Post-synthetic linker installation: an unprecedented strategy to enhance iodine adsorption in metal–organic frameworks†
Abstract
Post-synthetic linker installation in a single-crystal-to-single-crystal manner was crystallographically demonstrated in thorium-based metal–organic frameworks (Th-MOFs), not only leading to the discovery of an extremely rare framework de-interpenetration, but also representing an unprecedented strategy for boosting iodine adsorption capacity.
