Quo vadis niobium? Divergent coordination behavior of early-transition metals towards MOF-5

Treatment of MOF-5 with NbCl[subscript 4](THF)[subscript 2] in acetonitrile leads to incorporation of Nb(iv) centers in a fashion that diverges from the established cation metathesis reactivity of this iconic material. A combination of X-ray absorption spectroscopy analysis and reactivity studies al...
