A new inclusion compound consisting of 2D coordination layers of [Cd(SCN)(2)](infinity) and pillars of isonicotinamide dimers
Self-assembly of Cd2+, SCN-, isonicotinamide (isoNH(2)), and 9,10-dichloroanthracene gave a new inclusion compound formulated as [Cd(SCN)(2)(isoNH(2))(2)](.)1/2(9,10-dichloroanthracene) (1). This inclusion compound consists of 2D coordination layers of [Cd(SCN)(2)](infinity) and pillars of isoNH2 dimers. 9,10-dichloroanthracene molecules are included in zigzag channels.
