Polycatenanes infinite

Figure 11.17. (a) Crystal stmcture of the infinite ID polycatenane of [ Ag4(9)4], 4 + Top (b) and side (c) views of the macrometallocyclic stmcture of [Ag6(9)6].6+ Hydrogen atoms, anions, and solvent molecules have been omitted for clarity.

In addition to the infinite tubes, polycatenanes, and polyrotaxanes, all of which are polymeric complexes, a great number of silver coordination polymers with ID, 2D and 3D framework structures have been reported more recently. Selected examples and their specific topologies of some of these are listed in Table 11.1. Schematic structures of the corresponding organic ligands are shown in Figure 11.23.9,58-75...
