title: Octahedral metal clusters as building units in a neutral layered honeycomb network, [Zn(en)]2[Nb6Cl12(CN)6].
abstract: A polymeric hybrid cluster-based compound with a double-layered honeycomb framework built of octahedral niobium cyanochloride clusters and [Zn(en)]2+ metal complexes was designed and synthesized at room temperature, and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction.
