3-D Metal-Organic Framework Based on Cationic 2-D Cuprate Layers: Cu3(OH)4[C10H6(SO3)2]

Abstract

We describe herein a three-dimensional Cu(II) based metal-organic framework, copper hydroxide 2,6-naphthalenedisulfonate, Cu3(OH)4[C10H6(SO3)2]. The compound contains embedded positively charged 2-D copper oxide layers. This higher dimensionality of inorganic connectivity leads to far greater thermal stability (375-deg C vs 245-deg C) over our previously reported three-dimensional metal-organic framework containing embedded 1-D cuprate chains. The structure, crystallinity, morphology, and properties of the material are discussed. The magnetic susceptibility exhibits a broad maximum centered at 80 K, indicative of low-dimensional antiferromagnetic interactions. Control of inorganic dimensionality embedded within an MOF is an often overlooked yet key feature in determining the stability and important properties of MOFs such as adsorption, conductivity, and magnetism.
