An Ultramicroporous Physisorbent Sustained by a Trifecta of Directional Supramolecular Interactions.

ABSTRACT: 2D and 3D porous coordination networks (PCNs) as exemplified by metal-organic frameworks, MOFs, have garnered interest for their potential utility as sorbents for molecular separations and storage. The inherent modularity of PCNs has enabled the development of crystal engineering strategies for systematic fine-tuning of pore size and chemistry in families of related PCNs. The same cannot be said about one-dimensional (1D) coordination polymers, CPs, which are understudied with respect to porosity. Here, we report that permanent porosity is exhibited by the previously reported family of linear (L) 1D porous CPs, PCPs, of formula [M(bipy)(NO₃)₂(H₂O)₂]n (L-chn-1-M-NO3: M = Co, Ni; bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine). Their pore structure comprises 1D channels s
