The synthesis and the crystal structure of a new halide-bridged polymer, namely catena-poly[bis (1,2,3-benzotriazolium) ] n running along the c-axis direction. The 1,2,3-benzotriazolium cations are linked between these polymer chains, via the water molecules, giving rise to left-and right-handed helical chains. Hirshfeld surface analysis and fingerprint plots were used to decode the intermolecular interactions in the crystal network and determine the contribution of the component units for the construction of the three-dimensional architecture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
