Abstract

We illustrate a new approach toward the synthesis of a porous supramolecular honeycomb based on triptycene. A coordination polymer has been prepared where the triptycene groups are linked through triptycenesemiquinonediimine platinum complexes, but the product is disordered rather than the intended honeycomb structure. A model platinum complex and its 15N-labeled isotopomer have been prepared and characterized.
