Abstract

Coordination geometries of transition metals play vital roles in the self-assembly process of supramolecular coordination complexes. Herein, seven-coordinate 3d metal ions were applied as templates and catalytically active sites for subcomponent self-assembly that resulted in a new category of covalent metallacycles. Single-crystal structures showed that the sizes, configurations, and functionalization of covalent metallacycles could be tuned by the selection of rigid dihydrazide, transition metal ions, and prefunctionalized subcomponents, respectively. Moreover, metallacycles decorated with carboxylic groups could be employed as precursors to prepare aerogels through hierarchical self-assembly, which also exhibited high catalytic activity for cycloaddition of CO2 into cyclic carbonates.
