	abstract = {<p>Six organicinorganic hybrid materials were synthesized by the in situ oxidation of neocuproine by using MoO3/Na2MoO4 as the catalyst in the presence of Cu(NO3)2. The crystal structures of Mo8-Cu4-PHEN and Mo8-Cu2-5(2PIC) are composed of [Mo8O26]4 polyoxometalate (POM) units, whereas the crystal structure of Mo6-Cu-COPHEN is composed of a [Mo6O19]2 POM unit; both POM units could be considered as the active form of the catalyst. Reaction of the hybrid materials with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (BTC) resulted in the formation of two different coordination polymers (CPs) under different reaction conditions. These CPs, depending on their structural attributes, exhibit distinct differences in the adsorption of H2, CO2, and water. The use of 2-methylpyridine instead of neocuproine does not give any oxidation products under the same reaction conditions due to the incorrect positioning of the methyl group with respect to the CuII center.</p>},

	abstract = {<p>The metal ions in a neutral Zn-MOF constructed from tritopic triacid H3L with inherent concave features, rigid core, and peripheral flexibility are found to exist in two distinct SBUs, that is, 0D and 1D. This has allowed site-selective postsynthetic metal exchange (PSME) to be investigated and reactivities of the metal ions in two different environments in coordination polymers to be contrasted for the first time. Site-selective transmetalation of Zn ions in the discrete environment is shown to occur in a single crystal-to-single crystal (SCSC) fashion, with metal ions such as Fe3+, Ru3+, Cu2+, Co2+, etc., whereas those that are part of 1D SBU sustain structural integrity, leading to novel bimetallic MOFs, which are inaccessible by conventional approaches. To the best of our knowledge, site-selective postsynthetic exchange of an intraframework metal ion in a MOF that contains metal ions in discrete as well as polymeric SBUs is heretofore unprecedented.</p>},
