Edge-directed [(M2)2L4] tetragonal metal-organic polyhedra decorated using a square paddle-wheel secondary building unit.
A general strategy was developed for edge-directed self-assembly of tetragonal metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs) having a C(4) symmetry Cu(II)(2)(COO)(4) paddle-wheel as a secondary building unit, using C(2) symmetric dicarboxylic ligands as pincer-type primary building units.
