Metal removal from the secondary building unit of bio-MOF-1 by adenine N6-alkylation while retaining the overall 3D porous topology

摘要

A novel approach to modify the SBU of the well-known bio-MOF-1 by reducing the nuclearity of the metal cluster while retaining the topology of the anionic 3D framework is reported. The resulting BioMOF is prone to accept H ions from the organic counterions providing a route to obtain neutral frameworks.
