Cooperative directing effect of OH anions and polymerized DABCO cations in the formation of the Ge16O32(OH)−(C6H12 N2H)+(C6H12N2 )·1.125H2O zeotype
Abstract
Ge16O32(OH)−(C6 H12N2H)+(C6H12 N2)·1.125H2O results from a simultaneous cation and anion templating effect during the zeotype formation; the structure shows a linear arrangement of the organic species along the channels as well as the existence of Ge4O8 tetramers with confined OH− anions in the middle of large germanium cages.
