What is it about?
Competetion to form tetra-acoboxylic acid or to form diesters from pyromelletic dianhydride by reactions of aqeous alcohol assisted by different metal complexes provides a means to prepare varities of carboxylate complexes. Anchillary lignads have denite role in decding complex formation reactions.

Why is it important?
Ring opening reactions of pyromelletic dinahydride involves various paths. Hence to prepare selective complex or coordination polymers through metal assisted reactions in presence of different ancillary ligands is a challange.
Perspectives
Selective coordination polymers of different dimensionality and also coordination polymers keeping free acids in different smaller fragments prepared through ring opening reactions of cyclic anhydrides will find applications in molecular recognition and in construction of new assemblies.
