Bismuth-based heterometallic clusters capped by thiacalixarene for visible-light photothermal conversion

Two isostructural heterometallic coordination clusters, [BiM2(HTC4A)2(CH3COO)]2 (+solvents) (Bi2M4, M= Co or Ni, H4TC4A = p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene), were synthesised under solvothermal conditions and structurally characterised by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The Bi2M4 clusters...
