Abstract: a novel microporous polymer containing aface-centered cubic (fcu) topological network with the highest connectivity, based on a dodecanuclear copper(i) cluster as a twelve-connected node, was synthesized by a simultaneous redox, sulfurization, and self-assembly reaction under solvothermal conditions. The concept of using a cluster as a building block to construct high-connectivity networks is therefore feasible, and the reactions confirm the transformation of inorganic into organic sulfur. The result provides a new avenue for designing and generating new solid-state materials based on networks of high-coordinate nodes linked by bridging ligands.

Keywords: cluster compounds, copper, S ligands, solvothermal synthesis, topological networks
