In contrast to the symmetrical 'orthogonal' 'stair' polymers recorded in the previous paper, a variety of distorted ('skewed') stair polymer systems have been synthesized and structurally characterized by using substituted pyridine bases. The structure of CuBr/pyridine (1 : 1) is recorded, completing the series for pyridine with all halides (CI, Br, I), together with full halide arrays for the bases pyridine-2-carbaldehyde and 4-benzoylpyridine, in which substituent interactions with metal or halide are insufficient to destroy the basic polymer form but nevertheless may induce substantial distortions from the orthogonal ideal.In contrast to the symmetrical 'orthogonal' 'stair' polymers recorded in the previous paper, a variety of distorted ('skewed') stair polymer systems have been synthesized and structurally characterized by using substituted pyridine bases.
