Molecular tectonics: dimensionality and geometry control of silver coordination networks based on pyrazolyl appended thiacalixarenes

Abstract

Combinations of six new tetrakis-pyrazolyl appended calix[4]arenes derivatives, blocked in 1,3-A conformation as coordinating tectons, with AgX salts (X = NO₃⁻, BF₄⁻, XF₆⁻(X = P, As and Sb)) lead to nine new silver coordination networks.
