Title: Topological difference in 2D layers steers the formation of rigid and flexible 3D supramolecular isomers: impact on the adsorption properties. Author: Kanoo P, Matsuda R, Kitaura R, Kitagawa S, Maji TK. Journal: Inorg Chem; 2012 Sep 03; 51(17):9141-3. PubMed ID: 22900642. Abstract: Starting with the same precursors, pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylate (pyrdc) and 4,4'-bipyridyl (bipy), two 3D porous coordination polymers, {[Cu(bipy)(0.5)(pyrdc)]·3H(2)O} (1) and {[Cu(bipy)(0.5)(pyrdc)]·0.5bipy·3H(2)O} (2), have been synthesized by changing the solvent system from MeOH/H(2)O to EtOH/H(2)O. Single-crystal structure analysis revealed that 1 and 2 are supramolecular isomers with 3D pillared-layer structures having 1D channel systems. Isomer 1 has a flexible structure and shows gated adsorption behavior, while framework 2 has a rigid backbone and exhibits the adsorption properties of typical microporous materials.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
