The combination, under mild conditions, of the methylenecarboxylic-appended tetramercaptotetrathiacalix[4]arene (TMTCA) derivative 4, blocked in the 1,3-alternate conformation, with acetate salts of octahedral copper(II), manganese(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II) leads to the formation, in the crystalline state, of high dimensional coordination networks. Depending on the nature of the used metal cations and bases (pyridine or non-coordinating Et₃N), six new different high-dimensional coordination polymers have been evidenced, presenting 4 different coordination patterns. All the compounds present a metal/4 ratio equal to 2/1. The formation of a 2D grid-like compound (4-Zn₂(Py)₄) and three different pseudodiamondoid-like 3D compounds (4-Co₂(Py)₆(H₂O)₂, 4-Ni₂(Py)₆(H₂O)₂, 4-Mn₂(Py)₄(MeOH)₂, 4-Mn₂(DMF)₂(MeOH)₄ and 4-Zn₂(MeOH)₄) is observed.

分子构造：基于亚甲基羧酸酯的四巯基硫杂杯[4]芳烃的1,3-交替构象的高维配位†

在温和条件下，将亚甲基羧酸加成的四巯基四硫杂杯[4]芳烃（TMTCA）衍生物4与八面体铜（II），锰（II），镍（乙酸盐）的乙酸盐结合，以1,3-交替构象封闭II）和锌（II）导致在结晶状态下形成高维配位网络。根据所用金属阳离子和碱（吡啶或非配位的Et ₃ N）的性质，已证实有六种新的不同的高维配位聚合物，表现出4种不同的配位方式。所有化合物都具有金属/ 4比率等于2/1。一个二维格子状化合物的形成（4 -Zn ₂（PY）₄三种不同pseudodiamondoid状3D化合物（）和4 -Co ₂（PY）₆（H ₂ O）₂，4 -Ni ₂（PY）₆（H ₂ O）₂，4 -Mn ₂（PY）₄（甲醇）₂，4 -Mn ₂（DMF）₂（MeOH）中₄和4 -Zn ₂（MeOH）中₄）被观察到。
