Construction, structures, and magnetic studies of two cobalt(II) and nickel(II) coordination polymers displaying bex topology

The synthesis, structures, adsorption, and magnetic properties of two two-dimensional (2D) coordination polymers, [M(btca)1/2(bpe)1/2(H2O)2]n (M = Ni2+ (1) and Co2+ (2); H4btca = 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid; bpe = 1,2-di(4-pyridyl)ethane) constructed by...
