A ligand with a sharper bend of 127<sup>o</sup> (dipyridylfuran<ref>Dipyridylfuran differs from dipyridylthiophene in that oxygen replaces the sulfur.</ref>) forms a smaller polyhedron, M12L24<ref name="tominaga-fujita-2004">PMID: 15455450</ref>. | ||
Interestingly, mixtures of the two ligands (149 and 127 degrees) form only one size of polygon: a 3:7 mixture respectively (and up to 10:0) forms only M24L48, while a 2:8 mixture (and down to 0:10) forms only M12L24<ref name="sun-fujita-2010" />. | Interestingly, mixtures of the two ligands (149 and 127 degrees) form only one size of polygon: a 3:7 mixture respectively (and up to 10:0) forms only M24L48, while a 2:8 mixture (and down to 0:10) forms only M12L24<ref name="sun-fujita-2010" />. | ||
