A rod packing microporous metal-organic framework with open metal sites for selective guest sorption and sensing of nitrobenzene.
A microporous MOF [Zn(4)(OH)(2)(1,2,4-BTC)(2)] (1,2,4-BTC = Benzene-1,2,4-tricarboxylate) with two immobilized open metal Zn(2+) sites was obtained by solvothermal reaction, which exhibits highly selective guest sorption and sensing of nitrobenzene.
