Crosslinking a palladium(II) polymer gives a laminated sheet structure.
Chains of a zigzag coordination polymer containing bis(pyridyl) bridging groups between palladium(II) centres can be arranged to give a laminated sheet structure by a biomimetic approach in which hydrogen bonding involving amide groups is the key feature.
