title: Postsynthetic ligand exchange for the synthesis of benzotriazole-containing zeolitic imidazolate framework.
abstract: The introduction of a triazole-based ligand to the zeolitic imidazolate framework-7 via a postsynthetic ligand exchange strategy not only maintains its framework, high stability and morphology, but also provides extra uncoordinated nitrogen atoms to improve the π-π and Lewis acid-base interactions.
