Synthesis, crystal structure, and gas adsorption property of microporous solid by assembly of 1-D coordination polymer with a zigzag skeleton

Abstract

A crystalline solid, [Rh(II)2(bza)4(1,5-nptd)] n, (bza and 1,5-nptd = benzoate and 1,5-naphthyridine), was synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis; the microporous compound demonstrates gas adsorbency with a N2 BET surface area of 291.6 m2 g-1. © 2003 Elsevier B.V.
