Self-assembly of a novel 3D copper(I)-tetrazolate supramolecular framework via interpenetration of porous 2D double-layer motifs

A novel 3D organic-inorganic hybrid supramolecular solid constructed from interpenetrating (3,4,5)-connected 2D porous nets, namely, [Cu6(TAZ)4(CN)2]n (1) (TAZ = tetrazole) was successfully synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction, elemental analysis, FT-IR, Raman spectrum, DT/TGA and solid state photoluminescence measurements.
