Metal–organic replica of chiral natural material -SnF2: an enantiopure binodal (3,5)-connected net based on triangular and trigonal bipyramidal coordination

Jie Qin, Chao Qin, Xin-Long Wang, En-Bo Wang and Zhong-Min Su


A chiral (3,5)-connected metal–organic framework, based on triangular and trigonal bipyramidal coordiantion, exhibits an unprecedented -SnF2 topology, and represents the first heterocoordinated chiral metal–organic analogue presently known with a natural material topology.
