Abstract
The present invention relates to novel micro or mesoporous metal organic frameworks (MOFs) which contain as ligands piperidine based phosphonic acids, as well as a method of synthesising such MOFs and uses of the MOFs themselves.
Claims16
A porous isoreticular metal organic framework (MOF) comprising an organic compound co-ordinated to at least one metal selected from the croup consisting of Co, Ni, Mg, Mn, Fe, Zn, Cd and Ru, wherein the organic compound is of the formula
- PO3CH2X—Y—XCH2PO3
- wherein X is a substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclic amine containing one or more amine groups and Y forms a link between each group and is selected from the group consisting of may be a single bond, —(CH2)n— where n is greater than or equal to 1, —C≡C—, and a cyclic or heterocyclic substituted or unsubstituted ring structure.
