Application of metal–organic frameworks with coordinatively unsaturated metal sites in storage and separation of methane and carbon dioxide

The metal–organic frameworks M2(dhtp)(H2O)2·8H2O (CPO-27-M, M = Ni, Mg) can be activated to give the empty framework compounds M2(dhtp) with a honeycomb analogous structure containing large micropores of 11–12 Å diameter and a high concentration of open metal sites. These sites play a major role in ... View More
