A crystal synthesis strategy based on a sequence of redox/acid–base/self-assembly/
crystallisation processes has been devised and successfully applied to prepare a number of …

Crystal engineering is a bridge between supramolecular and materials chemistry. The use of
organometallic molecules or ions in the construction of crystals with predefined architectures …

Structural variability and flexibility are distinctive properties of organometallic molecules
which are reflected in the patterns of intermolecular interactions established by mononuclear …

It is shown that the water‐soluble dicarboxylic cationic acid [(η5‐C5H4COOH) 2CoIII]+(1) is
an extremely versatile building block for the construction of organometallic crystalline …

Hydrogen bonding interactions are the strongest of the non-covalent interactions and are
highly directional (hence transportable and reproducible). With respect to hydrogen bonds …

The utilization of noncovalent interactions to construct molecular crystals is evaluated in the
context of inorganic and organometallic crystal engineering. The attention is focused on …

This review examines the supramolecular structures of substituted-ammonium salts of the
tetracarbonylcobaltate (− I) anion, Co (CO) 4−. The salts discussed contain cations of …

Two strategies are described for the construction of extended arrays of transition metal-
containing molecules linked via hydrogen bonds. The first approach connects the transition …

Phthalic acid [C6H4-1, 2-(COOH) 2, H2PA] and terephthalic acid [C6H4-1, 4-(COOH) 2,
H2TPA] have been reacted with aqueous solutions of the hydroxides [(η5-C5H5) 2Co]+[OH] …

Crystal engineering is the rational design and assembly of solid-state structures with desired
properties via the manipulation of intermolecular interactions, hydrogen bonding and metal …
