Gschwind, Fabienne Sereda, Olha Fromm, Katharina M. 2009-10-14 The multitopic ligand O,O′-bisnicotinic acid tetraethylene glycol, <b>L</b>, was designed for the coordination of two distinct types of metal ions. In this work, we describe how the O-donor part of <b>L</b> is used to coordinate to alkaline earth metal ions and that the N-donor atoms of <b>L</b> bind to group 11 elements. This makes <b>L</b> a suitable ligand for the combination of both metal ion types within the same compound. This concept will be exemplified by highlighting the pure Ca²⁺ complexes, a Cu⁺-coordination polymer network, as well as the mixed-metal compound, which can be used as a single-source precursor for mixed-metal oxide materials. application/pdf https://folia.unifr.ch/global/documents/301246 https://folia.unifr.ch/documents/301246/files/fromm_mld.pdf https://folia.unifr.ch/documents/301246/files/fromm_mld_sm.pdf https://folia.unifr.ch/documents/301246/files/fromm_mld_sm.cif.txt eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1021/ic9009064 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess License undefined Inorganic Chemistry. - 2009, vol. 48, no. 22, p. 10535–10547 info:eu-repo/classification/udc/54 Multitopic ligand design: a concept for single-source precursors http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
