Abstract
New levels of surface area are achieved in a coordination polymer (UMCM-2, University of Michigan Crystalline Material) derived from zinc-mediated coordination copolymerization of a dicarboxylic and tricarboxylic acid. In addition to a large micropore contribution to the surface area, mesopores are also present. In contrast to the recently reported coordination copolymer UMCM-1, which has a mesoporous channel, UMCM-2 is built from three types of cages. In spite of exceptional porosity, both of these coordination polymers are thermally robust. Hydrogen uptake performance of UMCM-2 approaches 7 wt% at 77 K.
