Solid-state conversion of a MOF to a metal-organo polymeric framework (MOPF) via [2+2] cycloaddition reaction

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Apr 11;50(28):3665-7. doi: 10.1039/c4cc00228h.

Abstract

The bpeb ligands aligned in a slip-stacked manner in a two-fold interpenetrated non-porous metal-organic framework (MOF) [Zn2(bpeb)(bdc)(fa)2] undergo [2+2] cycloaddition reaction in a single-crystal to single-crystal manner to a non-interpenetrated 3D structure with a new topology comprising an organic polymer ligand and a 2D coordination polymer.
