Abstract

Crystallization of irons-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (bpe) with Pb II acetate in the presence of CF 3COOH yielded [Pb(bpe)(O 2CCH 3)(O 2CCF 3)] n, and the solid-state structure contains spiral 1D coordination polymers entangled in a "warp and weft" interwoven structure. The absence of any weak interactions between the tangled strands in the 2D sheets make this a true molecular fabric structure.
