Helical and network coordination polymers based on a novel C2-symmetric ligand : SHG enhancement through specific metal coordination.
Cu(I) and Ag(I) coordination polymers of an axially chiral "push-pull" ligand possess respectively 2-D network and helical structures and the coordination mode strongly influences the solid state SHG reduction/enhancement with respect to the free ligand.
