A highly connected porous coordination polymer with unusual channel structure and sorption properties.
Making connections: A hydroxy-centered trinuclear nickel cluster has been employed to construct a highly connected, highly symmetric framework with a uninodal nine-connected topology. An array of triakis tetrahedra leads to a biporous intersecting-channel system (see picture).
