Self-assembly of 2D Borromean networks through hydrogen-bonding recognition

Abstract

Assembly of a tripodal ligand tris(2-benzimidazoylmethyl)amine with the long rod-like spacer N1,N4-bis(pyridin-4-ylmethylene)-benzene-1,4-diamine in the presence of M(ClO4)2 (M = Cd2+ and Mn2+) or H3O·ClO4 leads to formation of 63-hcb layers which interweave in a parallel fashion to give the first examples of hydrogen-bonding Borromean links.
