Promoting the formation of metal-carboxylate coordination to modulate the dimensionality of ultrastable lead halide hybrids.

ABSTRACT: Crystal engineering of metal halide hybrids is critical to investigate their structure-property relationship and advance their photophysical applications, but there have been limited efforts to employ coordination chemistry to precisely control the dimensionality of metal halide sublattices. Herein, we present a coordination-assembly synthetic strategy developed for the rational modulation of lead halide dimensionality, realizing the transition from 2D to 3D architectures. This manipulation is achieved by utilizing three organocarboxylates featuring the identical cyclohexane backbone unit. Specifically, the 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate and 1,2,4,5-cyclohexanetetracarboxylate ligands facilitate the formation of quasi-2D layered structures, characterized by weakly corrugated and strongly cor
