The insertion of alkali metal ions into a prevalent lanthanide-carboxylate coordination motif in heterometallic 3d–4f metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) leads to new MOFs whose structures are sensitively dependent on the size of the alkali ions used and with significantly enhanced effective free crystallographic volume.
