Benzenepolycarboxylate-templated assembly of silver coordination polymers exhibiting argentophilic honeycomb layer and tubular motifs.
Organic anion template-controlled reactions of benzenepolycarboxylic acids with silver(I) salts resulted in two coordination polymers with distinct structural features based on the argentophilic interaction, one exhibiting a honeycomb layer formed by the fusion of macrocyclic Ag(16) rings and the other furnishing the first example of a Ag(∞) tubular motif.
