Abstract

Interwoven networks have been isolated from the self-assembly of the flexible long-chain sebaconitrile (1,10-decanedinitrile) and different silver(I) salts. These networks include an eightfold interpenetrated diamondoid frame (I), a fourfold interwoven 3D four-connected frame topologically related to the prototypical SrAl2 (II), an infinitely catenated 2D multilayer (III), and a 3D entangled array (IV).
