Abstract
Reaction of 1,4-bis(1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzene ligand (bib) and CuSiF6 in water/ dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) as the solvent mixture affords purple crystals of a metal-organic framework, 1, suitable for single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) analysis. 1 crystallizes in the triclinic P − 1 space group: a = 12.694(2) Å, b = 13.455(2) Å, c = 13.740(3) Å, α = 88.919(7)°, β = 67.864(7)°, γ = 65.029(6)°, V = 1942.9(6) Å3. 1 was found to be a new phase of SIFSIX-23-Cu. Moreover, in the structure pores a cluster formed by two molecules of DMSO and ten molecules of water was identified possessing a double ice Ih-like shape.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Chemical Crystallography is an international and interdisciplinary publication dedicated to the rapid dissemination of research results in the general areas of crystallography and spectroscopy. Timely research reports detail topics in crystal chemistry and physics and their relation to problems of molecular structure; structural studies of solids, liquids, gases, and solutions involving spectroscopic, spectrometric, X-ray, and electron and neutron diffraction; and theoretical studies.
