An assembly between 1,4-dicarboxylbenzene-2,3-dithiol (H2dcbdt) and different transition metal ions successfully produced 2D metal–organic frameworks (M-dcbdt, M = Ni, Co or Fe) composed of unprecedented butterfly-shaped metal-bis(dithiolene) (MS4) linkers in one-pot fashion. Such strategy provides easier access to the [MS4]-rich network and lowers the prerequisite to explore their applications.
