Abstract

A new two-dimensional (2D) metal organic framework, Cu-1(4-TBA)(1)(DMBP)(1).DMF (Cu-TBA-3), has been synthesized under solvothermal condition from transition metal cation Cu(II), predesigned ligand 4-(1H-tetrazole-5-yl)benzoic acid (4-TBA) and coligand 4,4'-dimethy1-2,2'-bipyridine (DMBP). The structure has been determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography which shows layered 2D structure with square shaped one-dimensional channels. Cu-TBA-3 shows 0.69 wt% H-2 (at 77 K, 1 atm) and 1.65 mmol/g CO2 (at 298 K, 1 atm) uptake.
