Syntheses and Characterizations of Novel One-dimensional Coordination Polymers Self-assembled from Co(NCS)2 and Flexible Diester-bridged Pyridine-based Ligands

TL;DR: In this paper, the selfassembly reactions of Co(NCS)2 with diester-bridged pyridine-based ligands pyCO2-(CH2)m-O2Cpy (py = 4-pyridyl; m = 2, 3, 4) have been studied.

Hydrogen-Bond Assisted Assembly of Organic and Organic-Inorganic Solids

TL;DR: The ability to predict and control the assembly of molecular and ionic species into ordered networks has become an important target area in chemistry, biochemistry and materials science as discussed by the authors, and the use of hydrogen bonding as a steering force has emerged as the most important strategy in crystal engineering.

Thermal decomposition and biological activity of two supramolecular hybrid nitrates templated by piperazine

TL;DR: In this article, the combination of piperazine, nitrate anions and nickel/zinc metals provided two new hybrid compounds with the general formula (C4H12N2)2[MII(H2O)6](NO3)6 [MII: Ni (1) and Zn (2)].

Synthesis, crystal structure and properties of Zn(II) and Cd(II) complexes with 2-(4-isopropyl-4-methyl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)nicotinic acid ligand

TL;DR: In this article, two novel complexes, namely [Cd(L)2] (1) and [Zn(L 2(H2O)2]) have been synthesized, which are characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectrum and X-ray crystal diffraction while strong hydrogen bonds play central roles in the formation of the 3D structure.

Supramolecular architectures through first- and second-sphere coordination of a flexible zwitterionic dicarboxylate ligand

TL;DR: In this article, the supramolecular architectures formed through the first or second-sphere coordination between 1,4-diazoniabicyclo[2.2] and different divalent metal ions have been described.

The Protein Data Bank: a computer-based archival file for macromolecular structures.

TL;DR: The Protein Data Bank is a computer-based archival file for macromolecular structures that stores in a uniform format atomic co-ordinates and partial bond connectivities, as derived from crystallographic studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patterns in Hydrogen Bonding: Functionality and Graph Set Analysis in Crystals

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the most promising systematic approaches to resolving this enigma was initially developed by the late M. C. Etter, who applied graph theory to recognize, and then utilize, patterns of hydrogen bonding for the understanding and design of molecular crystals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Supramolecular Synthons in Crystal Engineering—A New Organic Synthesis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that crystal engineering is a new organic synthesis, and that rather than being only nominally relevant to organic chemistry, this subject is well within the mainstream, being surprisingly similar to traditional organic synthesis in concept.
Journal ArticleDOI

Perspectives in Supramolecular Chemistry—From Molecular Recognition towards Molecular Information Processing and Self‐Organization

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a self-assembly approach for the generation of a well-defined supramolecular architecture by self-assembling from their components under a given set of conditions.
