Abstract

Two new, microporous MOFs of framework composition ((CH₃)₂NH₂)₂[M₃O(HHTP)(HHTP˙)], M = Al³⁺, Ga³⁺, H₆HHTP = 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene, are described. Electron diffraction combined with molecular simulations show that these compounds crystallize in the β-cristobalite structure, containing a new type of trinuclear inorganic building unit for MOFs and radical anions.
