Coordination polymers three-dimensional

An example of a three-dimensional penetrating network is the solvated [(ZnCl2)3(35)2] 56 [139], The triazine molecules are part of threefold connecting knots (Fig. 7-17). The zinc atoms have a nearly tetrahedral coordination geometry with two N atoms of 35 and two chlorine ligands. A distorted network is obtained. The self-assembly of CUSO4 in water and l,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane in ethanol results in 57 which presents a three-dimensional architecture sustained by two different types of coordination polymer one-dimensional ribbons of rings and two-dimensional layers (Fig. 7-18) [138]. 

Because values of 8 cover a rather small range, the three-dimensional scheme is often reduced to two dimensions, with polymers and solvents represented on — 6 coordinates with a solubihty circle of radius R.

A three-dimensional (3D) fourfold interpenetrating coordination diamondoid polymer framework with adjustable porous stmcture was synthesized recently. It was demonstrated that this polymer framework is capable of trapping gaseous molecules and may be useful for gas storage [95]. 

Zinc carboxylate interactions have been exploited as part of a fluorescent molecular sensor for uronic acids. The sensors feature two interactions coordination of the carboxylate to the zinc and a boronic acid diol interaction.389 Photoluminescent coordination polymers from hydrothermal syntheses containing Zn40 or Zn4(OH)2 cores with isophthalate or fumarate and 4,4 -bipyridine form two- and three-dimensional structures. Single X-ray diffraction of both dicarboxylates identified the network structure.373... 

We have designed PBUILD, a new CHEMLAB module, for easy construction of random copolymers. A library of monomers has been developed from which the chemists can select a particular sequence to generate a polymeric model. PBUILD takes care of all the atom numbering, three dimensional coordinates, and knows about stereochemistry (tacticity) as well as positional isomerism (head to tail versus head to head attachment). The result is a model of the selected polymer (or more likely a polymer fragment) in an all trans conformation, inserted into the CHEMLAB molecular workspace in literally a few minutes. 

The crystal structure of cadmium(II) formate dihydrate has been determined768 and consists of a three-dimensional polymer with each cadmium octahedrally coordinated. In a two-dimensional plane, the formates bridge in an anti,anti configuration, while in the perpendicular plane, the bridging is in a syn,anti manner. Water molecules occupy the remaining coordination... 

Three-dimensional PCPs tend to produce highly porous, robust frameworks because coordination bonds are distributed in a three-dimensional manner in their polymers. Three types of frameworks have been designed, systematically synthesized, and characterized to obtain three-dimensional PCPs (1) a-Po-type frameworks, (2) zeoli-tic frameworks, and (3) pillared layer frameworks. 

Two basic approaches for the synthesis of inorganic supermolecules and one-, two-, and three-dimensional coordination polymers have been developed ...
