Abstract
A strategy for achieving high-connected robust MOFs by linear ligands is exemplified by the construction of MTAF-4, a rare (6, 9)-connected 10 MOF based upon the custom-designed bifunctional linear ligand, 4-(1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-benzoate that connects two types of high-connected zinc cluster moieties generated in situ. MTAF-4 is robust and permanently microporous and demonstrates interesting high-pressure gas 15 sorption performances.
