A designed metal–organic framework based on a metal–organic polyhedron

Abstract

A C3 symmetric ligand with three 1,3-benzenedicarboxylate units has been used to construct a metal–organic framework with a (3,24)-connected network topology, where the nanometre-sized metal–organic cuboctahedra (MOCs) have been incorporated solely into a cubic close packing (CCP) arrangement, which led to superoctahedral and supertetrahedral cavities.
