the application ofporous homochiral coordination networks for storage, enantioselective recognition or separation.The first chapter deals with the synthesis of chiral ligands and their combinations with copper salts toenable the formation of single crystals. Their adsorption isotherms were evaluated by BETmeasurements. Storage of N2, CO2 and CH4 by these crystalline architectures was also evaluated.The second part describes the use of these chiral compounds for enantioselective recognition of (L)-and (D)-tryptophan. Tests of enantioselective separation of amines or amides were also carried out.The last part of this work deals with the formation of mono- or tridimensional coordination polymersby combinations of organic ligands and a variety of metallic salts. Their structures were determinedby X-ray diffraction on single crystal.

Les travaux décrits dans ce manuscrit utilisent les principes de la tectonique moléculaire pour générer des polymères de coordination hautement fluorés et /ou chiraux pour une application potentielle en séparation chirale. La synthèse de 13 porphyrines de type A2B2 substituées en position méso par deux pyridines et par deux chaines fluorées et/ou alkyles a été mise au point. Des réseaux de coordination ont été obtenus en présence de Zn(II) et de Cd(II) et caractérisés par diffraction des RX sur monocristal (DRX). Une analyse systématique des interactions supramoléculaires et notamment de interactions F---F présentes à l’état solide a été conduite. Des réseaux à base de liaisons halogènes ont également été obtenus en présence de di- et tri-iodoarènes et caractérisés par DRX.Le premier chapitre est une introduction générale sur la tectonique moléculaire, le deuxième chapitre décrit les voies des synthèses utilisées pour générer les ligands chiraux et fluorés et leur caractérisation à l’état solide. Le troisième chapitre présente la structure des réseaux mono, bi, et tridimensionnels formés en présence de Zn(II) ou de Cd(II), l’analyse structurale met en évidence un nombre croissant d’interaction F---F en fonction du nombre de fluors présents à la périphérie du macrocycle porphyrinique. Le dernier chapitre se concentre sur l’utilisation des liaisons halogènes de type N---I impliquant des porphyrines ou des tectons de type bipyridine et une série d’ iodofluoroarenes. / This manuscript focuses on the use of molecular tectonics to generate chiral and / or fluorinated coordination polymers based on porphyrin building blocks for potential application in chiral separation. Synthesis of novel A2B2 fluorinated porphyrin tectons is described and their combinations with metal ions and haloarenes molecules are characterized by X-Ray diffraction.The first chapter gives a general introduction on molecular tectonics; the second chapter focuses on the synthetic routes used for the synthesis of highly fluorinated and/or chiral porphyrins and their solid state characterization by X-Ray diffraction analysis, highlighting the importance of the number of fluorine atoms present at the periphery of the tecton on the crystal packing. The third chapter presents the mono-, bi- and three dimensional networks formed by a combination of the porphyrins with Zn(II) or Cd(II). In the solid state, short F---F contacts were observed depending on the number of fluorine atoms present on the porphyrin backbone. The last chapter focuses on the use of halogen bonds, by merging the neutral porphyrin or bipyridine tectons with a series of iodofluoroarenes. The crystalline materials described in this work can be used as potential candidates for the separation of chiral and fluorinated molecules.

Die vorliegende Arbeit hat neben der Untersuchung der Synthese über den Controlled SBU-Approach von HKUST-1, ein poröses Kupfertrimesat, die Abscheidung dieses Metal-Organic Frameworks in dünnen Quarzglaskapillaren mit einer Länge von 10 bis 30 m und Innendurchmessern zwischen 0,53 und 0,25 mm zum Thema. Diese Säulen werden zur gaschromatographischen Trennung wie auch zur Bestimmung physikochemischer Kenngrößen, die den Adsorptionsvorgang verschiedener Analyten auf der HKUST-1 Oberfläche beschreiben, verwendet. Zu den untersuchten Stoffen gehören neben unpolaren n-Alkanen, unterschiedlich substituierte Phenylaromaten und starke Lewisbasen, wie Alkoxyalkane. Bei diesen kann der Einfluss der Gestalt und Länge der an den Sauerstoffatomen befindlichen Alkylgruppen auf die Adsorption an HKUST-1 in Form von spezifischen und unspezifischen Wechselwirkungsenthalpien, bestimmt aus gaschromatographischen Messungen, und infrarotspektroskopischen Auswertungen untersucht werden. Abschließend wird eine quantitative Aussage über das Verhältnis von Acidität und Basizität der HKUST-1 Oberfläche getroffen.
