Water-dimers encapsulated in channel-containing 1D coordination polymers based on a linear dimetallic spacer

Cyclic Pentameric Puckered Hybrid Chloride–Water Cluster [Cl3(H2O)4]3– in the Hydrophobic Architecture

“…The in vitro study of the water cluster will help us to understand the biological implications of a water cluster in the folding, function, and activity of proteins through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions . At the molecular level there are several types of water cluster emanated starting from dimers, trimers, teramers, pentamers, hexamers, heptamers, octamers, nonamers, decamers, undecamers, dodecamers, or even greater in various organic environments and metal mediated hosts, owing to the coordination tendency of water to metal. Therefore, elucidation of the H-bonding pattern in several surroundings is important.…”

Synthesis and structural studies of [Mn(μ-bpp)2Cl2]n: a 3D coordination polymer of Mn(II) with 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane

“…Recently, bpp ligands were used with nickel, cobalt, cadmium, zinc and copper ions to form *Corresponding author. E-mail: morsali_a@modares.ac.ir new metal-organic coordination polymers [33][34][35][36][37]. As a continuation of these works, we herein report the solid state structure of [Mn(μ-bpp) 2 Cl 2 ] n as a new three-dimensional coordination polymer.…”

Syntheses and crystal structures of two new nickel(II) complexes with pyrazine-2,3,5,6-tetracarboxylate

“…[24][25][26][27][28] However, cations or anions make up a chain and the chain inserts in a channel made up by counter ions have not been found in the reports. Channels occupied by guest water molecules are very common, [29][30][31][32][33] while negatively-charged channels occupied by positivelycharged chains have not been found in literature.…”
