Zinc(II)-Directed Self-Assembly of Metal–Organic Nanocapsules
Jerry L. Atwood, Asanka S. Rathnayake, Charles L. Barnes
The synthesis and structural characterization of a novel zinc-seamed hexameric nanocapsule, [Zn24(PgC5)6], is presented. The overall structure of this nanocapsule is similar to other hexameric nanocapsule reported so far. However, two sides of this capsule bent inward forming, slight, concave distortions on the framework.
