Direct synthesis of a semiconductive double-helical phosphorus allotrope in a metal-organic framework
Abstract There remains much ambiguity regarding the structure of red phosphorus. We report the adsorption and photo-polymerisation of P4 molecules encapsulated in an indium(III)-based metal-organic framework to afford a double-helical chain composite comprising of [P8] units. The similarity between...
