Synthesis of 2D and 3D nets using biimidazole complexes

Year: 2005

Type: article

Abstract: The use of hydrogen-bonding to control the arrangements of cations and anions has been well documented in previous research.[1] [2] Here we report tris-chelated metal complexes containing the biimidazole ligand, which are capable of hydrogen-bonding to form three-dimensional and interpenetrated two-dimensional nets.In particular [Ni(H 2 biim) 3 ] 2+ and [Cr(H 2 biim) 3 ] 3+ (H 2 biim = 2,2biimidazole) have been crystallized with a variety of anionic tectons capable of hydrogen bonding to these cations.
