Layered double hydroxide (LDH) is employed as a layered template to synthesize ultrathin Ni-MOF-74 nanosheets. The two-dimensional structure brings numerous exposed unsaturated active sites and enhanced conductivity for Ni-MOF-74.

Solid-state mechanochemistry revealed a novel polymorph of the mercury(II) imidazolate framework, based on square-grid (sql) topology layers. Reaction monitoring and periodic density functional theory calculations show that the sql-structure is of higher stability than the previously reported three-dimensional structure, with the unexpected stabilization of a lower dimensionality structure explained by contributions of weak interactions, which include short C-H···Hg contacts.

A polydentate ligand bridged by a fluorene group, namely 9,9-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-2,7-bis(pyridin-4-yl)fluorene (L), has been prepared under solvothermal conditions in acetonitrile. Crystals of the three-dimensional metal–organic framework (MOF) poly[[[μ3-9,9-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-2,7-bis(pyridin-4-yl)fluorene-κ3 N:N′:O]bis(methanol-κO)(μ-sulfato-κ2 O:O′)nickel(II)] methanol disolvate], {[Ni(SO4)(C27H24N2O2)(CH3OH)]·2CH3OH} n , (I), were obtained by the solvothermal reaction of L and NiSO4 in methanol. The ligand L forms a two-dimensional network in the crystallographic bc plane via two groups of O—H...N hydrogen bonds and neighbouring two-dimensional planes are completely parallel and stack to form a three-dimensional structure. In (I), the NiII ions are linked by sulfate ions through Ni—O bonds to form inorganic chains and these Ni-containing chains are linked into a three-dimensional framework via Ni—O and Ni—N bonds involving the polydentate ligand L. With one of the hydroxy groups of L coordinating to the NiII atom, the torsion angle of the hydroxyethyl group changes from that of the uncoordinated molecule. In addition, the adsorption properties of (I) with carbon dioxide were investigated.
