Synthesis and structure of a novel supramolecular Zn3Co8assembly containing a linear Zn3 core†
Abstract
Reaction of Zn(OAc)2·2H2O (OAc = acetate) with LH2 in THF followed by reaction with Co2(CO)8 yields the novel supramolecular CH-2-OH-5-C
CSiMe3C6H3)2 or N,N′-propylenebis(2-hydroxy-5-trimethylsilylethynl-1-aldimine).
