Engineering New Metal-Organic Frameworks Built from Flexible Tetrapyridines Coordinated to Cu(II) and Cu(I)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A series of new metal-organic frameworks have been constructed by the coordination of Cu(II) and Cu(I) with pentaerythrityl tetrakis(4-pyridyl) ether (1 = PETPE), a flexible tetradentate ligand. Networks derived from Cu(OOCCH(3))(2), Cu(NO(3))(2), and CuBF(4) proved to have different topologies (diamondoid, PtS, and SrAl(2), respectively). This reflects (1) the ability of PETPE (1) to adopt diverse conformations and (2) the varied geometries of complexes of Cu(II) and Cu(I). Extended PETPE (2), a tetrapyridine with phenyl spacers inserted into the pentaerythrityl core of PETPE (1), yielded an expanded version of the PtS network derived from simple PETPE (1) and Cu(NO(3))(2). However, increases in the ability of the network to accommodate guests were largely offset by interpenetration of independent networks. Attempts to thwart interpenetration by converting ligand 2 into methyl-substituted derivative 3 led to the construction of networks with alternative topologies. In particular, the reactions of ligand 3 with both Cu(II) and Cu(I) yielded isostructural Pt(3)O(4) networks, despite the preference of the two oxidation states for coordination spheres with different geometries. Together, these observations demonstrate that PETPE (1) and related compounds are useful ligands for constructing metal-organic frameworks, with a distinctive ability to accommodate a single metal in different oxidation states, as well as to adapt to a metal in a single oxidation state but with different counterions or secondary ligands.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
