Solvent‐Induced Pore‐Size Adjustment in the Metal‐Organic Framework [Mg₃(ndc)₃(dmf)₄] (ndc = naphthalenedicarboxylate)

A High Heat of Adsorption for Hydrogen in Magnesium Formate

“…Dybtsev et al [10] observed hydrogen uptake but no nitrogen adsorption in Mn-formate, which is isostruc- tural to the Mg-formate reported in this work. For magnesiumbased frameworks with larger pores Senkovska et al [11,12] observed nitrogen uptake as expected for microporous materials.…”

“…The very rigid 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate (ndc) reacts in a solvothermal process with magnesium nitrate in either water or DMF [70]. Whereas in the presence of water molecules preferred coordination of H 2 O and dmf in [Mg(dmf) 2 (H 2 O) 4 ]ndc hinders the formation of extended three-dimensional networks, a porous network structure is obtained in the absence of water to yield the three-dimensional metal-organic framework of [Mg 3 (ndc) 3 (dmf) 4 ] (Fig.…”

New Polymorphs of Magnesium‐Based Metal–Organic Frameworks Mg3(ndc)3 (ndc = 2,6‐Naphthalenedicarboxylate)

“…[14,[22][23][24][25] It should be noted that the trinuclear SBU is the most important Mg cluster, because the same structural motif was found in all Mg MOFs with a rigid 3D framework and permanent porosity reported so far. [20,21,[25][26][27][28][29] Obviously, this SBU plays a key role in the formation of 3D networks in magnesium coordination polymers and a study of the multinuclear magnesium complexes assumes considerable importance.…”

“…[19] In a previous paper, we have reported a Mg-ndc-based MOF, [Mg 3 (ndc) 3 that the pore size of the Mg 3 (ndc) 3 networks can be adjusted by using different solvents (dmf, def). [20] In fact, TUDMOF-2 has the same network topology as [Mg 3 (ndc) 3 -(def) 4 ], [21] but the smaller solvent molecules induce the widening of pores, which leads to a larger specific surface area (SSA). In order to verify this concept, we have studied other solvents with smaller and larger diameters (Scheme 1).…”
