Exploring Defect-Engineered Metal–Organic Frameworks with 1,2,4-Triazolyl Isophthalate and Benzoate Linkers
Synthesis and characterization of DEMOFs (defect-engineered metal–organic frameworks) with coordinatively unsaturated sites (CUSs) for gas adsorption, catalysis, and separation are reported. We use the mixed-linker approach to introduce defects in Cu₂-paddle wheel units of MOFs [Cu₂(Me-trz-ia)₂] by…
