The ethanol vapor adsorption behavior and the inclusion crystal structure of a 1D-transformable coordination polymer host were characterized. The adsorption jump was observed during phase transition or two-phase equilibrium with abnormal adsorption enthalpy caused by the nature of "mass induced phase transition." The included ethanol guests selectively form O-H...O hydrogen bonded pairs inside channels, suggesting selective construction of a specific cluster/aggregate in pores under control of thermodynamic factors and cooperative intermolecular interactions among the guest and channel surface.
The structure of a linear chain complex [Rh(II)2(O2CPh)4(pyz)]∞ was characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. The solid indicates nitrogen adsorption on a microporous medium although the crystal does not seem to have a microporous structure. There is a high possibility that the structure changes to open the crystal packing for gas molecules.
Sheer magnetism: The phase transitions and magnetic behavior of included oxygen in a single crystal were studied at low temperature. The system exhibits three correlated structural and magnetic phases. The distinct middle‐temperature phase shows a one‐dimensional‐chain arrangement of oxygen trimers with an anomalous magnetization response to external magnetic fields.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
