Abstract

An organic receptor [C28H24N4]2+ can be obtained with its unusual cis-form when it is ion-paired with a [Zn(dmit)2]2− coordination complex anion with the isolation of [C28H24N4][Zn(dmit)2]·2DMF (2). Compound 2 shows reversible cis–trans isomerization of the cationic receptor in a solid to solid transformation in a solid–liquid interface reaction.
