Abstract

The solvent coordination with sodium metal ions leads to the formation of coordination polymers from discrete to 3D networks based on a gold bis(dithiolene) complex {[AuIII(btdt)2]-} (btdt = 2,1,3-benzenethiadiazole-5,6-dithilolate); all these complexes show great discrepancy in dimensionality of the self assembled coordinated networks due to the effect of solvents, which we have explained in terms of the difference in geometry of the hybridized orbitals of the central carbon attached to the coordinating atom (N or O in the present study).
