Control of Structures and Emission Properties of (CuI)n 2-Methyldithiane Coordination Polymers
A structurally unique and strongly luminescent nonporous 3D coordination polymer (CP) [Cu8I8(methyldithiane)4]n, CP3, has been prepared in a quasi-anticipated manner from 2-methyl-1,3-dithiane, L1, and CuI. This CP incorporates an unprecedented Cu8I8 cluster built upon two side-fused open cubanes. ...
A Fused Poly(truncated rhombic dodecahedron)-Containing 3D Coordination Polymer: A Multifunctional Material with Exceptional Properties
The design of new and inexpensive metal-containing functional materials is of great interest. Herein is reported a unique thermochromic near-IR emitting coordination polymer, 3D-[Cu8I8(L1)2]n, CP2, which is formed when ArS(CH2)4SAr (L1, Ar = 4-C6H4OMe) reacts with 2 equiv of CuI in EtCN. In MeCN, ...
