Journal ArticleDOI

The use of aurophilic and other metal–metal interactions as crystal engineering design elements to increase structural dimensionality

TL;DR: This tutorial review will explore the methods by which gold(I) and other d10 and d8 metal centres have been employed to increase structural dimensionality via the formation of metal-metal interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cu[Au(CN)2]2(DMSO)2: golden polymorphs that exhibit vapochromic behavior.

TL;DR: The network-stabilizing gold-gold interactions and the flexible coordination sphere of Cu(II) probably facilitate reversible solvent exchange at room temperature, and the vapochromic behavior of the two polymorphs is essentially identical.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polymorphism of Zn[Au(CN)2]2 and Its Luminescent Sensory Response to NH3 Vapor

TL;DR: Upon exposure to ammonia vapor, the polymers altered their structures and emission energies, with the emission wavelength shifting to 500 nm for {Zn(NH3)2[Au(CN)2]2}, which adopts a two-dimensional layer structure with octahedral, trans-oriented NH3 groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gold−Gold Interactions as Crystal Engineering Design Elements in Heterobimetallic Coordination Polymers

TL;DR: A series of coordination polymers containing Cu(II) and [Au(CN)(2)](-) units has been prepared, thus illustrating that such "aurophilic" interactions can be powerful tools for increasing structural dimensionality in supramolecular systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heterobimetallic Coordination Polymers Incorporating [M(CN)2]- (M = Cu, Ag) and [Ag2(CN)3]- Units: Increasing Structural Dimensionality via M−M‘ and M···NC Interactions

TL;DR: A series of new heterometallic coordination polymers has been prepared from the reaction of metal-ligand cations and KAg(CN)(2) units, showing that Ag(I) is a more efficient mediator of magnetic exchange as compared to Au(I).
