Abstract:We succeeded in the alignment of
π skeletons, resulting in the formation of anisotropic crystals.
The combination of plumbacyclopentadienylidene, which has a divalent
lead atom incorporated into the π skeleton, and 1,4-dioxane
afforded a coordination polymer, where the π skeletons are completely
aligned in the same direction. The resulting plumbylene chains are
also aligned in the same direction in the solid state, and therefore
the crystals are noncentrosymmetric, showing second-harmonic generation

The bipyridyl-terminated cluster [(R4-bipySn)4S6] (R4-bipy = CMe2CH2C(Me)N–NC(H)-4-C10H7N2) traps ZnCl2 units from solution, which affects its optical properties.
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.
