Abstract

The crystal structure of solvated [Zn(tpt)2/3(SiF6)(H2O)2(MeOH)][tpt = 2,4,6-tris(4-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine] is comprised of eight independent [Zn3(tpt)2]n networks with the (10,3)-a topology, four of one handedness and four of the other, which interpenetrate in a remarkable way, aspects of which were postulated by A. F. Wells almost twenty years ago.
