Abstract

Using 2,2′-R2-biphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid to bind with a cis-[InO4(μ2-OH)2] octahedron, three novel chiral 3D indium-organic frameworks, [In(μ2-OH)L] [1, L1, R = N(CH3)2; 2, L2, R = OCH3; 3, L3, R = CH3], have been hydrothermally synthesized without chiral reagents. Crystal structure analyses reveal that 1-3 show an unprecedented 4-connected umy topology with the Schläfli symbol (42·64). 1 exhibits high water stability and good sorption selectivity of CO2 over N2, while 3 displays high C2H2, C2H4, and C2H6 uptake capacity at 273 K.
