From discrete molecule, to polymer, to MOF: mapping the coordination chemistry of CdIIusing113Cd solid-state NMR

Studies of three related Cd^IIsystems derived from the ligand 2,4,6-tris(2-pyrimidyl)-1,3,5-triazine, reveal an exceptionally rare example of¹¹³Cd–¹¹³CdJcoupling that is detectable by solid-state NMR (²J_Cd–Cd= ∼65 Hz).
