The crystal structure of solvated [Zn(tpt)(2/3)(SiF6)(H2O)(2)-(MeOH)I
[tpt = 2,4,6-tris(4-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine] is comprised of eight ind
ependent [Zn-3(tpt)(2)](n) networks with the (10,3)-a topology, four o
f one handedness and four of the other, which interpenetrate in a rema
rkable way, aspects of which were postulated by A. F. Wells almost twe
nty years ago.
