Proton switching of polarity in metalloamphiphile crystals

Abstract

The metalloamphiphile [Zn(1-decylammonio-8-methylsarcophagine)](ClO4)3·2H2O crystallises in the non-centrosymmetric space group P1 to give a polar crystal, which can be converted to one with a centrosymmetric lattice (space groupI2/a) through deprotonation.
