A cage-based cationic body-centered tetragonal metal–organic framework: single-crystal to single-crystal transformation and selective uptake of organic dyes†
Abstract
A cage-based cationic body-centered metal–organic framework was successfully synthesized using a custom-designed bifunctional triazolcarboxylate ligand. It shows interesting single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation upon solvent exchange process and selective uptake of organic dyes.
