Fig. 11 Crystal structure of a metal-organic framework material Zn2(fina)2(bipy) prepared by mechanochemical synthesis, with the structure determined directly from powder XRD data. The structure is viewed (a) along the c-axis and (b) along the b-axis. The two (identical) interpenetrated frameworks are indicated by yellow and purple shading. For comparison, (c) and (d) show the corresponding views of the stmcture of a DMF solvate material Zn2(fma)2(bipy)(DMF)o.5 prepared by a solvothermal route. Although there is some similarity between these structures, there are nevertheless important stmctural differences between them...
