Self-Assembly of a Nanoscopic Platinum(II) Double Square Cage
摘要:
Self-assembly of a rigid tripyridyl linker with a bidentate 90 degrees Pt(II) acceptor yielded a somewhat unusual double square cage, representing the first example of Pt(II) cage of such shape. Multinuclear NMR as well as single-crystal structure analysis characterized the cage.
Utilizing coordination as a motif, the self-organization of six ditopic and four tritopic building blocks leads to the formation of nanoscale adamantanoid frameworks.
