“…Many open metal-organic frameworks have been obtained using linear 4,4'-bipyridine (4,4'-bpy) and 4,4'-bipyridine-like N,N'-donor ligands [7][8][9][10]. Compared to linear N,N'-donor ligands, bent N,N'-donor ligands 2,5-bis(4-pyridylethynyl)thiophene, 2,5-bis(4-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole and 2,5-bis(4-pyridyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole are less frequently used as building blocks for metal-organic frameworks [11][12]. However, there is a higher possibility of obtaining the unexpected, unpredictable and interesting structure depending on the biting angle of these bent N,N'-donor ligands.…”
