Author interpretations and caveats

Paraphrased for this database from the authors’ stated interpretations — never quoted verbatim — and kept separate from reported measurements.

Application RelevanceSupport assessment: High

The framework has one-dimensional vacant spaces of 3.4 A x 3.4 A, supporting its description as a porous coordination polymer.

Caveat: No gas-sorption surface area or pore-volume measurement is reported in the supplied documents.

CaveatSupport assessment: High

Tentatively refined CH3CN/H2O molecules in the channel are not fixed but moving even at 100 K.

Caveat: The refinement is described as tentative and based on large solvent thermal ellipsoids.

Phase AssignmentSupport assessment: High

Cu[Cu(pdt)2] is assigned as the divalent CuII[CuII(pdt)2] state rather than CuI[CuIII(pdt)2].

Caveat: Assignment uses structural and magnetic evidence; residual pore electron density could not be assigned to a specific molecule in the primary structure.

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: Medium

The relatively high conductivity is attributed to donor/acceptor building units and charge bistability between CuI[CuIII(pdt)2] and CuII[CuII(pdt)2].

Caveat: Mechanistic attribution is proposed by the authors; conductivity contact geometry is not reported.

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: Medium

The magnetic interaction geometry can form triangular lattices and magnetic frustration in Cu[Cu(pdt)2].

Caveat: Authors explicitly caution that computed coupling quantitativity may be limited because calculations used two distinct units.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: High

Cu[Cu(pdt)2] shows semiconductive temperature-dependent electrical conductivity with an Arrhenius activation energy of 193 meV.

Caveat: Figure-derived endpoint conductivities are approximate visual estimates.
