| Abstract: | The syntheses and structures of two new ZnII complexes, a 2D graphite‐like layer {[Zn(PIA)H2O] ? H2O}n ( 1 ) and an independent 1D single‐walled metal–organic nanotube (SWMONT) {[Zn2(PIA)2(bpy)2] ? 2.5 H2O ? DMA}n ( 2 ), have been reported based on a “Y”‐shaped 5‐(pyridine‐4‐yl)isophthalic acid ligand (H2PIA). Interestingly, the 2D graphite‐like layer in 1 can transform into the independent 1D SWMONT in 2 with addition of 2,2′‐bipyridine (bpy), which represents the first successfully experimental example of an independent 1D metal–organic nanotube generated from a 2D layer by a “rolling‐up” mechanism. |
