Ligand-directed assembly engineering of trapezoidal {Ti5} building blocks stabilized by dimethylglyoxime†
Abstract
Through ligand-directed assembly of trapezoidal {Ti5} building blocks stabilized by dimethylglyoxime, eight titanium-oxo molecular clusters with a sandwich or square planar type structures were successfully constructed, including the first success on the combination of porphyrin and titanium-oxo clusters.
