A pentametallic Co5L4 architecture constructed from bis-substituted phosphate-based ligands†
Abstract
A pentametallic Co 5 L 4 architecture has been constructed from the bis-substituted phosphoric acid pro-ligand P(O)(OH)(OC 6 H 4 NH 2 -3) 2 . The architecture, which is comprised of a metal centre embedded in a M 4 L 4 square, was characterised in the solid state by X-ray diffraction, confirming cobalt atoms in two different coordination geometries.
