The Synthesis and Photocatalytic Properties of a Cuprous Iodide-based Coordination Polymer

A staple-shaped linear coordination polymer containing a single metal node was constructed via a conformational adaptive synthesis strategy. Such well-defined coordination polymer CP 1 could aggregate into a highly-ordered two-dimensional supramolecular framework with ultrasmall pores through weak intermolecular π⋯π stacking interactions. The emissive complex CP 1 showed excellent photocatalytic activity for azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAC) in solution at room temperature.
