Formation of Two 1D Polymeric Water Morphologies

Two complexes with double‐ or triple‐stranded chain structures, {[Cd(pg)(phen)]·3H2O}n (1) and {[Cd3(cpg)3(phen)2]·3H2O}n (2), have been hydrothermally synthesized [H2pg = 3‐phenylglutaric acid, H2cpg = 3‐(4‐chlorophenyl)glutaric acid, phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline]. In the crystal lattices of 1 and 2,...

Description
Summary:Two complexes with double‐ or triple‐stranded chain structures, {[Cd(pg)(phen)]·3H2O}n (1) and {[Cd3(cpg)3(phen)2]·3H2O}n (2), have been hydrothermally synthesized [H2pg = 3‐phenylglutaric acid, H2cpg = 3‐(4‐chlorophenyl)glutaric acid, phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline]. In the crystal lattices of 1 and 2, two 1D polymeric water morphologies are observed (a treelike chain for 1 and a staircaselike tape for 2), both of which contain (H2O)6 subunits. The geometrical parameters of water chains and tapes are similar to those in ice, Ih, and liquid water, respectively. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2006)
