A Twelve-Connected Cu₆S₄ Cluster-Based Coordination Polymer

Abstract

Hydrothermal reaction of Cu(MeCO2)2, (4-pyridylthio)acetic acid, and NH4SCN resulted in a metal-organic framework [Cu3(4-pyridinethiolate)2(CN)] which has twelve-connected face-centered cubic topology with Cu6S4 clusters as nodes.
