Crystal engineering toward intersecting channels in a interpenetrated diamondoid network based on a net-to-net H-bonding interaction
Abstract
A thermally stable, four-fold interpenetrating diamondoid coordination network, Cd(imidazole-4-acrylate)2, with open intersecting channels within the interwoven nets, is strategically designed and synthesized on the basis of a spring-like net-to-net hydrogen-bonding interaction.
