Topological equivalences between organic and coordination polymer crystal structures: an organic ladder formed with three-connected molecular and supramolecular synthons.
[structure: see text] Crystal engineering of an organic ladder can be achieved with a T-shaped molecule, 4,4-bis(4'-hydroxyphenyl)-1-cyclohexanol, having three hydroxyl functionalities that can form O-H...O hydrogen-bonded helices. The topology of this network structure finds a parallel in three-connected coordination polymers.
