Hydrothermal synthesis of a thermally stable porous supramolecular π–π framework: [{Co2(C12H8N2)4 (μ-C4O4)(OH2)2}C 4O4]·8H2OElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: TGA curve for 1 and X-ray powder diffraction patterns. See http://www.rsc.org/suppdata/cc/b1/b100921o/
Abstract
The title compound was synthesized by hydrothermal methods and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, which reveals an open-framework structure containing dumbbell-shaped windows with hydrophilic and hydrophobic characteristics.
