Chromium(III) MOFs; Rigid-acs based pacs; Highly porous; Stable MOFs; Water adsorption
ABSTRACT
Novel pacs-type chromium(III) metal-organic frameworks with highly porosity and structural stability are obtained via a one-pot dual-modulator synthetic strategy. These Cr-pacs can be viewed as the partitioned structures of rigid acs frameworks, with the consideration of both size and symmetry matching between acs forming ligand (hexatopic carboxylate ligand) and partitioning ligand (tridentate pyridine ligand). -
