Spontaneous resolution of two homochiral ferroelectric cadmium(ii) frameworks and an achiral framework from a one-pot reaction involving achiral rigid ligands

Abstract

Unprecedented two homochiral Cd(II) enantiomers and one achiral Cd(II) complex obtained from one pot reaction with achiral mixed rigid ligands 1,3,5-tris(1-imidazolyl)benzene (tib) and 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate (BDC2−) feature interesting entangled structures in which the ligands display huge distortion, and the homochiral enantiomers show ferroelectric property.
