Metastructures: homeomorphisms between complex inorganic structures and three-dimensional nets

Abstract: We propose a general approach to nets and structures in which vertices represent stereochemically signi®cant groups or clusters of atoms, and edges represent the linkage between these groups. Vertices may be single atoms, dimers, coordination polyhedra, clusters of atoms or clusters of coordination polyhedra; edges may be single chemical bonds or sets of several chemical bonds.Thus, a single net may be the basis for a family of structures that are homeomorphic to that net. The coordination of polyhedra or unit… Show more

“…6), the topology of the schematized net, shown in Fig. 6, is that of Cooperite (PtS), with Ce1 as tetrahedral representing S and Ce2 as square planar representing Pt [31][32][33][34]. This is new and unprecedented topology, never observed in inorganic or coordination polymers, also known as MOF (metal-organic framework).…”

“…The diamond-type net topology goes by various names as it is shared by numerous compounds: sphalerite or zinc blende arrangement (for one of the polymorphs of ZnS), or cristobalite (for one of the polymorphs of SiO 2 ). For more examples see the review by Schindler et al (1999), where these complex inorganic structures which are homeomorphic to simple three-dimensional nets are called their metastructures.…”

“…Thus, the topology of LTN is homeomorphic (topologically equivalent) to the cuprite net ( Fig. 3c), which is based on two interpenetrating nets of the diamond type offset by 1 2 , 1 2 , 1 2 (Schindler et al, 1999) and where the O atom is tetrahedrally coordinated by the Cu atoms. In cuprite the two nets are both of the same type and have no primary bonds connecting them to each other.…”

“…All subgroups of layer symmetry P32/m1 are possible, depending on the orientation of the apical bonds in a central (Cu 2+ 6 ) octahedron. Homeomorphisms (see Schindler et al 2000) to graph 3c occur in the sheets of claringbullite, posnjakite and langite, and in the synthetic compound [Cd Cu 2+ 3 (OH) 6 (NO 3 ) 2 (H 2 O)] (Table 3).…”
