      Discrete and encapsulated molecular grids: Homometallic Mn15 and heterometallic Mn24Ni2 aggregates 

      Charalambous, Maria; Zartilas, Sotiris M.; Moushi, Eleni E.; Papatriantafyllopoulou, Constantina; Manos, Manolis J.; Stamatatos, Theocharis C.; Mukherjee, S.; Nastopoulos, Vassilios; Christou, George; Tasiopoulos, Anastasios J. (2014)
      Two molecular grid-like clusters are reported, one is a discrete [3 × 5] grid and the other a [3 × 4] grid within a Mn12Ni 2 loop. Both Mn24Ni2 and Mn15 aggregates display novel and aesthetically pleasing structures with ...
