1. An adsorbent material comprising:
a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) material comprising linkers selected from the group consisting of an optionally substituted benzimidazole linker, an optionally substituted azabenzimidazole linker, an optionally substituted purine linker, and any combination thereof; and a cross-linked polymer comprising multiple monomers containing a moiety corresponding in structure to Formula (I): wherein R1 and R2 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, C1-C6-alkyl, aryl, C(R3)3 in which each R3 is independently hydrogen or aryl; or, taken together, R1 and R2 form a monocyclic or polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon.
