Abstract

The synthesis of highly crystalline macro-meso-microporous monolithic Cu₃(btc)₂ (HKUST-1; btc³⁻ = benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate) is demonstrated by direct conversion of Cu(OH)₂-based monoliths while preserving the characteristic macroporous structure. The high mechanical strength of the monoliths is promising for possible applications to continuous flow reactors.
