Abstract
The structural characterization of a 3D nanoporous complex {[Cu-6(tib)(8)(O H)(4)](OH)(8). 22H(2)O . 4MeOH}(n) 1 [tib = 1,3,5-tris- (imidazol-1-ylmethy l)benzene] assembled from the tripodal ligand tib and Cu(MeCO2)(2) shows th at pi-pi interactions resulting from the novel T-shaped conformation of the ligand are the key trigger for the construction of the backbone of a frame work with channels of size 12.00 x 18.91 and 10.30 x 13.66 Angstrom.
