What is the charge for Hexaminotriphenylene?

[deepalakshmi]

I have seen the structures like X3 (HITP)2 (X = Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Rh, Os, Ir). Can I replace X with Mg? Will it be stable?

No idea, but one thing definitely asks for attention: what does Mg miss, that all other metals listed have?

 

[deepalakshmi]

well, all the other elements are transition elements where as Mg is not.

 

[Borek]

Yep - that makes me doubt stability. But it is just a guess.

HITP MOFs are generally formed with metals in a square planar configuration, which isn’t found in magnesium compounds.
