Porous Crystal Derived from a Tricarboxylate Linker with Two Distinct Binding Motifs

摘要

Although remarkable advances in the understanding of structure— property relationships of porous coordination polymers have taken place over the past decade, there remains a pressing need to design higher performance materials. However, it is just a matter of time before commercial applications in gas storage, catalysis, and separations are realized because the combination of high surface area, tunable functionality, and defined pore structure are unrivaled by other classes of materials.
