title: Terminal co-ligand directed synthesis of a neutral, non-interpenetrated (10,3)-a metal-organic framework.
abstract: A neutral, non-interpenetrated porous metal-organic framework (MOF) having (10,3)-a topology, Cu(3,5-PDC)(DMF)(py), (DMF =N,N'-dimethylformamide, py = pyridine), has been constructed via the assembly of the achiral tri-connected building blocks 3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate (3,5-PDC) and CuN(CO2)2, synthesized in situ. Similarly, a 2D structure having (6,3) topology has been generated, each by means of terminal co-ligand directed synthesis.
