Improvement of the Proton Conduction of Copper(II)-Mesoxalate Metal-Organic Frameworks by Strategic Selection of the Counterions.

ABSTRACT: Three copper(II)/mesoxalate-based MOFs with formulas (H₃O)[Cu₉(Hmesox)₆(H₂O)₆Cl]·8H₂O (1), (NH₂Me₂)_0.4(H₃O)_0.6[Cu₉(Hmesox)₆(H₂O)₆Cl]·8H₂O (2), and (enH₂)_0.25(enH)_1.5[Cu₆(Hmesox)₃(mesox)(H₂O)₆Cl_0.5]Cl_0.5·5.25H₂O (3) were synthesized (H₄mesox = mesoxalic acid = 2,2-dihydroxypropanedioic acid, en = ethylenediamine). Essentially, all of the compounds display the same anionic network with a different arrangement of the cations, which have a remarkable effect on the proton conduction
