A robust porous PtS-type Cu(ii) metal–organic framework: single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation with reversible guest intercalation accompanied by colour change†
Abstract
A novel PtS-type porous Cu(II) complex, {[Cu3(dmtrz)2(OX)2(H2O)2]·8.5H2O}n (1) was synthesized through diffusion reaction, which showed single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation during a reversible dehydration and rehydration process accompanied by a colour change.
