What is it about?

This article shows role of anchillary ligand, metal ion and synthetic procedure that influence in formation in self-assembling of manganese and cadmium complexes.

Why is it important?

We could show that depending on reaction conditions trinuclear manganese carboxylate complexes are formed, where anchillary ligands acts as end-caps to inhibit polymer formation. A cadmium carboxylate coordination polymer is shown to dis-assemble in solution to form the discrete building units.

Perspectives

This study suggests that method of preparation influence nuclearity and substituent changes packing pattern to include guests (or additional anchillary ligand as guests). Solution and solid state properties may be different due to dis-assembling in solution.
