Propeller-shaped chain and 2D grid coordination polymers with the host molecule cyclotriveratrylene and (CB9H5Br5)

Abstract

The host molecule cyclotriveratrylene (CTV) forms coordination polymers with the Group 1 metals K+ and Rb+ and with the carbaborane (CB9H5Br5) as the counter-anion. [K(CTV)2](CB9H5Br5)(CF3CH2OH)2 has a chain structure with an unusual propeller-shaped cross-section, while [Rb(CTV)(CB9H5Br5)(CH3CN)] has a two-dimensional grid structure of distorted hexagonal topology and is one of the few examples of a rubidium acetonitrile complex.
