Lattice-Imposed Geometry in Metal-Organic Frameworks: Lacunary Zn4O Clusters in MOF-5 Serve as Tripodal Chelating Ligands for Ni2+
The inorganic clusters in metal–organic frameworks can be used to trap metal ions in coordination geometries that are difficult to achieve in molecular chemistry. We illustrate this concept by using the well-known basic carboxylate clusters in Zn[subscript 4]O(1,4-benzenedicarboxylate)3 (MOF-5) as t...
