Abstract

A porous metal-organic framework (MOF), Fe 43-O) 2(BTB) 8/3(DMF) 2(H 2O) · (DMF) 10(H 2O) 2 (1) (BTB = benzene-1,3,5- tribenzoate, DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) has two interpenetrating 3D frameworks composed of fused cages and shows a stronger affinity for CO 2 than most other known highly porous MOFs. The unique tetranuclear iron-oxo clusters act as 8-connectors, which are linked by 3-connecting BTBs, to give a partially augmented the net (using the symbolism of O'Keeffe and co-workers). The underlying implications for (3,8)-coordinated networks are also discussed in relation to the framework structure of 1.
