The 8 : 1 : 1 ternary hybrid framework in the system [EDT-TTF +][1,4-bis(iodoethynyl)benzene][Re6Se8(CN)6]4-: dual noncovalent expression of the octahedral halogen-bond hexa-acceptor nanonode.
Complementary shapes of the neutral symmetrical halogen-bond bis-donor core and octahedral inorganic cluster core prevent halogen-bonded polymers developing in more than one direction, favouring further templating by conducting radical cation slabs and yielding an 8 : 1 : 1 phase formulation instead of n : 2 : 1, with a 2D net, or m : 3 : 1, with a pseudo-cubic architecture, which may in principle also be targeted.
