Asymmetric linker generates intrinsically disordered metal–organic framework with local MOF-74 structure
Here, we report an intrinsically disordered MOF in the MOF-74 family, Mg<sub>2-<i>x</i></sub>(as-dobpdc) (as-dobpdc<sup>4-</sup> = 3',4-dioxidobiphenyl-3,4'-dicarboxylate). Despite the absence of crystallinity, this material exhibits local ordering consistent with that of its crystalline isomers, maintains porosity, and exhibits a high density of open metal sites.
