Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of a planar cyclic form of water hexamer in an organic supramolecular complex: an unusual self-assembly of bimesityl-3,3'-dicarboxylic acid.

TL;DR: Six molecules of water are trapped in the crystal lattice of an organic supramolecular complex with bimesityl-3,3'-dicarboxylic acid in the form of a planar cyclic "ring", which is the basic structural motif of Ice II.
Journal ArticleDOI

Corundum, diamond, and PtS metal-organic frameworks with a difference: self-assembly of a unique pair of 3-connecting D2d-symmetric 3,3',5,5'-tetrakis(4-pyridyl)bimesityl.

TL;DR: The multidentate ligands with novel structural features offer the possibility to construct new and unique coordination poly- polymers in the field of metal–organic frameworks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tandem catalysis with a bifunctional site-isolated Lewis acid–Brønsted base metal–organic framework, NH2-MIL-101(Al)

TL;DR: A metal-organic framework, NH(2)-MIL-101(Al), which acts as a bifunctional, site-isolated Lewis acid-Brønsted base heterogeneous catalyst, catalyzes a tandem Meinwald rearrangement-Knoevenagel condensation reaction with remarkable substrate selectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Helical self-assembly of substituted benzoic acids: influence of weaker X...X and C-H...X interactions.

TL;DR: The X-ray crystal packing analyses of the sterically encumbered halogen-substituted benzene carboxylic acids 1-4 reveal a novel and unprecedented crystal packing in that the association of the carboxyl groups through O-H...O bonds results in the generation of a helix along the 41-screw axis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Water chains in hydrophobic crystal channels: nanoporous materials as supramolecular analogues of carbon nanotubes.

TL;DR: The crystal engineering of channels bounded by nonpolar aromatic units, and the structural characterization of linear chains of water molecules within these pores are reported.
