Ionothermal Synthesis of a Novel 3D Cobalt Coordination Polymer with a Uniquely Reported Framework: [BMI]2[Co2(BTC)2(H2O)2]

<div>Connolly surfaces of the incorporated cations in their in situ conformations (left) and the cation pairs (right): (a) 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium, with data borrowed from the isoreticular correspondent prepared with nickel in place of cobalt, (b) 1-propyl-3-methylimidazolium, and (c) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium [<a href="/journals/amse/2017/3237247/#B28">28</a>]. (Volume and surface area values have been calculated with the grid interval of 0.15 Å and the Connolly radius being 1.0 Å.)</div>
