Synthesis and characterization of molecular rectangles based upon rhenium Thiolate dimers
Tetrametallic molecular rectangles have been synthesized by combining rhenium(I) thiolate dimers with difunctional pyridyl and pyrazyl type ligands. The proposed rectangular structures are supported by H-1 NMR, MS, and IR absorption measurements. In addition, crystal structures of two of the rectangles are presented showing frameworks with dimensions 3.81 x 11.57 and 3.69 x 7.22 Angstrom, as defined by the rhenium atoms.
