title: Construction of a three-dimensional polynuclear zinc compound based on unique metallophthalocyanine-like subunits.
abstract: A polynuclear zinc compound, [Zn(7)(BTA)(7)(OABDC)(mu(3)-OH)(2)(mu(2)-OH)(2).H(2)O] (1), has been prepared by using benzotriazole (HBTA) and 5-oxyacetatoisophthalic acid (H(3)OABDC) as ligands under hydrothermal conditions. For compound 1, an unprecedented metallophthalocyanine-like "Zn(2)(mu(3)-OH)(2) subset [Zn(4)BTA(4)]" subunit is constructed from eta(3)-BTA ligands and Zn atoms and further linked via mu(2)-OH, outer four-connected Zn atoms, and 5-oxyacetateisophthalic acid to form a novel three-dimensional framework.
