Novel octanuclear copper(i) metallomacrocycles and their transformation into hexanuclear 2-dimensional grids of copper(i) coordination polymers containing cyclodiphosphazanes, [(μ-NtBuP)2(NC4H8X)2] (X = NMe, O)

Abstract

Novel octanuclear copper(I) macrocyclic complexes and hexanuclear 2-dimensional grid-like polymers containing [P(micro-NR)](2) scaffold in which the anionic moieties are trapped inside the cationic macrocyclic cavities are reported.
