Two-dimensional electrically conductive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising model electrodes for use in electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs). However, a number of fundamental questions about the behaviour of this class of materials in EDLCs remain unanswered, including the effect of the identity of the metal node and organic linker molecule on capacitive performance and the limitations of current conductive MOFs in these devices relative to traditional activated carbon electrode materials. Herein, we address both these questions via a detailed study of the capacitive performance of the framework Cu<sub>3</sub>(HHTP)<sub>2</sub> (HHTP = 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene) with an acetonitrile-based electrolyte, finding a specific capacitance of 110 – 114 F g<sup>−1</sup> at current densities of 0.04 – 0.05 A g<sup>−1</sup> and a modest rate capability. By, directly comparing its performance with the previously reported analogue, Ni<sub>3</sub>(HITP)<sub>2</sub> (HITP = 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexaiminotriphenylene), we illustrate that capacitive performance is largely independent of the identity of the metal node and organic linker molecule in these nearly isostructural MOFs. Importantly, this result suggests that EDLC performance in general is uniquely defined by the 3D structure of the electrodes and the electrolyte, a significant finding not demonstrated using traditional electrode materials. Finally, we probe the limitations of Cu<sub>3</sub>(HHTP)<sub>2</sub> in EDLCs, finding a limited cell voltage window of 1.3 V and only a modest capacitance retention of 81 % over 30,000 cycles, both significantly lower than state-of-the-art porous carbons. These important insights will aid the design of future conductive MOFs with greater EDLC performances.

Crystalline, electrically conductive, and intrinsically porous materials are rare. Layered 2D metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) break this trend. They are porous crystals that exhibit high electrical conductivity and are novel platforms for studying fundamentals of electricity and magnetism in two dimensions.1-8 Despite demonstrated applications,9-13 electrical transport in these remains poorly understood because of a lack of single crystal studies. Here, studies of single crystals of two 2D MOFs, Ni3(HITP)2 and Cu3(HHTP)2, uncover critical insights into their structure and transport. Conductivity measurements down to 0.3 K suggest metallicity for mesoscopic single crystals of Ni3(HITP)2, which contrasts with apparent activated conductivity for polycrystalline films. Microscopy studies further reveal that these MOFs are not isostructural as previously reported.14 Notably, single rods exhibit conductivities up to 150 S/cm, which persist even after prolonged exposure to the ambient. These single crystal studies confirm that 2D MOFs hold promise as molecularly tunable platforms for fundamental science and applications where porosity and conductivity are critical.<br>

Electrically conductive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) provide a rare example of porous materials that can efficiently transport electrical current, a combination favorable for a variety of technological applications. The vast majority of such MOFs are highly anisotropic in both their structures and properties: only two electrically conductive MOFs reported to date exhibit cubic structures that enable isotropic charge transport. Here, we report a new family of intrinsically porous frameworks made from rare earths and hexahydroxytriphenylene that are cubic, porous, and intrinsically conductive with conductivities reaching 10−5 S/cm and surface areas of up to 780 m2/g. By expanding the list of MOFs with isotropic charge transport, these results will help improve our understanding of design strategies for porous electronic materials.<br>
