Three-dimensional m × n arrays of metal ion clusters can be assembled as aromatic stacks of planar polynuclear metal complexes within columnar coordination cages. The polynuclear complexes and cage height program the final array structures of the metal ion clusters. Cyclic trinuclear Au(I) complexes (m = 3) assembled into trigonal prismatic arrays (n = 1-3) within the cages and the array structures were clearly shown by X-ray crystallographic analysis. A silver-sandwiched hetero-Au(3)-Ag-Au(3) cluster was also prepared by treating a hexanuclear Au(3)-Au(3) cluster with Ag(I) ion.
三维 m × n 阵列的金属离子簇可以组装成柱状配位笼内的平面多核金属配合物的芳香堆积。多核配合物和笼高决定了金属离子簇的最终阵列结构。通过 X 射线晶体学分析清楚地表明,循环三核金(I)配合物(m = 3)组装成笼内的三角棱柱阵列(n = 1-3),并显示了阵列结构。通过用银(I)离子处理六核金(III)-金(III)簇,还制备了银夹心杂金(III)-Au(3)-Au(3)簇。
