Abstract

A hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF) was obtained via the formation of a cyclic dimer hydrogen-bonded organic macrocycle (HOM) through rational molecular design. The ordered arrangement of HOMs formed permanently porous 1D channels in the HOF. These channels exhibited the selective adsorption of naphthalene.
