Supramolecular isomerism in cadmium (II) coordination polymers from benzene-1,3,5-tribenzoate (BTB): Syntheses, structures and luminescent properties

By tuning the reaction media, three iso-structural compounds 1α, 1β and 1γ built from trinuclear Cd3(OCO)6 unit have been synthesized, and exhibit supramolecular isomerism induced from the different packing fashion.473
