Abstract

A [1,1,1,1]metacyclophane blocked in the 1,3-alternate conformation and bearing four pyridine units leads, under self-assembly conditions in the crystalline phase, to the formation of a fourfold interpenetrated 3-D co-ordination network in the presence of silver cations; the 3-D net is generated through the bridging by linearly co-ordinated silver cations of consecutive tectons presenting a pseudo-tetrahedral arrangement of four co-ordination sites.
