title: Three Highly Stable Cobalt MOFs Based on "Y"-Shaped Carboxylic Acid: Synthesis and Absorption of Anionic Dyes.
abstract: Three Co(II) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were synthesized employing a rational design approach. On the basis of the different structures of three complexes, we tested their absorption properties toward two anionic dyes. The absorption results indicate that not only uncoordinated functional groups in the structure play an important role in adsorbing capacity but also physical forces can affect absorbing ability. Water stability testing shows that three crystals display high stability in aqueous solutions with different pH values. To our delight, the framework integrity of three complexes can be well-retained even after absorbing dyes.
