“…A tenet of crystal engineering, which belongs to supramolecular chemistry as well, is to control multidimensional network topologies in crystals constructed from molecular building blocks that are connected by means of mutual interactions of H-bonds and metal-coordination bonds [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. For example, three-dimensional (3-D) molecular networks such as complicated (10,3)-a and (10,3)-b nets in crystals can also be produced in the field of crystal engineering by a rational design of artificial molecular building blocks [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43].…”

Anionic tris (biimidazolate) nickelate (II) ([Ni(Hbim) 3 ] − ), which is a hydrogen-bonding (H-bonding) molecular building block, undergoes self-organization into honeycomb-sheet superstructures connected by complementary intermolecular H-bonds. The crystal obtained from the stacking of these sheets is assembled into channel frameworks, approximately 2 nm wide, that clathrate two cationic K + -crown ether derivatives organised into one-dimensional (1D) double-columnar arrays. In this study, we have shown that all five cationic guest-included crystals form nanochannel structures that clathrate the 1-D double-columnar arrays of one of the four types of K + -crown ether derivatives, one of which induces a polymorph. This is accomplished by adaptably fitting two types of anionic [Ni(Hbim) − can assemble large cations such as K + crown-ether derivatives into double-columnar arrays by highly recognizing flexible H-bonding arrangements with two host networks of ΔΛ-ΔΛ-ΔΛ · · · and ΔΔΔ-ΛΛΛ · · · .

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Hydrogen bonds play vital roles in highly efficient and specific biological reactions and are essential for molecular recognition and self-organization of molecules in supramolecular chemistry. The coordination environment of the metal is generally constrained by the macrocyclic ligand, so the metal may be considered to be an inert substituent on the hydrogen bonding organic fragment.…”

The area broadly described as crystal engineering is currently expanding at a brisk pace. Imaginative schemes for supramolecular synthesis, and correlations between molecular structure, crystal packing and physical properties are presented in the literature with increasing regularity. In practice, crystal engineering can be many different things; synthesis, statistical analysis of structural data, ab initio calculations etc. Consequently, we have been provided with a new playing field where chemists from traditionally unconnected parts of the spectrum have exchanged ideas, defined goals and made creative contributions to further progress not only in crystal engineering, but also in other disciplines of chemistry. Crystal engineering is delineated by the nature and structural consequences of intermolecular forces, and the way in which such interactions are utilized for controlling the assembly of molecular building blocks into infinite architectures. Although it is important to acknowledge that a crystal structure is the result of a subtle balance between a multitude of non-covalent forces, this article will focus on design strategies based upon the hydrogen bond and will present a range of approaches that have relied on the directionality and selectivity of such interactions in the synthesis of predictable one-, twoand three-dimensional motifs.
