Unprecedented and highly symmetric (6,8)-connected topology in a porous metal–organic framework through a Zn–Ti heterometallic approach†
Abstract
The Zn(II)–Ti(IV) heterometallic approach is successfully adopted to produce a highly symmetric, binodal metal–organic framework with unprecedented topology in network solids. This material, ZTOF-2, possesses permanent porosity as shown by reversible sorption of various gases.
