[WS4Cu3I2] and [WS4Cu4]2+ secondary building units formed a metal–organic framework: Large tubes in a highly interpenetrated system

Abstract

A 3D metal–organic framework, {[WS4Cu4(dpbp)4]2+·[WS4Cu3(dpbp)2I2]·I}n·xSolvent, [dpbp = 4,4′-di(4-pyridyl)biphenyl] with an unprecedent 8-fold non-equivalent interpenetration mode is presented, which contains four anionic and four cationic frameworks formed by tetranuclear [WS4Cu3I2] and pentanuclear [WS4Cu4]2+ SBUs with long dpbp ligands. Large rhombus-shaped tubes with diagonal dimensions of ∼20 × 10 Å are formed in spite of high interpenetration.
