Before revision: Templating reactions 18-crown-6 can be synthesized from using potassium ion as the template cation Illustrations of a. metal-organic frameworks and b. supramolecular coordination complexes As studied in coordination chemistry, metal ions (usually transition metal ions ) exist in solution bound to ligands, In many cases, the coordination sphere defines geometries conducive to reactions either between ligands or involving ligands and other external reagents.
