✦ Synopsis


The reaction of CuI with cinchonine (an organic donor-acceptor chromophore) afforded a homochiral 3D diamondoid network [Cu 4 I 4 (cinchonine) 2 ] n (1) containing a cubane cluster (Cu 4 I 4 ) as a connecting node. This is the first homochiral coordination polymer with diamondoid nets containing a cluster as a connecting note. Its thermal stability and solid state optical properties such as fluorescence, circular dichroism and second-harmonic generation response were also reported.
