Robust Non-Interpenetrating Coordination Frameworks from New Shape-Persistent Building Blocks
dataset
posted on 2006-02-20, 00:00 authored by Jonathan H. Chong, Mark J. MacLachlanNew shape-persistent ligands derived from triptycene were
synthesized, and reaction with copper iodide results in the assembly
of non-interpenetrating coordination frameworks with hydrophobic
void spaces. These structures are thermally stable and display
reversible solvent adsorption, and 1H NMR experiments show that
they can be used to remove benzene from water.
