Multiple single-crystal-to-single-crystal guest exchange in a dynamic 1D coordination polymer

Abstract: A novel 1D coordination polymer that dynamically expands or shrinks upon the uptake of vapours of volatile small chlorinated molecules, such as 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE), dichloromethane (DCM) and trichloromethane (TCM), is reported. This system is robust enough to withstand multiple guest exchange via single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation, as proved by (1)H-NMR and X-ray diffraction. The single crystal of guest-free, host framework, stable at 400 K, can also be obtained.

“…The phenomenon of SCSC transformation has been noticed long ago, and since then it has drawn great attention and has been extended to many other complexes as well. In many complexes SCSC transformation is facilitated by a change in color of the crystals which makes them a potential candidate for sensor technology. SCSC transformation is the process where a single crystal is exposed to solvent vapors, heat, and light and sometimes by applying mechanochemical forces, resulting in structurally transformed products (Figure ). In general, exposing single crystals to external forces results in the loss of single crystallinity .…”

“…The guest species like solvents, ions, or confined organic molecules accommodated in the pores can act as templates and determine the shapes and sizes of pores [8,9]. Alongside the rigid 3D Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), impressive adsorption properties accompanied by the guest selectivity were reported for 1D and 2D coordination networks [10][11][12].…”

“…Various strategies for the rational design of coordination polymers (CPs) or metalorganic frameworks (MOFs) have received considerable attention recently, not only because of their structural diversities and intriguing topologies [1][2][3][4][5][6], but also due to potential applications in the fields of gas storage, separation, fluorescence, drug delivery, and related fields [712]. The creation of desirable CPs or MOFs with variable dimensions relies on the control of a few critical factors, such as functionality on the ligand, concentration, template, pH, temperature, the solvent system, and reaction time, among others [13][14][15][16][17].…”
