Construction of helical networks by using multiple V-shaped mixed ligand systems

Helical coordination polymers constructed from multiple ligand systems are not common despite the plethora of recent reports on helical networks. We report here the construction of a series of mixed ligand based helical coordination polymers showing metal dependent architecture. The strategy of usin...

Description
Summary:Helical coordination polymers constructed from multiple ligand systems are not common despite the plethora of recent reports on helical networks. We report here the construction of a series of mixed ligand based helical coordination polymers showing metal dependent architecture. The strategy of using a combination of ligand molecules, each capable of forming helical networks, is novel and should enable us to design helical MOFs of interesting topology.
