A new Al-MOF based on a unique column-shaped inorganic building unit exhibiting strongly hydrophilic sorption behaviour.
The new Al-based metal-organic framework [Al(13)(OH)(27)(H(2)O)(6)(BDC-NH(2))(3)Cl(6)(C(3)H(7)OH)(6)] denoted CAU-6 (CAU = Christian-Albrechts-Universität) was solvothermally synthesized in 2-propanol and was thoroughly characterized. The framework structure exhibits a unique column-shaped inorganic building unit, which is based on stacked, corner-sharing Al(13)-clusters. The compound exhibits unprecedented hydrophilicity for metal-organic frameworks.
