Powder XRD data demonstrate that the ZBTEC-1 material has a new MOF structure. N-2 sorption studies indicated moderately good surface area (306 m(2) g(-1)) with large size micropores (average pore diameter ca. 0.7 nm) and very high pore volume (1.93 ccg(-1)). C-13 solid state MAS-NMR, FT-IR and UV-visible spectroscopic studies showed the presence of BTEC moieties in the framework. TEM and FE-SEM analysis indicated 30-60 nm diameter size microporous spherical particles for the ZBTEC-1 crystallites. This novel MOF material showed good hydrogen adsorption capacity at 77 K, indicating its potential application in hydrogen storage. (C) 2008 Elsevier Inc.
