Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are a fascinating class of novel inorganic–organic hybrid
materials. They are essentially based on classic coordination chemistry and hold much …

Conspectus Since the first description of coordination complexes, many types of metal–
ligand interactions have creatively been used in the chemical sciences. The rich …

Surface coordination chemistry has been traditionally associated with analogies between
metal–ligand bonding in coordination compounds and chemisorptive interactions, the …

We previously contributed a review of bis (terpyridine) metal complex wires (Coord. Chem.
Rev. 251 (2007) 2674) in which we described the bottom-up fabrication of complex wires on …

We demonstrate here the assembly of a nanolayer of electrochromic iron complexes on the
top of composite layers of cobalt and ruthenium complexes. Depending on the ratio of the …

Layer-by-layer bottom-up crystal engineering of metal− organic crystals at the surface of
sapphire or glass from organic (rubeanic acid and derivatives) and inorganic (Cu2+) …

Accelerated growth of a molecular-based material that is an active participant in its
continuing self-propagated assembly has been demonstrated. This nonlinear growth …

Polycrystalline halogen-bonded assemblies fabricated by physical vapor deposition (PVD)
exhibit controllable morphologies and microstructures. Although the solid-state packing may …

Nanopatterned thin films of the metal–organic framework {Fe (bpac)[Pt (CN) 4]}(bpac= bis (4‐
pyridyl) acetylene) are elaborated by the combination of a sequential assembly process and …

Here we present the critical role of the molecular structure and reaction parameters on the
nature of thin-film growth, using a versatile two-step assembly method with organic and …
