Hierarchical Coordination Frameworks Based On Metal-Organic Dimeric Nanocapsules Comprising Praseodymium And Pyrogallol[4]Arene

Hierarchical coordination frameworks based on a novel praseodymium(III)-seamed metal-organic nanocapsule comprising dimerized pyrogallol[4]arene units are synthesized, characterized, and studied. Further, factors influencing the formation of a one-dimensional versus a three-dimensional coordination framework from the nanocapsule supramolecular building block are delineated.
