	abstract = {<p>The synthesis, structure, and gas adsorption properties of three new metalorganic frameworks (MOFs) designed from isonicotinic acid (INA) and its fluorinated analogue 3-fluoroisonicotinic acid (FINA) along with CoII as the metal center have been reported. Co-INA-1 ([Co3(INA)4(O)(C2H5OH)3][NO3].C2H5OH.3?H2O; INA=isonicotinic acid) and Co-INA-2 ([Co(INA)2].DMF) are structural isomers as are Co-FINA-1 ([Co3(FINA)4(O)(C2H5OH)2].H2O; FINA=3-fluoroisonicotinic acid) and Co-FINA-2 ([Co(FINA)2].H2O), but the most important thing to note here is that Co-INA-1 and Co-FINA-1 are isostructural as are Co-INA-2 and Co-FINA-2. The effect of partial introduction of fluorine atoms into the framework on the gas uptake properties of MOFs having similar structures has been analyzed experimentally and computationally in isostructural MOFs.</p>},

	abstract = {<p>The synthesis of a SIPr [1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-imidazolin-2-ylidene] derived Kekule diradicaloid with a tetrafluorophenylene spacer (3) has been described. Two synthetic routes have been reported to access 3. The cleavage of C-F bond of C6F6 by SIPr in the presence of BF3 led to double C-F activated compound with two tetrafluoro borate counter anions (2), which upon reduction by lithium metal afforded 3. Alternatively, 3 can be directly accessed in one step by reacting SIPr with C6F6 in presence of Mg metal. Compounds 2 and 3 were well characterized spectroscopically and by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Experimental and computational studies support the cumulenic closed-shell singlet state of 3 with a singlet-triplet energy gap (Delta ES-T) of 23.7 kcal mol(-1).</p>
