Pore surface engineering of microporous coordination polymers.
Pore surface control of microporous coordination polymers is of great interest due to the potentially exciting functionalities it presents, such as highly selective separation, chemisorption, and novel catalysts and sensors. A discussion of our unique strategy aimed at surface engineering using metalloligands, i.e., introduction of coordinatively unsaturated metal centers, is presented.
