A Rock-Salt-Like Lattice Structure Consisting of Monocationic and Monoanionic AuIAgICuII Supramolecular Cages of D-Penicillaminate

All three coinage metals are present in the supramolecular compound created from D‐penicillamine (D‐H2pen) by stepwise reaction with AuI, AgI, and CuII in the presence of Cl−. In this compound, 20‐nuclear monocationic [Au6Ag8Cu6Cl(H2O)5(D‐pen)12]+ and 21‐nuclear monoanionic [Au6Ag9Cu6Cl4(H2O)6(D‐pen...

Description
Summary:All three coinage metals are present in the supramolecular compound created from D‐penicillamine (D‐H2pen) by stepwise reaction with AuI, AgI, and CuII in the presence of Cl−. In this compound, 20‐nuclear monocationic [Au6Ag8Cu6Cl(H2O)5(D‐pen)12]+ and 21‐nuclear monoanionic [Au6Ag9Cu6Cl4(H2O)6(D‐pen)12]− (see picture) supramolecular cages, each of which accommodates a Cl− ion (green), are linked so as to form a giant rock‐salt‐like lattice structure.
