Assembly of benzene-1,3,5-tris(methylenephosphonic acid) and guanidinium salt: Single crystal-X-ray characterisation and 31P, solid state NMR investigations

The co-crystallisation of benzene-1,3,5 1,3,5-tris(methylenephosphonic acid) [C9H15O9P3] 1 with guanidinium chloride [CH6N3]Cl, yields compound 2 that possesses the following composition [C

Multi-functional metal-organic frameworks assembled from a tripodal organic linker

The reaction between (benzene-1,3,5-triyltris(methylene))triphosphonic acid (H6bmt) and lanthanide chlorides, under typical hydrothermal conditions (180 °C for 3 days) or using microwave heating (5 minutes above 150 °C), led to the isolation of

Self-association of benzene-1,3,5-tris-(methylenephosphonic acid): Evidence of charge-assisted hydrogen bonds

The synthesis and the solid-state structure of benzene-tris-(methylene- phosphonic acid) is reported in the following article. Surprisingly the three methylenephosphonic acid groups are located on the same side of the benzene ring leading to the formation of an octopus shaped molecule. Furthermore the number of proton per phosphonic acid function is different from the expected value of two per phosphonic acid function. The single crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that this interesting behaviour arises from the formation of a dimer in the solid-state. Interestingly both charge-assisted hydrogen bonds and hydrogen bonds are observed in this dimer.
