MOFS MIT EINER HOHEN OBERFLÄCHE UND METHODE ZU DEREN HERSTELLUNG

摘要

The present invention provides a metal-organic framework ("MOF") comprising a plurality of metal clusters and a plurality of multidentate linking ligands. Each metal of the plurality of metal clusters comprises one or more metal ions. Each ligand of the plurality of multidentate linking ligands connects adjacent metal clusters. The present invention also provides a method of forming the metal-organic framework. The method of the invention comprises combining a solution comprising one or metal ions with a multidentate linking ligand having a sufficient number of accessible sites for atomic or molecular adsorption that the surface area of the resulting metal-organic framework is greater than 2,900 m2/g.
