Abstract

An unprecedented metal-organic framework, NJU-Bai6, formed by piling up the nanocages Cu6(PIP)4, Cu12(PIP)8, and Cu12(PIP)24 through sharing faces of the "opened" triangular and square windows, has been designed and structurally characterized. Very interestingly, it exhibits the third highest selectivity of CO2 over N2 with the value about 60 at room temperature.
