The octanuclear coordination cage [Ni8(L14Naph)12](BF4)16 has the core structure of a âcuneaneâ - a toplogical isomer of a cube - with a metal ion at each of the eight vertices and bridging ligand spanning each of the twelve edges; this is the only possible 8-vertex polyhedron other than a cube that will form a cage in which each metal is connected to three others.
八核配位笼 [Ni8(L14Naph)12](
BF4)16 具有“cuneane”(立方体的拓扑异构体)的核心结构,八个顶点各有一个
金属离子,桥接
配体跨越每个顶点十二边;这是除了立方体之外唯一可能的 8 顶点多面体,它将形成一个笼子,其中每个
金属都与其他三个
金属相连。
