(dpdo) produced novel molecular species [M(dpdo)4(H2O)2]2+, which
hold a tetrahedral configuration notwithstanding their octahedral
environment around the metal centers. The tetrahedral moieties
are further assembled through hydrogen bonds between peripheral
NO ends of dpdo ligands and coordinated water molecules, giving
rise to 3D diamondoid networks.
