Giant single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformations associated with chiral interconversion induced by elimination of chelating ligands
Crystalline materials that undergo large structural changes in response to external stimuli remain rare. Here the authors report a Zinc(II) complex that undergoes a two-step reversible single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation via thermal removal of ethylene glycol chelating ligands; this resu...
