Abstract

The design of programmed molecules capable of organizing in a predictable way to form complex superstructures is an attractive target of contemporary research.[1] Supramolecular chemistry and crystal engineering have advanced largely by using the node and spacer approach for the construction of polygonal frames and infinite 2D or 3D nets by means of coordination chemistry.[2] Chevron-shaped bidentate ligands have been used for the ...
