Self-assembly and chiral recognition of a two-dimensional coordination polymer from a chiral nickel(II) macrocyclic complex and trimesic acid.
A two-dimensional chiral open framework, [Ni(L(R,R))](3)[C(6)H(3)(COO)(3)](2).12H(2)O.CH(3)CN (3), is prepared from a nickel(II) macrocyclic complex with chiral pendants and benzenetricarboxylate in MeCN/H(2)O and characterized [L(R,R) = 1,8-bis[(R)-alpha-methylbenzyl]-1,3,6,8,10,13-hexaazacyclotetradecane]. The open framework shows selective chiral recognition by interactions between the solid 3 and rac-1,1'-bi-2-naphthol.
