title: Hydroxylated nanoballs: synthesis, crystal structure, solubility and crystallization on surfaces.
abstract: The reaction of equimolar amounts of Cu(NO3)2 and bdc-5-OH (bdc-5-OH = benzene-1,3-dicarboxylate-5-hydroxy) affords hydroxylated nanoballs with high solubility and an ability to form microcrystals on surfaces.
