A new family of zinc metal–organic framework polymorphs containing anthracene tetracarboxylates†
Abstract
Solvothermal reactions of an anthracene-based tetracarboxylic acid ligand, 5,5′-(anthracene-9,10-diyl)diisophthalic acid (H4ADIP) with Zn(NO3)2·6H2O afforded three novel metal–organic frameworks with unusual coordination geometries compared to the Cu analogue, PCN-14.
