A series of zinc(ii), cobalt(ii) and manganese(ii) coordination networks with phosphoserine ligand (HPSer) are synthesized and characterized. Whereas in compounds 1 and 2 with the general formula [M(HPser)] [M = Zn (1) and Co (2)], the metal(ii) ion presents a tetrahedral geometry, in [Co(HPSer)(HO)] (3) and [Mn(HPSer)(HO)] (4), the metal(ii) ions are in a distorted octahedral geometry. The 3D frameworks are formed by inorganic layers built up from MO or MO polyhedra and phosphate groups. These layers are linked by the carboxylate groups of the phosphoserine ligand. The presence of extended hydrogen bonding stabilizes the 3D network and favours the proton transfer leading to moderate proton conductors. The highest proton conductivity, 2.70 × 10 S cm (at 80 °C and 95% RH), is obtained for compound 3. Temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements for 2-4 reveal predominant antiferromagnetic interactions between the paramagnetic metal(ii) ions.
