3-Fold-Interpenetrated Uranium–Organic Frameworks: New Strategy for Rationally Constructing Three-Dimensional Uranyl Organic Materials

Abstract

The first series of 3-fold-interpenetrated uranium-organic frameworks, UOF-1 and UOF-2, have been synthesized by hydrothermal reactions of flexible semirigid carboxylic acids and uranyl nitrate. Structure analyses indicate that UOF-1 and UOF-2 possess flu and pts topologies, respectively.
