title: Novel functionalized metal-organic framework based on unique hexagonal prismatic clusters.
abstract: The novel porous 3D metal-organic framework synthesized from fluorenone-2,7-dicarboxylate contains zinc-glycolate-carboxylate layers in which the unique hexagonal prismatic [Zn(6)(OCH(2)CH(2)O)(6)] clusters are connected by planar [Zn(3)(OCH(2)CH(2)O)(COO)(2)] motifs; the pore surface is furnished with carbonyl groups and open metal sites.
