Net topology

zbn

Ingested production record from rcsr+mofplus. Per-field provenance in field_sources.

64 vertices and 144 edges in the unit cell. 54 of them leave the cell and continue into a neighbouring one; those are drawn in the accent colour and end at a hollow node. Squares are vertices of coordination 5 or more, circles of 4 or fewer. Drag to rotate, or focus the figure and use the arrow keys.

Crystallographic description

Spacegroup: I41/amd (No. 141)
Cell lengths: a = 7.3880 Å, b = 7.3880 Å, c = 2.7149 Å
Cell angles: α = 90.00°, β = 90.00°, γ = 90.00°
Atoms in cell: 64
Transitivity pqrs: 2, 7, *, *
Catenated: no; No, computed from the graph of the net itself rather than read off its name: mofpp.periodicity v1 finds a single copy, so it is not interpenetrated on the MOF+ deposit, the graph of the uploaded topology file. Interpenetration is counted here as the number of separate copies of the net that share one repeat unit, so this is a measurement of the topology and not a marker in a string.

(rcsr)The canonical Systre key, copied verbatim from the local RCSR Systre archive of 2019-06-01 — and corroborated here rather than carried on the word of the archive alone. Systre 19.6.0 was run on the MOF+ deposit, the graph of the uploaded topology file and computed the same key, character for character, so two independent statements of the canonical form of this net agree. The computed key is served under topology.symmetry with the graph it was computed from and the version that computed it. The checksum beside this key is still the one the archive carries, copied from the same block and neither computed nor verified here.

Vertices

The mapping of coordination sequences onto vertex classes that the source supplied was checked against a walk over the periodic topology of the net itself, one walk per vertex class, and agreed. The sequences are the values the source supplied; the walk settled nothing but which class each one describes.

Corroborated: 64 of 64 stored symbols were recomputed from the topology of the net itself and agree, entry for entry. A vertex symbol of this collection names the shortest cycle at each angle of a vertex, and mofpp.rings v2 (mofplus-deposit) walks those cycles on the deposit graph. The strings shown are still the values the source supplied; what was checked is that they are the values this net has.

Site symmetry. 64 of 64 vertex rows carry one, attributed to computed:mofpp.site_symmetry-v1 (spglib-2.7.0, mofplus-deposit). The site symmetry on each vertex row is the point group of the operations of the net's ideal space group that leave that vertex where it is — its Wyckoff position in the net's maximum-symmetry embedding. It is a property of the net, not of any material built on it, and it is what says whether a four-coordinated vertex is tetrahedral (-43m) or square-planar (4/mmm) — a distinction the coordination number cannot make. Computed in I41/amd, setting 2, by mofpp.site_symmetry v1 with spglib 2.7.0, from the embedding Systre 19.6.0 computed on the mofplus-deposit. spglib determined the same space group from those coordinates independently, which is a check of two different computations against each other rather than a restatement.

One row per distinct vertex. The coordination sequence counts how many vertices lie at each topological distance; the vertex symbol names the shortest ring at each angle of the vertex; the site symmetry is the vertex's Wyckoff position in the net's maximum-symmetry embedding. The three columns do not carry the same warrant: which of them was corroborated, which was not, and which was computed here, is stated above the table.

Computed topology

Computed here from the quotient graph of the net itself, not transcribed from either source: periodicity, symmetry, invariants and rings, on the MOF+ deposit, the graph of the uploaded topology file and the RCSR archive key, the canonical key the archive states, by mofpp.invariants 2, mofpp.periodicity 1, mofpp.rings 2, mofpp.site_symmetry spglib-2.7.0 systre-19.6.0 v1 and systre 19.6.0 sha256:0d272e98a1a21669bc67a809b95c014ba2a2fb39a6fd2147039201216ab0d48d options:--systreKey wrapper:2. Each basis is analysed on its own and the results are never merged, because a MOF+ deposit and an RCSR archive key are two different graphs that usually describe the same net and sometimes do not. The transitivity r and s are computed by nothing in this project: they count the faces and the tiles of a natural tiling, and none is derived here. That is a measured limit rather than a job not yet done. The Gavrog library this project runs Systre from was tried on 2026-09-12: for a 3-periodic net it has no route from a net to a tiling at all, and for a 2-periodic net it has one that works, whose result is a plane tiling with faces and no tiles and so a transitivity triple rather than an r and an s. This block therefore states p and q and leaves r and s unknown rather than filling them. Every entry carries the tool, its version and input_checksum, the checksum of the graph that was actually analysed, so that a result computed from the graph this record holds now can be told from one computed before it changed. Nothing here rebuilds a graph to check that, so no entry below is claimed to be current.

Net point symbol (mofplus-deposit): (4.6.8)(3^6.4^4.6^2.7.8^2)
Longest ring searched (mofplus-deposit): 40 Some angle of this net has no ring within that bound. Those angles are written * rather than given a ring that was never found.
Computed by (rings, mofplus-deposit): mofpp.rings 2 — ok

Computed from the graph itself, one row per set of vertices carrying the same symbols. The cycle symbol follows the MOF+ convention — the shortest cycle at each angle — and is the one comparable with the stored column above; the RCSR ring symbol names the shortest *ring* at each angle, with * where none exists within the bound, and is a different quantity.

Cross-checks

Name against the computed key: corroborated-by-systre-key
Stored symbols against the computed ones: corroborated: 64 of 64 vertex rows agree with mofpp.rings v2 (mofplus-deposit).
Stored sequences against the computed ones: corroborated: 64 of 64 vertex rows agree with mofpp.invariants v2 (mofplus-deposit), compared on the stored length.
Catenation against the name heuristic: No; agrees with the computed value

Position in the collection

RCSR index: 2850 (derived) Derived by this site, not published by RCSR: the 1-based position of the symbol in the ascending ASCII-lexicographic ordering of the 2930 symbols in the RCSR Systre archive of 2019-06-01. RCSR does not number its nets; this is our ordering of their symbols and nothing more.
Complexity rank: 1999 The order the ingest processed this net in, simplest first. A different number from the RCSR index above, meaning a different thing.
