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. ...
Unusual Triplet-Triplet Annihilation in a 3D Copper Chloride Coordination Polymer
A new coordination polymer (CP) defined as [Cu2Cl2(EtS(CH2)4SEt)4]n (CP2) was prepared by reacting EtS(CH2)4SEt with CuCl in acetonitrile in a 1 : 2 stoichiometric ratio. The X-ray structure reveals formation of non-porous 3D material composed of parallel 2D-[Cu2Cl2S2]n layers of Cl-bridged ...
