Abstract

An Ag^I dimer capped with labile organometallic diphosphorus ligands [Cp₂ Mo₂ (CO)₄ (η² -P₂ )] (Cp=C₅ H₅ ) acts as a highly pre-organized molecular precursor to direct the construction of 1D or 2D, and 3D organometallic-organic hybrid coordination polymers upon reaction with ditopic pyridine-based linkers. The formation of the supramolecular aggregates can be controlled by the stoichiometry of the organic molecules, and the mechanism is supported by DFT calculations.

Keywords: controlled synthesis; diphosphorus complex; hybrid coordination polymers; organometallic node; preorganized precursor.
