Solvent and temperature influence structural variation from nonporous 2D → 3D parallel polycatenation to 3D microporous metal–organic framework

Abstract

Three novel complexes constructed from the same initial materials, exhibiting the variation of architectures from nonporous 2D → 3D parallel polycatenation based on highly undulating (4,4) nets to 3D microporous pillar-layered network through influencing the interpenetration, have been successfully synthesized under different reaction conditions.
